Exclude classes from a compilation of a SWC project

2011-04-23T17:42:39Z

Add the feature to exclude classes from compilation. For example when adding a reference to a class with "include" keyword, the specified class after this keyword is generally not an actionscript class. Like "../styles/metadata/GapStyles.as".

Build Final Name

2009-05-27T07:54:53Z

Thanks to Dean for reporting us this issue.
The build/finalName parameter into the POM should allow the filename of the artifact into the target repository to be changed. Concerning installation / deployment of artifacts, the name should stay the same ($artifactId-$version-$classifier) to avoid problems while crawling repository.

Being able to compile multilang applications

2009-03-24T11:39:11Z

Because it is impossible to compile multilang application because:
- only one 'locale' can be set in the pom.xml configuration
- there is no 'source-path' compiler option available in the pom.xml (planned to 2.2.0 I suppose)

I ve implemented such a feature in a very easy-going way: you can have a look to the SVN patch (for 'flex-plugin' rev.223) I attached.

Add configuration key to use Flex Builder SDK

2009-02-04T10:30:38Z

In "Flex Build Path" window we can see useful button "Add Flex SDK". This button adds Flex Builder 3 internal SDK libs with sources. It will be very useful to add configuration key like "addBuilderSDK" in Maven Flex Builder configuration, which will do this.

In .actionScriptProperties file you should just write this string: <libraryPathEntry kind="112" path=""/>

And if we including Flex Builder SDK then we must have ability to exclude defined dependencies which could cross with Flex Builder SDK added libs. For example: framework.swc, rpc.swc... The second thing is to implement dependency excluding to create right eclipse libs configuration.

Add a stopBuildOnFlashPlayerFailure property

2009-01-14T11:02:44Z

This property could avoid the build to stop when Maven is executing unit tests on an environment with no Flash Player installed.

compilerSourcePathEntry

2008-12-20T21:03:45Z

flex:eclipse mojo should have a compilerSourcePath option for specify other src path on flex application

LinkRessource managment in .project

2008-12-20T20:56:04Z

Feature request:

flex:eclipse mojo should have linkedResources options for adding linkedResource to .project file.

<linkedResources>
<link>
<name>bin-debug</name>
<type>2</type> <location>D:/path/to/tomcat/webapps/myapplication/bin-debug</location>
</link>
</linkedResources>

Library manifest support

2007-09-12T20:16:50Z

Some SWC files consist of multiple components from different packages, so compc includes a manifest file with your SWC file in those cases to prevent compiler errors.

When compiling the SWC file, you specify the manifest file by using the namespace and the include-namespaces options. You define the namespace and its contents with the namespace option:

-namespace http://mynamespace mymanifest.xml

Then you identify that namespace's contents for inclusion in the SWC file:

-include-namespaces http://mynamespace

Implement services and contextRoot use

2007-07-23T16:13:55Z

The services and contextRoot are present in the Mojo but not used.

I patched my version of the plugin to be able to build application using Granite.

Made the following changes:

in AbstractFlexMakeMojo.getFlexCompilerCommandLineArguments

I add :

// -compiler.context-root
if (contextRoot!=null)
{
flexCompilerArguments.add( "-compiler.context-root" );
flexCompilerArguments.add( contextRoot);
}
// -services
if (services!=null && services.exists())
{
flexCompilerArguments.add( "-services" );
flexCompilerArguments.add( services.getAbsolutePath());
}

and modify contextRoot from :

protected URL contextRoot = null;

protected String contextRoot = null;

and it's working fine for me...

Maybe it can help for the next version.

Don't require installing flex sdk libraries repository

2007-05-11T01:18:29Z

It seems like overkill to require adding all the libraries from the Flex SDK into the Maven repository. Since the SDK needs to be installed anyway, can't the plugin just grab the libraries from there?
