Looks like it is not possible to build a windows air installer
on Linux with SDK 3.4(with either SDK 1.5.2 or 1.5.3) although
this worked fine with Flex SDK 3.4(with included AIR SDK 1.5)
earlier.
Strangely when I now try to switch back to Flex SDK 3.3, I am
getting these errors,
App_mx_managers_SystemManager.as(75): col: 38 Error: Method marked override
must override another method.
[mxmlc]
[mxmlc] override public function get preloadedRSLs():Dictionary
[mxmlc] ^
[mxmlc]
[mxmlc] _App_mx_managers_SystemManager.as(87): col: 34 Error: Method marked
override must override another method.
[mxmlc]
[mxmlc] override public function allowDomain(... domains):void
[mxmlc] ^
[mxmlc]
[mxmlc] _App_mx_managers_SystemManager.as(105): col: 34 Error: Method
marked override must override another method.
[mxmlc]
[mxmlc] override public function allowInsecureDomain(...
domains):void
[mxmlc] ^
[mxmlc]
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
