[jira] [Resolved] (FLEX-33089) Clarify usage of playerglobal.swc
and airglobal.swc
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33089?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]
Carol Frampton resolved FLEX-33089.
-----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: Apache Flex 4.8 (parity release)
The Adobe AIR SDK and Adobe Flash playerglobal.swc are system requirements for Flex. They are found via the AIR_HOME and PLAYERGLOBAL_HOME environment variables or setting the equivalents in the env.properties file in the root of the SDK.
> Clarify usage of playerglobal.swc and airglobal.swc
> ---------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLEX-33089
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33089
> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Project Management
> Reporter: Alex Harui
> Fix For: Apache Flex 4.8 (parity release)
>
>
> As discussed in [1], Flex requires
> 1) playerglobal.swc to compile the majority of the Flex components
> 2) airglobal.swc to compile the Flex components targeted at AIR
> 3) many pieces of the AIR Integration kit which are need to do Flex mobile development
> We might need clarification for 3), but for now we need to find out how to use these files while abiding by their license requirements and complying with the ASF's restrictions on incompatible license (http://www.apache.org/legal/resolved.html).
> According to Alex in [1] those two files are covered by this license:
> http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/adobe_flex_software_development_kit-combined-20110916_0930.pdf
> And it seems like they're only needed at build time, so users of Flex could get them independently.
