I deployed flex-sdk-converter-extension 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT to Apache snapshots to allow testing of my bugfix. I updated the royale-compiler develop branch to use it, along with playerglobal 32.0 instead of 20.0 because Adobe no longer makes 20.0 available for download.
Similar to how it worked in the past, before flex-sdk-converter-extension 1.0 was released, you are now required to tell Maven to use settings-template.xml (but I think only the first time) to find this snapshot when building royale-compiler. mvn clean install -P option-with-swf -s settings-template.xml Using settings-template.xml is temporary. I plan to start the full release process for 1.1.0 as soon as others verify that it's working for them too. So please pull from the develop branch of royale-compiler and try to build using the command above. Thanks! I'll hold off on updating royale-asjs to use 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT and playerglobal 32.0 until Yishay creates the release branch in that repo, so that the release branches remain in sync. -- Josh Tynjala Bowler Hat LLC <https://bowlerhat.dev> On Tue, Jan 31, 2023 at 12:24 PM Josh Tynjala <joshtynj...@bowlerhat.dev> wrote: > I think I want to try publishing flex-sdk-converter-extension > 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT to Apache's Maven snapshots repo.
