i looked at ant in chat gpt with apache royale i will try that and keep digging. I dont think moonsnhine works on linux.
I am posting a video of my docker work to date and I want to start coding in apache royale very soon with no more complicated installs in docker. Here is what the chatgpt AI said about apache ant with royale... Step 1: Set Up Your Environment - Install Apache Royale: Make sure you have Apache Royale installed. You can follow the [installation guide](https://royale.apache.org/docs/installation/) on the official site. - Install Apache Ant: Download and install Apache Ant from the [official site](https://ant.apache.org/). Step 2: Create a Sample Royale Project - Create Project Structure: arduino Copy code my-royale-project/ ├── src/ │ └── MyApplication.mxml ├── build.xml └── royale-config.xml - Create MyApplication.mxml: xml Copy code <?xml version= "1.0" encoding= "utf-8" ?> < s:Application xmlns:fx = "http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009" xmlns:s = "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark" > < s:Label text = "Hello, Apache Royale!" /> </ s:Application > - Create royale-config.xml: xml Copy code < royale-config > < output > < output-path > bin </ output-path > < swf-output-name > MyApplication.swf </ swf-output-name > </ output > </ royale-config > Step 3: Create the build.xml File Here’s a basic example of a build.xml for your Apache Royale project: xml Copy code < project name = "MyRoyaleProject" default = "build" basedir = "." > < property name = "royale.home" location = "/path/to/royale-sdk" /> < property name = "src.dir" location = "src" /> < property name = "build.dir" location = "bin" /> < target name = "clean" > < delete dir = "${build.dir}" /> </ target > < target name = "compile" > < mkdir dir = "${build.dir}" /> < royale:compile src = "${src.dir}" output = "${build.dir}" royale.home = "${royale.home}" /> </ target > < target name = "build" depends = "clean, compile" > < echo message = "Build completed successfully." /> </ target > </ project > Step 4: Build the Project - Open a terminal and navigate to your project directory: sh Copy code cd path/to/my-royale-project - Run the Ant build: sh Copy code ant Step 5: Check the Output After running the build, check the bin directory for the MyApplication.swf file. You can then test it using a Flash Player or embed it in an HTML page. Sent with [Proton Mail](https://proton.me/mail/home) secure email.
