I’m all set to try to release Apache Flex BlazeDS. Some customer complained about BlazeDS not working with more recent Tomcat versions, but I’d say we make the first BlazeDS release more about parity with the Adobe version and save handling newer Tomcat versions for later.
The main issue I think you are alluding to is whether we could actually get through the release process for BlazeDS within the next week or so. Maybe Erik is willing to delay in order for us to try it. Actually, I think we could just copy a few classes or the jar from the BlazeDS repo into the Flex SDK like we do for TLF. We don’t release TLF separately, so could eliminate the BlazeDS dependency in the same way. We copy TLF's sources and its SWC into the SDK as part of the SDK build. I believe the SDK only uses a few BlazeDS classes to parse services-config.xml files and not all of the other classes. -Alex On 12/4/14, 1:13 PM, "Christofer Dutz" <christofer.d...@c-ware.de> wrote: >Well I would like to have Apache Flex BlazeDS instead of the Adobe >version, but I doubt that we would be able to ship that prior to Flex >4.14 :-( > >Could anyone here specify what's actually preventing us?
