Status on the maven-flex-plugin
Hi guys. juts to give you a short update on what I'm currently working on. A working complete maven-flex-plugin needs code generation in place at several locations. Besides normal code generation when generating an ActionScript model from a Java Model, especially the Unit-Test support also needs quite a lot of generated code. At first I was intending on migrating the flexmojos generation, but flexmojos makes use of several different code-generators. It seems that there is currently not a single universal code generator maven-plugin available. So this is what I'm currently working on. As this plugin will be able to generate any sort of sources, resources, test-sources and test-resources from existing Java Sources, Java Classes, Property files and Maven models, I am working on this outside of Apache Flex and am intending on giving this to the Apache Maven guys as soon as I have a version that is actually worth reviewing. I just wanted to give you a short update and assure you that I am still working on things, even though I am currently not very active on the list (mainly because it has become impossible to follow the list in reasonable time because of 99,9% Git related postings ;-) ).

FalconJX: bugs in external dependencies (Google Closure Compiler), what to do?
I debugged the problem that I reported earlier (generating incorrect paths in deps.js) and looks like it is due to a bug in com.google.javascript.jscomp.deps.PathUtil.isAbsolute. It is implemented by simply checking that the path starts by a forward slash which of course is incorrect under Windows. So what is the procedure when the bug is in an external dependency? It is not as if it is a single call that can be avoided. PathUtil.isAbsolute is called a few levels below in the call stack from the com.google.javascript.jscomp.deps.DepsGenerator.computeDependencyCalls, which is supposed to compute and return the correct text for dependencies file. I will debug this further but just wanted to understand if I should I try to work around the external bug when I meet one or I need to try something else? Tigran. P.S. Did anyone actually try running FalconJX on Windows or everybody is developing on a Mac?
Re: How to compile and contribute Flex SDK in IntelliJ 12 with Git?
Sounds good. I'm still playing around with it. Mustella seems broken at the moment, but I think that has to do with the externals not coming through automatically. Otherwise, IDEA can do just about everything you've talked about in the WIKI, including the rebasing and the rest. I'm still diving into a bunch of topics I've only read about before and have never used, so I'm being super-conservative with my testing :) -Nick On Mon, Apr 8, 2013 at 6:08 AM, Frédéric THOMAS webdoubl...@hotmail.comwrote: Hi Nick, I'm working on a new tutorial...

Yep, the only exception with IDEA is if you are work on a symlink drive on Windows, Git is lost at time, an running IDEA as Administrator is worst in this case, it can't see any symlink drive, I should find the time to report a bug for that otherwise is a golden tool. -Fred -Message d'origine- From: Nicholas Kwiatkowski Sent: Monday, April 08, 2013 1:46 PM To: dev@flex.apache.org Subject: Re: How to compile and contribute Flex SDK in IntelliJ 12 with Git?

Re: [FalconJX] What is the purpose of emitBinaryOperator override in JSFlexJSEmitter?
It helps with the proper handling of getter/setter properties. FlexJS
uses methods with the get_ and set_ prefixes instead of the
Object.defineProperty that goog JS uses. When using a setter
method you go from myObject.label = 'hello world' to
myObject.set_label('hello world'). Part of that translation is a
manipulation of the assignment, where we want to leave out the right
side of the equation when dealing with an
AccessorDefinition.

RE: FalconJX: bugs in external dependencies (Google Closure Compiler), what to do?
Erik, I already tried manipulating the paths before they are fed to computeDependencyCalls, particularly I tried passing relative paths instead of absolute ones but that does not work either. One way or another the computeDependencyCalls() passes the path to PathUtil.makeAbsolute()and it gets corrupt. If you look at the source code you will see that the entire com.google.javascript.jscomp.deps.PathUtil class uses hardcoded forward slash / as path separator in multiple functions and they work incorrect under Windows. I will look further to find a solution.

RE: FalconJX: bugs in external dependencies (Google Closure Compiler), what to do?
Falconjs works on Windows. I haven't gotten far enough with falconjx to try on windows. Maybe I'll have time today. I do recall that deps file is a uri and not a path so forward slash is used even on windows. Sent via the PANTECH Discover, an ATT 4G LTE smartphone. Tigran Najaryan tig...@gmail.com wrote: Erik, I already tried manipulating the paths before they are fed to computeDependencyCalls, particularly I tried passing relative paths instead of absolute ones but that does not work either. One way or another the computeDependencyCalls() passes the path to PathUtil.makeAbsolute()and it gets corrupt. If you look at the source code you will see that the entire com.google.javascript.jscomp.deps.PathUtil class uses hardcoded forward slash / as path separator in multiple functions and they work incorrect under Windows. I will look further to find a solution.

I'll answer your other email some time tonight, jetlag permitting. On this one: might manipulation the path(s) before they are fed into the 'depswriter' - working from memory, might be missing the point - help avoid this low level problem?

