[PROPOSAL] Preparing 4.10 release (was: locale problems w/ eclipse and SDK 4.9)
Hi,
Because of issues relative to locales in the SDK 4.9 which are fixed on 4.10
develop branch:
- Can't use Flash Builder for projects using locales other than en_US
- Can't use the apache and experimental lib with locales other than english
I think a new release needs to be done.
Before doing it, I would like to make a call to contributors, committers to
translate locales for the apache and experimental lib.
Before writing this call and the instructions to translate the locales in
the user list, I would like you to tell me if there are some objections
first and who is volunteer to be release manager for the 4.10 (I think I
can't as I'm not PMC).
Thanks,
-Fred

Subject: Re: locale problems w/ eclipse and SDK 4.9
Actually I created a macro in ANT to compile the resource bundle. That
macro failed to compile the resource bundle for other languages (I tried
for fr_FR & ja_JP) except en_US. when i point the sdk to 4.6 it worked well
for all the languages also. I copied the macro in the JIRA also.
P.S.
But Thanks to you for pointing out the issue. I found the solution in this
email thread and its working fine now :)

RE: [PROPOSAL] Preparing 4.10 release (was: locale problems w/
eclipse and SDK 4.9)
Posted by Bjorn Svensson <bs...@esri.com>.
FYI - This 4.9.1 RC1 fixes at least the "locale" issue that I had --- with the workaround being to manually replace en_US with {locale} in framework/flex-config.xml file.
I tested using command line mxmlc and with the 4.9.1 release candidate I no longer have to edit the framework/flex-config.xml file.
Thank you :)

But I am hoping not to have to do all of that work myself. Anyone want to help out? I think the locale issue has been taken care of.
The list looks like:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33390 (SVG transcoding broken)
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33388 (TLF cut and paste)
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33384 (TLF blinking cursors) AeonGraphical theme missing assets Locale issue
Plus, we need to investigate at least these two:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33381 (text measurement issue)
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33380 (mobile project issue)

Hi,
I made a 4.9.1 release candidate if you want to check it out and see if it fixes the locale issue. Alex wants a few other fixes into the 4.9.1 release so we'll hold off on voting it in as an official release.
Apache Flex 4.9.1 RC can be found here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/flex/sdk/4.9.1/rc1/

Is it an issue that you can replicate? At this point I think it would be easier to release a 4.9.1 rather than a 4.10 as no has step forward willing to do so. If the suggested "{locale}" change fixes this issue I'll add that to 4.9 and make a 4.9.1 release.
Thanks,
Justin

Hi,
If you switch the SDK to 4.6/4.8, you'll see there's a reference to
"{locale}" within there're all the resource bundles listed.

Hi,
- The line 37 is for the default locale
- The line 83 is where FB gonna find the other ones
If you look at SDK 4.6/4.8, it is as I recommend and it worked for eveyboby,
I really don't know how your project can find the other resource bundles.
I really want to know if others have problems working with locales at this
point.

No it just points to the base path of the SDK in my case
/Users/justinmclean/Documents/ApacheFlex4.9SDK
Both merged into code and RSL option make no difference and both work BTW.

It's what we did too, with no luck.
How looks like your flex-config.xml in ./framework at line 83 ?
How looks like, in your FB/SDK 4.9 project, the SDK library path (project

Thanks Justin.
What would be great too, is the users willing to help translating to their
own language the apache and experimental locales, could do it easily, I can
do an how-to, so, even user who don't like to checkout the all project can
help.
