Compiling the Flex SDK on Linux

Hi,

With a little hacking the Flex SDK will compile on Linux.

Anyone know what would be the best way to fix these issue for Linux?

4. StylableStageText.as fails to compile. Can be conditionally removed from MobileComponentClasses?
5. StageTextSkinBase.as, StageTextAreaSkin.as and StageTextInputSkin.as fail to compile. Can be conditionally removed from MobileThemeClasses.as?

https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33529

Thanks,
Justin

Right StageText is AIR 3 or something like that.

I guess you should be able to build and test a mobile app on Linux?  But
to get it to compile will require a later airglobal.swc.

Not exactly. It's compiling StageText in but the SDK doesn't directly use it.

I'm guessing stageText doesn't exist in AIR on Linux?

Thanks,