It is implemented by simply checking that the path starts by a forward slash which of course is incorrect under Windows. So what is the procedure when the bug is in an external dependency? It is not as if it is a single call that can be avoided. PathUtil.isAbsolute is called a few levels below in the call stack from the com.google.javascript.jscomp.deps.DepsGenerator.computeDependencyCalls , which is supposed to compute and return the correct text for dependencies file.

Re: FalconJX compilation steps + FalconJX generates incorrect paths in deps.js (was: FalconJX mxmlc error)
I got the same error in the release version. I have a fix locally.

Tigran Najaryan tig...@gmail.com wrote:
Erik, Alex, you are right, I was using the source from the SVN mirror (was
under impression they are in sync with git).
Started anew and got everything from the git repos. This time the FalconJX
compiled successfully. I made notes of my build steps and attach my notes
below. You may want to use this to update the READMEs.
The FlexJSTest_again example compiled using FalconJX does not work out of
the box. The compilation went fine and finished with a message The project
'FlexJSTest_again' has been successfully compiled and optimized..
When trying to open js-debug /index.html in Firefox I get a bunch of
JavaScript errors, the first being SyntaxError: malformed Unicode character
escape sequence at deps.js line 4. The error message is indeed correct, the
backlashes in the path are not escaped and hence result in incorrect string,
e.g.:
goog.addDependency('../../../../D:\WORK\Projects\ApacheFlex\repo\falcon\comp
iler.jx\bin/D:\WORK\Projects\ApacheFlex\repo\asjs\examples\FlexJSTest_again\
bin\js-debug\org\apache\flex\net\HTTPHeader.js',
['org.apache.flex.net.HTTPHeader'], ['org.apache.flex.FlexObject']);
After fixing the backslashes and making sure the paths are correct (there is
one too many .. parent directory in the relative path) all worked. The
example loads in the browser and works.
When trying to open js-release/index.html I get a different JavaScript
error: TypeError: this.source is undefined at FlexJSTest_again.js line 4.
The file is minified so it is impossible to tell what is wrong with the
code.
If the problem with paths is not known and nobody works on it I will go
ahead and try to fix it then supply a patch.

== Begin FalconJX build steps
1. Create a working directory for Apache Flex (repo below).
2. cd repo
3. Get bleading-edge of SDK:
git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/flex-sdk.git sdk
cd sdk
git checkout develop
cd ..
4. Get TLF
git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/flex-tlf.git tlf
5. Get Falcon and switch to develop branch:
git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/flex-falcon.git falcon
cd falcon
git checkout develop
cd ..
6. Get ASJS
git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/flex-asjs.git asjs
cd asjs
git checkout develop
cd ..
7. Build SDK. Follow instructions in sdk/README, then:
cd sdk
ant main (Select all default answers when prompted, i.e. just hit ENTER
until the build finishes).
cd ..
8. Build Falcon compiler. Follow instructions in falcon/compiler/README,
then:
cd falcon/compiler
ant -Dsdk.branch=path-to-repo/sdk
cd ../..
(Note: the compiler/build.xml assumes Flex SDK is in ../flex-sdk dir, which
is not what we have created in step 3 above, so you need to supply correct
dir to Ant via sdk.branch parameter).
9. Build FalconJX.
cd falcon/compiler.jx
ant
cd ../..
10. Build ASJS and FlexJSUI.swc:
cd asjs
ant
cd frameworks/as
ant
=== End FalconJX build steps =

RE: [DISCUSS] How do we want to handle Whiteboard?
I don't think it would be possible to use github for the official whiteboards as it brings up a number of issues for infra and the ASF ie knowing who contributed, licensing issues etc etc basically the normal issues for bit of donated code. Ultimately I think github is the way to go. If that can't work, the other choice is for infra to create a repo per committer (github model).

[FalconJX][FlexJS] imports != require?
Erik, I haven’t found the code yet, but the FlexJS output seems to be using import statements as a way of setting up the goog.requires. The closure compiler subsequently doesn’t like wild card imports import foo.bar.*; And I think it will miss same-package class dependencies, unless that is being picked up somewhere else (and of course, will report unnecessary requires if you haven’t cleaned up your imports. FalconJS built up a list of dependencies as they were discovered by the compiler. This seems to be sufficient for the two test cases I’m working with. Any objections to switching away from imports to something more like how FalconJS does it? -- Alex Harui Flex SDK Team Adobe Systems, Inc. http://blogs.adobe.com/aharui

Re: [DISCUSS] How do we want to handle Whiteboard?
Hi, Think we may be missing the point here there's nothing to stop a committer from using github for their own experiments now, but if that code is eventually donated into the Flex project it would need to: 1) Any contributors who have a made a large contribution have signed a ICLA and agree to this code being donated. Just having an ICLA signed may not be enough as it may not been clear that the intent was to move the code to Apache Flex. So in git hub are all contributors easily identified and contactable? 2) Development should be in the open and all current committers notified of progress. At the very least discussion about the code need to take place on the development list (and not elsewhere ie in github) and all changes/diffs to the code need to mailed to commit mailing list.
