Hi,
I just staged a first release candidate of the Apache Flex Tool API 1.0.0 at Apaches maven staging repository. The Flex Tool API is a simple set of generally two interfaces which allows it to easily use the Flex tools (most prominent one: the compiler) to be used by external tools (Mainly Flexmojos for now). It doesn't provide any new features to Flex itself from a users point of view. Using the Flex Tool API a project can provide an implementation of the FlexToolGroup interface and register the tools it provides (MXMLC, COMPX, DIGEST, etc.). There is also a FlexToolRegistry implementation that will return any FlexToolGroups available in the current classpath. As soon as this module is released, I will update the Flex SDK, Flacon and FalconJX to provide tool groups. ? Now a little explanation as this is the first time we are doing a release of a Maven project here: There is a public location where you should be able to download the artifacts: https://repository.apache.org/service/local/repositories/orgapacheflex-1000/content/org/apache/flex/flex-tool-api/1.0.0/ As far as I understood it this Artifact will be the one we are voting on: https://repository.apache.org/service/local/repositories/orgapacheflex-1000/content/org/apache/flex/flex-tool-api/1.0.0/flex-tool-api-1.0.0-source-release.zip If you have a login to the Nexus, things can be a lot more comfortable though. Simply go to: https://repository.apache.org/index.html#stagingRepositories and login. Here you will have a nice Web UI for browsing the release. As soon as you have logged in, select: Staging Repositories<https://repository.apache.org/index.html#> in the Build Promotion section of the Navigation on the left hand side. * As soon as you have selected the repository orgapacheflex-1000 you can select the tab: Content and have a look at the repository content. If the vote passes, I will set Close the Staging repository and hereby release the artifacts to Apaches Maven Repo. If it fails, I will drop the repo and nothing will be released. Chris
