[FalconJX][FlexJS] Changing location of externs SWCs
Hi,
I've been working on getting FB projects to be able to build the flex-asjs
SWCs including the SWC with COMPILE::JS=true (which we currently also call
an externs SWC but we will probably now call it a "JS" SWC).
I think it will be easier for FB if in an installed FlexJS SDK, the
externs SWCs like js.swc, jquery.swc, gcl.swc, etc are located in a
frameworks/js/libs folder instead of their current location (js/libs).
Any objections or other thoughts?
Thanks,
-Alex

But be carefullreverting your branch ... cause this is where I continued working on the maven build.

Well, it isn't so much that the project structure makes more sense or not
that is driving the externs move. It is really about how easy it is to
specify where to find the externs SWCs. By moving them, there is one less
"Linked Resource" to specify in FB, but you still have to specify one that
points to flex-asjs. Since JSC is working in FDT, I guess I'll revert the
move of the externs SWCs. The project structure changes will stay though.
The project structure changes should even help FDT be used to develop the
framework SWCs.

JSC is working, but I doubt it’s that big a deal to change the project type definition.
I don’t think we should hold off on changing to a structure which makes more sense because of this.

OK, if it is already not working then I think I will push these changes.
I'll do it later today unless other objections surface.
Thoughts?

Yes. It’s current. They do not have a template for FlexJS The project type probably does not work.
I’ll probably just fix the project definition and create a template and end it to them for the next version…

Interesting. Are you using a recent version? FlexJSJX.swc and
FlexJSUI.swc haven't existed for a few releases.

BTW, I think I found where the swc locations are specified in FDT.
Here’s the locations for FlexJS:
<swcs>
<swc sdkKinds="flex4">
<path>frameworks/libs/player/{playerVersion}/playerglobal.swc</path>
</swc>
<swc sdkKinds="flex4">
<path>frameworks/as/libs/FlexJSJX.swc</path>
</swc>
<swc sdkKinds="flex4">
<path>frameworks/as/libs/FlexJSUI.swc</path>
</swc>
<swc sdkKinds="flex4">
<path>frameworks/as/libs/MXMLCClasses.swc</path>
</swc>
</swcs>
And here’s the locations for “JSC” projects:
<swcs>
<swc sdkKinds="flex4" sharedRuntime="true">
<path>frameworks/libs/player/{playerVersion}/playerglobal.swc</path>
</swc>
<swc sdkKinds="flex4" sharedRuntime="true">
<path>js/libs/js.swc</path>
</swc>
</swcs>

Hmm. Do you know if they are expecting js.swc to be in a known place?
I'd hate to totally break FDT support. Maybe I'll give them a couple of

Right now I've got all extern/typedef SWCs in frameworks/js/libs including
the xxxJS.swc files for the FlexJS projects.

Re: [FalconJX][FlexJS] Changing location of externs SWCs

Well, FDT has a “Use As Runtime Shared Code” checkbox which is enabled by default for playerglobal and js.swc. Those are the two swcs enabled by default if you start a AS project for FlexJS. I’m not sure how it determines that under the hood. Presumably, it’s hard coded.
I know they have a mechanism for specifying if a swc file is supposed to be cross-compiled in the template file on a case-by-case basis.
It would be a “nice to have” if there’s some way for IDEs to know which swcs are which automatically. I’m not sure whether the best way to do this is by swc location, convention, meta-data, or what…

Does any of this effect how IDEs can determine if a swc is an extern/typdef or a regular swc?

Well from the maven side both will be created in the modules that contain the source-code, so these changes don't really matter to the Maven build.

I am wondering if frameworks/libs/js would be a better location? This way,
all the swcs are in under frameworks/libs.

I think that might result in definition conflicts for people who have
