[VOTE] Release Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.0 - RC1

Please vote to approve Apache Flex SDK Installer version 3.0 to be released.

Issues addressed in this release:
- Installer upgraded to run ant scripts in the binary packages it installs.
- Dev builds are now hidden by default.  To see dev builds, right-click and choose
  "Show Dev Builds"
- You can enable a cache of downloads by right-clicking and configuring the cache

The Apache Flex SDK 4.12.0 RC2 is configured to use ant scripts for installation.
You can determine that the ant script is running because the order of the options
has the font libraries last (otherwise the remoting option is last).  The installer
should also be able to install the Nightly for FlexJS.  If you want to try installing
a nightly for Falcon or FalconJX, please choose an existing Flex SDK folder.

The source distributions for Windows and Mac are available here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/flex/installer/3.0/rc1/

The binary distributions as a convenience for the respective platforms,
available here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/flex/installer/3.0/rc1/binaries

As agreed, there are no Linux binaries for this version.

Before voting  please review the sections:
What are the ASF requirements on approving a release? at
http://www.apache.org/dev/ and approving a release  at
http://www.apache.org/dev/release.html#approving-a-release

Vote
[ ] +1 Approve the release
[ ] -1 Veto the release (please provide specific comments)

This vote will be open for at least 72 hours.

Regards,
Alex

Hi,

Hi,

Tested on OSX. Had a few minor issue due to new security model on Mavericks (can't run because application is not signed) but not sure that we can do anything about that.

-1 (binding) because of:
- README, RELEASE_GUIDE and RELEASE_NOTES need updating.
- build error when running ant on source package
- framework/flex-config.xml didn't contain selected AIR/FP versions
- Cache not working  (when cached enabled and installer run for a second time looks like everything is downloaded for a second time)

Build error was:
BUILD FAILED
/Users/justinmclean/Downloads/ApacheFlexNewInstaller/installer/build.xml:270: /Users/justinmclean/Downloads/ApacheFlexNewInstaller/ant_on_air/bin does not exist.

Other minor issues:
- NOTICE + RELEASE_NOTES have wrong year.
- download cache dialog has no padding
- download cache buttons look disabled
- download cache "x" doesn't close window
- when switching to german, all select air and flash version text is still in english
- while cache is created it doesn't see to be caching everything (eg Flex SDK)
- xml config file is cached but unable to run app with no connection
- noticed 404 request when installing Flex SDK for "https://www.apache.org/dist/flex/4.11.0/binaries/apache-flex-sdk-installer-config.xml"
- also noticed our track installer http request also requests js and css files - it probably doesn't need to do that

Also tested:
- MD5s and signatures match
- install log is readable

Thanks,
Justin

-1 Binding

I downloaded the source and tried to build using the command line
instructions.  It seems like the README file has not been updated.  Quite a
lot has changed since the last release.   Especially, the sections:

"How to build the installer using ANT (no Flash Builder or any other IDE
required):" and
"How to set up the project for working with Adobe Flash Builder (or any
other IDE)"

Also when I ran "ant build" in the installer directory, the build is
failing with this error message:

BUILD FAILED
C:\Users\bigosmallm\AppData\Local\Temp\apache-flex-sdk-installer-3.0.0-src\installer\build.xml:270:
C:\Users\bigosmallm\AppData\Local\Temp\apache-flex-sdk-installer-3.0.0-src\ant_on_air\bin
does not exist.

Thanks,
Om

I think this RC should cause an upgrade dialog.  Not sure.  Om might know for sure.
