Erik de Bruin updated FLEX-33843:
---------------------------------
Component/s: InstallApacheFlex
> Several enhancements to the installer
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: FLEX-33843
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-33843
> Project: Apache Flex
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: InstallApacheFlex, Installer
> Affects Versions: Install Apache Flex 2.6
> Environment: Windows XP SP3
> Reporter: Sword Dragon
> Priority: Minor
>
> On installing Apache Flex with the installer on Windows I have noticed some
> things that could be improved:
> 1. The installer installs itself which is unneeded. The installer should just
> install Apache Flex and the needed components. Just think of what would
> happen if every installer would install itself - a real bloatmare.
> 2. It would also be nice if there would be an offline installer for instaling
> on multiple machines or for later installs if internet access isn't possible.
> 3. The installer shows some components as needed like OSMF and
> playerglobal.swc but allows to unselect them. I think if the components are
> required there is no reason for the possibility to unselect them (just grey
> them out like the installer for the installer already does).
> 4. If the installer is downloading components it would be nice if he would
> show a more detailed progress like "17.2M/59.8M (852 K/s)".
> 5. It would also be nice if the installer would provide an option to
> automatically register the bin directory to the PATH variable.
