[LAST CALL] Apache Flex SDK Installer 3.3

[piotrz]

Hi Folks,

This is the official last call for any and all features, fixes and
other changes that need to be made to the installer to
get it ready to release.

The last successful build can be found here [1]. There is only one fix for
the installer [2]. You can test it by trying to download Nightly build of
Flex SDK with Adobe Air greater than 23 on Windows.

I will cut the release branch if there will be no objections. I will need
help also with putting the RC1 somewhere for the VOTE thread purpose.

Thanks,
Piotr

Sorry the link you provided was being unresponsive for me and I thought we also have a build on Apache’s  build servers but was unable to find it.

Thanks,

Hi,

I took a quick look and looks like there’s a couple of things that need to be fixed:
 - there are things bundled that perhaps should’t be i.e. ant_on_air/tests/temp
 - NOTICE has wrong year

I’m currently travelling and may not be able to look at it again for several days.

Thanks,
Justin

[piotrz]

Hi,

Both issue has been fixed. You can check sources [1].

Just subscribed to post that I found an issue using the Flex 3.2 installer on
a new Mac laptop with OS 10.13. I filed a Jira ticket[1]. Just like iOS, for
Mac 10.13 it seems like if your application makes HTTP calls, you need to
include in the Info.plist the NSAppTransportSecurity/NSAllowsArbitraryLoads
keys.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the help. The next step for me is to create RC, where I can
upload it ? Is there any instruction ?

Hi Piotr,

There are Ant scripts in each repo called releasecandidate.xml.  IMO, it
would be great if you tried them and helped get them to work for you, so
it becomes easier for other release managers to cut releases.  I've used
them for all releases I've managed recently.

There are also some instructions in the wiki

I tried using the instructions for building the installer with ANT and used
AIR 4.0. With that version of AIR, it fails on OS 10.13.

When I ended up building with AIR 27 it works on 10.13, which according to
the AIR 27 release notes[1] states "With AIR SDK 27, all AIR applications
built for macOS will automatically have the NSAllowsArbitraryLoads key set
as true in their info.plist file"

Do you think the README should be updated with that information?

Hi Christopher,

You have said in jira comments that if installer is being build with Air 27
everything should work fine. I have build new version of installer with AIR
25 and Flex 4.16. It worked perfectly fine on my Mac Sierra. I will try to
build version with signed keys and see what happen.

Thanks, Piotr

Ah, that's the problem. Sierra is 10.12, which I have on my desktop and the
installer worked fine with either version of AIR that I built with.

On my laptop, I'm running 10.13.1 which came out this September and is call
"High Sierra". Only the installer built with AIR 27 worked on the laptop
because of the App Transport Security setting in this version of macOS.
