             Summary: Flex-Falcon
                 Key: FLEX-33634
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33634
             Project: Apache Flex
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: Performance: Compiler
    Affects Versions: Apache Flex 4.11.0
         Environment: The Desktop and the Tablet.
            Reporter: J. Terry Corbet


If this is not the right place for this request, please tell me where to make 
it.

Alex says that the Falcon Compiler is successfully handling some large test 
case he has.  The notes on the Git page say that it is 'almost production 
worthy'.

The notes I find show that Erik expressly turned off the testing of the 
compiler so that Jenkins would be clean.

OK, you got 4.10 out the door, great job.  Now since it is a top priority, 
please

A.  Turn on the nightly Falcon testing.
B.  Provide us with a nightly binary so we can help Alex test against our 
requirements.

I know that you are personally very excited about being able to get out from 
under Flex/Flash or any dependency except what a browser will provide, but we 
who have stayed with Flex for all these years are committed to making our 
applications the best possible with the Adobe Integrated Runtime.  Every time 
you successfully compile for the JS environment, please give us the same 
capability to compile for the devices on which we run.  If you move one step 
forward on being able to generate JavaScript, please gives us one step forward 
on being able to compile ActionScript.

I think any Flex 4.11 Release Candidate that does not successfully compile our 
applications with the new compiler should be voted down by all who own that 
privilege.  Move to JavaScript as fast as the wind will blow you there, but 
please stop leaving us behind.
