Using Flex SDK 4.5.0.19786 With Maven

The latest release of Flex SDK 4.5 (Hero 4.5.0.19786) is now available on the flash nexus maven repository.

This release was deployed following the instructions in “Installing Flex SDK’s to Maven Repositories”.

This release is currently not available from the Sonatype repository, and not supported by them. All support requests and discussions should be directed to the Google group http://groups.google.com/group/flex-sdk-maven-install where everybody is welcome.

You can use this maven repository by adding the following xml into either you .m2/settings.xml file or putting in directly in your pom of choice.

				      
<repository>
  <id>flash-nexus-repository</id>
  <url>http://www.flashnexus.org/nexus/content/groups/public</url>
</repository>

Then you will be able to use the latest Flex SDK 4.5 Beta by adding the following dependency to your project pom.

<dependencies>
 <dependency>
  <groupId>com.adobe.flex.framework</groupId>
   <artifactId>flex-framework</artifactId>
   <version>4.5.0.19786</version>
   <type>pom</type>
  </dependency>
 </dependencies>

You can then use Flexmojos as normal for your builds.

Please let me know how you get on, and please suggest other libraries to be added to the repository.

I have created a Git repository for the files used to perform this deployment and you can find them on github

Appreciate your maven articles.

Maven to me is like my missus : Gorgeous, but can be a right bitch at times*

Any mojos stuff is helpful – appreciate the detailed articles.

* – I’m sure she could say the same about me too, except for the gorgeous part

Nice little article..
quick question

“This release was deployed following the instructions in “Installing Flex SDK’s to Maven Repositories”.” — has this been removed.

Hi Brndn

I have not removed that SDK – why do you ask?

I think @brndn refered to link that you provided. It is a dead link. Can you relocate it?

Thanks.

I’m talking about the “Installing Flex SDK’s to Maven Repositories” link.

Hi,

Thanks a lot for this article and the Github repository sharing. I’ve tested with some modifications in order to install more recent version of the Flex SDK and it works like a charm !!

Best regards,

Amine
