Issue with ant build files for flex
Hi there,
I've manager to get the Flex SDK compile build working with no issue but I'm unable to build individual projects from the build.xml files.
In build_framework.xml we have:
<taskdef resource="flexTasks.tasks" classpath="${FLEX_HOME}/ant/lib/flexTasks.jar"/>
But in advanced datagrid project (and other) build.xml files we have:
<taskdef resource="flexTasks.tasks" classpath="${FLEX_HOME}/lib/flexTasks.jar"/>
It's missing "ant" from the path or flexTasks.jar should live in /lib not /ant/lib.
Can anyone confirm this is an issue, fix and check in (I'm not a committer).
Thanks,
Justin

You may submit patches once we get the issues migrated, which should
hopefully be this week, but they won't be acted on until we get our first
"parity" release.
I agree we have a momentum issue as legal issues continue to delay us.

Hi Alex,
Just an idea. Why not open everything up for JIRA submissions/patches after the initial JIRA release? JIRA bugs imported after that can always be marked as duplicates and/or linked to any newer entered JIRA issues as required.
Not being able to submit patches until end of February may mean people start to loose interest in doing so and creates a barrier for Flex developers at large being involved (in my opinion).
I assume there's no way that this process can be speeded up with community help (happy to help if I can) or perhaps by releasing the JIRA issues in smaller batches? Don't take this the wrong way I know you've been working hard at this and I can't imagine how much work it's been to get the project to this stage, it just as a Flex developer I'm a little impatient in wanting to contribute to the project.
Another idea. Is there any way the whiteboard area can be opened up to people other than the current list of committers?
Thanks,
Justin

I'm shooting for SDK bugs this week. There is a lot of legal issues with
the rest of the drop and it might be end of February, especially with me
being out for a couple of weeks.

OK I'll hold off until then. I know you're working hard at this and it taken a little longer than expected because of the legal issues and the complexities involved.
Can I ask what's your estimate to when we have the code drop and JIRA migrated. I think you mentioned something about going to China for a couple of weeks soon is this likely to delay the initial drop/JIRA migration?
Thanks,
Justin

I would prefer if you would wait until we get all the code in and the JIRA
bugs migrated.

Fair enough.
It would be a good change to make as the time to compile the entire framework (7 min on my machine) would be much greater than just compiling a single project. Should I raise a JIRA issue for it?
Thanks,
Justin

We only tested the instructions in the README. Nothing else is expected to
work at this time.
