I am able to download the latest nightly successfully using the Apache Flex Installer 3.2.
I ran into some issues with the SDK, though: 1) jsc and jsc.bat in js/bin don't yet set -js-output-type=jsc. 2) Should js/bin also have a compcjsc and compcjsc.bat files that invoke js/lib/compc.jar, but set -js-output-type=jsc? 3) externc is only available as a JAR file. There are no executables in the js/bin folder that can invoke js/lib/externc.jar. If we want externc to run easily from the command line, the js/bin folder should have externc and externc.bat. 4) When using externc, if I need classes from JS.swc, I'm not supposed to link to the compiled JS.swc. I encountered errors when I originally tried, and Mike explained that instead, I need the raw JS files (like w3c_dom1.js and others). These raw JS files are not included in the SDK that I installed, so I can't easily create new externs that reference any classes defined in JS.swc. I'm forced to find these raw JS files in the repo instead. - Josh On Fri, Jul 31, 2015 at 8:24 AM, Alex Harui <aha...@adobe.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I have DataBindingTest working as well as it ever has (not pixel-perfect > yet, but getting closer), and I also tried Carlos’ suggestion and > installed the latest nightly build on Windows and was able to use Notepad > and the Command Prompt to cross-compile DataBindingTest without any > further setup.
