select target flash player version in installer

Hi,

I recently tried the new Installer for Flex 4.9.0. Maybe I missed something, but I remember some weeks ago I read on the list, that it is possible to select the target version on the flash player in the installer. Maybe I am wrong, but this is what I remember.

I installed the Flex 4.9 with the installer and I can find a 11.1 and a 11.4 playerglobal.swc in frameworks/lib/player.

But want 11.5 as my target version because of some nice new features in this version.

How can I target for 11.5? Do I have to compile the SDK with the other target version for myself?

Thanks!

Hi,

You can do,  but It may be easier to to just edit the framework/flex-confog.xml file and change this lines:
    <!-- Specifies the minimum player version that will run the compiled SWF. -->
   <target-player>11.1</target-player>

    <!-- Specifies the version of the compiled SWF -->
   <swf-version>14</swf-version>

To:
    <!-- Specifies the minimum player version that will run the compiled SWF. -->
   <target-player>11.5</target-player>

    <!-- Specifies the version of the compiled SWF -->
   <swf-version>18</swf-version>

You also need to download the the 11.5 playerglobal.swc from here:
 http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/updaters/11/playerglobal11_5.swc

And copy it to:
/frameworks/libs/player/11.5/playerglobal.swc

Hope that helps,
Justin
