The CrossBridge license doesn't matter too much. It will be a compiler pre-requisite just like Adobe Extension Manager. I did use the sample code that is MIT licensed to build the md5 swc. I'm checking with Adobe legal on the rules for that code.
Good question about NativeExtension. Does the installer only run on Intel CPUs? Otherwise, I think it would be more work. We'd have to decide on a C compiler and project tools as well. I thought we'd given up on Linux installer in favor of ant. -Alex On 6/2/14 12:47 PM, "Justin Mclean" <jus...@classsoftware.com> wrote: >Hi, > >> I think it is worth adding CrossBridge as a build prerequisite to the >> Installer. > >CrossBridge seems to be MIT licences [1] but doesn't contain a license >file that I can find.
