Hi Guys,
I just finished deploying a new version of Flexmojos 7.1.0-SNAPSHOT
This Version brings both support for Falcon as well as support for Maven 3.1
and above.
On the "downside" Flexmojos is now no longer compatable with Maven 3.0 and no
default compiler and framework is available. Now you explicitly need to add a
dependency to the compiler as well as the framework in order to have things
working.
If you want to get started with Falcon, setup your artifact to build normally
with the default flex compiler.
Before you can start using Falcon, you need to generate the artifacts. This is
done by checking out the latest Falcon sources and building the "main" and
"oem" targets. After this by using the "maven.xml" ant scripts "install" target
the missing artifacts should be generated and deployed to your maven local
repository and you should be ready to go. Hopefully I'll have this automated by
having SNAPSHOT versions automatically deployed by Apaches Jenkins.
With the Falcon artifacts in place, all you have to do, ist o switch the
compiler artifact to:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.flex.compiler</groupId>
<artifactId>falcon-compiler</artifactId>
<version>0.0.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
</dependency>
But be warned, the results are not quite those of your previous built ... not
yet.
I have noticed problems with:
- Including ResourceBundles
- My model classes that dispatch events manually can't seem to access
"dispatchEvent"
I bet there will be more problems, but the more people start using Falcon and
build their applications with it, I think we should be getting a more and more
stable compiler :)
