OK, I should clarify a few things:
o I want to build as quick as possible (machine is not that fast; when
I'm not doing a release or QA build).
o I want to use a JRE, not a full JDK (I shouldn't have to compile Java
just to build Royale .swc libs, if I already have a Royale compiler build).
o I want to build completely from what I downloaded (not have git pull
in the middle of the build; use the exact version I downloaded).
So... I don't do this, but yes, this does work, as you mentioned:
set
MY_ROYALE_DIST=C:\src\just-for-harbs\apache-royale-nightly-build-beta-0.9.8-bin-js-swf
set ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO=%MY_ROYALE_DIST%\royale-compiler
set AIR_HOME=c:\adobe-air-sdk
set ANT_HOME=c:\apache-ant-1.10.1
set ROYALE_HOME=%MY_ROYALE_DIST%\royale-asjs
set JAVA_HOME=c:\jdk\jdk8u252-b09
set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%;%ANT_HOME%\bin
cd %ROYALE_HOME%
ant -Dskip-tests=1 all
And this works (and creates all sorts of directories outside of the
MY_ROYALE_WORK directory):
set
MY_ROYALE_DIST=C:\src\just-for-harbs\apache-royale-nightly-build-beta-0.9.8-bin-js-swf
set MY_ROYALE_WORK=C:\src\just-for-harbs\royale-asjs-release-0.9.8
set ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO=%MY_ROYALE_DIST%\royale-compiler
set AIR_HOME=c:\adobe-air-sdk
set ANT_HOME=c:\apache-ant-1.10.1
set ROYALE_HOME=%MY_ROYALE_WORK%
set JAVA_HOME=c:\jdk\jdk8u252-b09
set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%;%ANT_HOME%\bin
cd %MY_ROYALE_WORK%
ant -Dskip-tests=1 all
But I'm doing this (to avoid the "all" target):
set
MY_ROYALE_DIST=C:\src\just-for-harbs\apache-royale-nightly-build-beta-0.9.8-bin-js-swf
set MY_ROYALE_WORK=C:\src\just-for-harbs\royale-asjs-release-0.9.8
set ROYALE_COMPILER_HOME=%MY_ROYALE_DIST%\royale-asjs\js
set ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO=%MY_ROYALE_DIST%\royale-compiler
set ROYALE_TYPEDEFS_HOME=%MY_ROYALE_DIST%\royale-asjs
set AIR_HOME=c:\adobe-air-sdk
set ANT_HOME=c:\apache-ant-1.10.1
set JRE_HOME=c:\jre\jdk8u222-b10-jre
set PATH=%JRE_HOME%\bin;%PATH%;%ANT_HOME%\bin
:: copy needed bits around
md %ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO%\compiler\lib
%ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO%\compiler-jx\lib %ROYALE_TYPEDEFS_HOME%\js\target
copy %ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO%\..\royale-asjs\lib\compiler-mxmlc.jar
%ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO%\compiler\lib
copy %ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO%\..\royale-asjs\lib\compiler-compc.jar
%ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO%\compiler\lib
copy %ROYALE_COMPILER_REPO%\..\royale-asjs\js\libs\js.swc
%ROYALE_TYPEDEFS_HOME%\js\target
:: quick hack
(comment out CreateJS and jQueryJS dependencies in
%MY_ROYALE_WORK%\frameworks\build.xml)
:: run minimal build
cd %MY_ROYALE_WORK%
ant -Dskip-tests=1
(I normally go to the frameworks/projects/x subdirectory and just build
the specific swc, after the first full build.)
And that generates this error (because it's not reading the environment
variable ROYALE_COMPILER_HOME), unless I modify the build.xml files, as
I previously mentioned:
c:\src\just-for-harbs\royale-asjs-release-0.9.8\frameworks\projects\Language\build.xml:142:
ROYALE_COMPILER_HOME must be set to a folder with a lib sub-folder
containing jsc.jar such as the compiler-jx folder in royale-compiler
repo or the js folder of a Royale SDK
But regardless of what I'm doing... it feels like the build.xml files
should honor the environment variable ROYALE_COMPILER_HOME over the
internally-generated version. Maybe I'm alone in thinking that.
BTW, why are both SWF and JS targets being built for both x.swc and
xJS.swc? Seems like double the compile time (both x and xJS get built
at the same time, anyway).
