Hi,

I just installed the latest version of gradle, gradle fx and flex sdk on my CentOS server to continuously build my as3 project from the source. I am pretty sure that all the necessary tools and environment variables have been properly configured, However, every time I run gradle compile, the following error message is displayed in my console. Any idea what might be wrong? Thanks

This is my current configuration
java version "1.7.0_51"
gradle version 1.11
flex sdk version: 4.11
gradlefx version: '0.8.1'

gradle --stacktrace compile
:copyresources :compileFlex [ant:java] Java Result: 1 :compileFlex FAILED

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

• What went wrong: Execution failed for task ':compileFlex'.

   Hi,

   If your project is a pure as3 project (without needing the Flex framework), you'll have to specify the following:

   frameworkLinkage = 'none'
   

   This will make sure that, during compilation, it won't load any of the flex configuration files.

   Besides what Yennick said, I just verified that the Flex 4.11 SDK does not ship with playerglobal.swc version 11.1. So your configuration seems to be off.

   What's strange though is that it looks like that dependency comes from the default flex-config.xml. I verified that too and found that the playerglobal dependency is normally defined as libs/player/{targetPlayerMajorVersion}.{targetPlayerMinorVersion}/playerglobal.swc instead of the {playerglobalHome}/11.1/playerglobal.swc that read in your message. Did you tamper with it?

   I checked the GradleFx codebase for a reference to playerglobalHome and there is none. So it seems like this is something you configured.

   Thanks for your prompt response. What version of the flex sdk do you recommend?

   After adding frameworkLinkage = 'none' to my building file and compiling again I got the following error. (see below)

   I did not tamper the flex sdk configuration, I just downloaded the linux version of the sdk from the apache web site and unzipped on my CentOs box. Here is the link

   http://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi/flex/4.11.0/binaries/apache-fl...

   Maybe the linux version of the sdk has a different configuration by default.

   I resolved this issue by downloading and installing flex sdk version 4.6.

   I've found this in our message archives, maybe this can fix your issue with the 4.11 SDK: http://support.gradlefx.org/discussions/problems/115-playerglobalho...
