playerglobal in maven repo?
Compiler release is failing [1] due to playerglobal not being found in maven repo. I checked and I can’t find com.adobe.flash there [2] any ideas?

Posted by Josh Tynjala <jo...@bowlerhat.dev>.
flex-sdk-converter-maven-extension 1.1.0 has been officially released. The
develop branch of the royale-compiler, royale-typedefs, and royale-asjs
repositories now use this new version. It resolves the issue where
playerglobal.swc could not be downloaded by Maven.

Re: playerglobal in maven repo?
Posted by Josh Tynjala <jo...@bowlerhat.dev>.
In order to resolve this issue, I'm starting the release process for
flex-sdk-converter-maven-extension 1.1.0. As release manager, I just
submitted RC 1 to the Flex PMC. If you are a member of the Flex PMC, please
go try it out, and add your +1 vote, if things look okay.
To build the flex-sdk-converter-maven-extension source release, extract the
.zip file and run `mvn clean install` in the root directory with pom.xml.
OPTIONAL: After installing RC1 locally, you can also test that it works
with royale-compiler. Here's what you need to do:
(Prerequisite: Make sure that you have the FLASHPLAYER_DEBUGGER env var
pointing to a Flash Player projector executable. If you don't have this
executable already, the royale-compiler README explains how you can still
download it from Adobe.)
1. In royale-compiler, go into .mvn/extensions.xml and replace the version
number with 1.1.0
2. Go into ~/.m2/repository/com/adobe/flash/ and move the "framework"
directory somewhere else temporarily. This lets you put it back later, if
something goes wrong.
3. In royale-compiler, run `mvn clean install -P option-with-swf`.

Re: playerglobal in maven repo?

Just replying with the error message you get if you forget `-s
settings-template.xml` so that it will show up in search.
[ERROR] Extension
org.apache.flex.utilities.converter:flex-sdk-converter-maven-extension:1.1.0-SNAPSHOT
or one of its dependencies could not be resolved: Could not find artifact
org.apache.flex.utilities.converter:flex-sdk-converter-maven-extension:jar:1.1.0-SNAPSHOT
It means that you're missing `-s settings-template.xml`. So you need to run
`mvn install -s settings-template.xml` instead of just `mvn install`.

Re: playerglobal in maven repo?
Posted by Josh Tynjala <jo...@bowlerhat.dev>.
I deployed flex-sdk-converter-extension 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT to Apache snapshots
to allow testing of my bugfix. I updated the royale-compiler develop branch
to use it, along with playerglobal 32.0 instead of 20.0 because Adobe no
longer makes 20.0 available for download.
Similar to how it worked in the past, before flex-sdk-converter-extension
1.0 was released, you are now required to tell Maven to use
settings-template.xml (but I think only the first time) to find this
snapshot when building royale-compiler.
mvn clean install -P option-with-swf -s settings-template.xml
Using settings-template.xml is temporary. I plan to start the full release
process for 1.1.0 as soon as others verify that it's working for them too.
So please pull from the develop branch of royale-compiler and try to build
using the command above. Thanks!
I'll hold off on updating royale-asjs to use 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT and
playerglobal 32.0 until Yishay creates the release branch in that repo, so
that the release branches remain in sync.

Re: playerglobal in maven repo?
Posted by Josh Tynjala <jo...@bowlerhat.dev>.
I think I want to try publishing flex-sdk-converter-extension
1.1.0-SNAPSHOT to Apache's Maven snapshots repo. Then, we can use the "-s
settings-template.xml" trick to get our build to use that snapshot version.
This is how we did it with 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT before Chris released the proper
1.0.0. That'll at least get us unstuck. Later, I'll try to do a proper
release of 1.1.0.

Re: playerglobal in maven repo?

Okay, I rebuilt flex-sdk-converter-extension on my local machine (it's in
the flex-utilities repo, for anyone interested). If I change the URL for
sdk-installer-config-4.0.xml from http to https, it successfully downloads.
So, for some reason, the 301 redirect is not being handled correctly.
Presumably, something changed on the server. Perhaps it was still serving
http in the past, and it was forced to https more recently.
I found this explanation about redirects in Java:
> After discussion among Java Networking engineers, it is felt that we
shouldn't automatically follow redirect from one protocol to another, for

security consequences. Thus the fix is to return the server responses for

information. It's the application's responsibility to follow the redirect.
Looks like flex-sdk-converter-extension needs to update this URL and get a
new release, since the redirect from http to https won't work.

Re: playerglobal in maven repo?
Posted by Josh Tynjala <jo...@bowlerhat.dev>.
I tried changing to playerglobal 32.0, and it is still failing.
Interestingly, I see these lower level exceptions in the log when I add the
-X option to mvn:
Caused by:
org.apache.flex.utilities.converter.retrievers.exceptions.RetrieverException:
Error parsing 'sdk-installer-config-4.0.xml'
Caused by: org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: Premature end of file.
So it's trying to download
http://flex.apache.org/installer/sdk-installer-config-4.0.xml (where it
will find the URL to playerglobal.swc), and something is going wrong
parsing that file.
It seems to be valid XML, so maybe it's getting some kind of error document
from the web server instead of the proper file.
I'll keep digging...

Re: playerglobal in maven repo?
Posted by Josh Tynjala <jo...@bowlerhat.dev>.
I seem to recall that Adobe stopped making most older versions of
playerglobal.swc available for download from their servers. I think it
might be only version 32.0 that's still available.
We have flash.version set to 20.0 in our pom.xml:
<flash.version>20.0</flash.version>
We might need to change that to 32.0.
Most of us wouldn't notice that the download wasn't available because we
installed playerglobal months/years ago, before Adobe removed their
downloads, and the Maven extension probably doesn't try to download it
again, if it's already available locally.
I'm going to try to see if I can mess with my local Maven cache to trigger
this error on my computer.

We use some kind of Maven plugin/extension that downloads playerglobal.swc
from Adobe.
I think it's the flex-sdk-converter-maven-extension referenced in
.mvn/extensions.xml
