Re: [FlexJS] ASDoc: Any reason for additional config options?

[piotrz]

It's about half past 8 AM and I'm in a Zombie Mode, so doing weird and
unpredictable things! I hope my code will be ok at half past 1 PM when other
guys from my Team will start doing Code Inspections. :D

Thanks Chris!

Looking forward to the results. :)

Hi Piotr,

Yes it will be static html content as we know it from all other API docs for 
all other languages I have come across. It’s packaged as self-sufficient 
„{artifactid}-version-javadoc.jar“ 
files together with the artifact and the artifacts sources in typical Maven 
style. 

And how on earth did you manage to respond to my email before me writing it? ;-)

Hi Chris,

What will be the results of your work ? I mean I will get documentation from
source code AS and Java and I will see this documentation as code hint ? It
will be an html output ?

[FlexJS] ASDoc: Any reason for additional config options?

[Christofer Dutz]

Hi,

I’m currently workin on Maven support of the ASDoc output. Now I’m sort of 
wondering, why we need these „doc-namespaces“ and „doc-sources“ config options? 
Shouldn’t the normal sources and namespaces be enough?

Being Wednesday afternoon here I’ve run out of time to be able to create, test, 
release and finish a vote on the next RC and will have to wait until after I 
get back from being away.

Thanks,
Justin

Apache projects aren't supposed to make forks without permission.  Getting
permission is a whole process.  For me, it was easier to put a copy in the
Adobe Flex SourceForge repo and get it from there.  That way Adobe is
still the distributor.

Our ExternC tool is capable of converting the Google Externs pattern of JS
to AS.  It cannot currently handle a full JS implementation, but probably
could with a chunk of work.  But even that would only be for what I would
call prototype-based JS patterns with Google-style JSDoc.

Plenty of libraries are written with other patterns like functions that
generate the classes and use different annotations for type information.
CreateJS and Jquery for example, can't currently be parsed by ExternC.
Doing so would be a significant amount of work, IMO.  But volunteers are
welcome to try.

I believe anyone could now write a JS library in AS and cross-compile it.
I'm sure there are still transpilar bugs that need fixing though.  But
folks may not like the output format we currently support so new emitters
would need to be written.  And some folks simply like doing
non-object-oriented, non-sealed-class tricks that JS allows that AS
wouldn't in order to get performance or size.

Evangelizing our transpilar is welcome.  Keep in mind that Javascript is
not really a 1995 thing any more.  The ES5 and ES6 flavors are slowly
pushing it into a more structured feel, not unlike AS2 to AS3.

Re: Converting JavaScript libraries to AS3

[Christofer Dutz]

Hi,

I think this is what our „externs“ do ... you sort of generate a no-op AS 
counterpart which the IDE is able to use for content assist, but the FlexJS 
then directly calls the JS library.
But I bet the others will be able to give you more detailled infos on this.

There's a few large libraries out there that are written in JavaScript.
I've been working with them and am disappointed it's not AS3 for obvious
reasons. Since the community has been working on cross compiling AS3 to JS
is there any work on taking a JavaScript library and parsing it into a AS3
class? I'm not talking about creating a swc that you drop in and then you
have code completion in Flash Builder (I think this is externs?). I'm
talking about taking a github library or source and parsing it into AS3
classes.

Even if we may eventually cross compile that AS3 library back to JS I'd
rather import the JS library, and then work with that AS3 version of it.

Also, we as a community are catering to the JS community by converting AS3
down to JS. Can we rather convince developers to write their libraries in
AS3 from now? I mean is that already possible (it's early morning here hope
this makes sense)? I know we are working on frameworks like FlexJS but I'm
talking about addressing the thousands of libraries written in JS. My
thought on that is, along with everything else we're doing and all the
progress we've made over the years, if it's already possible to convert AS3
to JS would making Flash Builder free draw JS developers to use AS3 for
their libraries going forward?

As we have been having problems like this quite regularly ... what would 
prevent us from forking osmf and adding that to our flex extras git repo and 
publishing osmf to maven-central.
Shouldn’t that resolve this type of problem once and for all?

Hi,

The same download is also failing on OSX currently so it not just a windows 
issue.

However it's not failing consistently on my 3rd try it worked.

Using curl -v I notice it's doing a 302 redirect to:

https://pilotfiber.dl.sourceforge.net/project/osmf.adobe/OSMF%202.0%20Release%20%28final%20source%2C%20ASDocs%2C%20pdf%20guides%20and%20release%20notes%29/OSMF.swc

Perhaps using that URL would give more consistent results?
