Apache FalconJx Prototype Cross Compiler 
==================== 

Note: steps 1-4 and 7 below describe how to get and build Apache Flex SDK, develop branch. If you already have the the develop branch of SDK skip these steps. 

To get and build FalconJX compiler follow these 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

11. create a 'temp' folder in 'compiler.jx'?
