Thanks everyone for giving me some feedback.
I'll try nochump again and see if I can hack it into place.

Cheers,

[flexcoders] Air bundle strips Mac executable permissions

2009-08-25 Thread christofink
I posted this message a few days ago and have not received any response, is 
this the right forum to post Air questions?


== Previous Post


There is a bug where an air app cannot maintain the permissions of executable
(r-x) files within the project.
If you put any executable file like a applescript.app or say a flash projector
within a project (in the src directory), when you create the air package (.air)
and install it the permissions of the .app file will be stripped.

I have put a test src directory here so you can replicate the problem in an air
project.
www.elevenxy.com.au/Air_Permissions_Bug.zip

I have noticed that if I zip up the .app file and unzip it, that the executable
properties are maintained, but if I try to unzip if with the nochump library
(http://nochump.com/blog/?p=15) it does not work, so I am stuck with any
workable solution to put an executable file (on a mac) into an air package.

Has anyone experienced this before? Thanks in advance for any assistance.
