Hi Mike,

Glad that you sorted out the confusion about FlexUnit and its versions ... =
this really had me worried a little now and then :-)

Seems you are having the same problem I was having with Flexmojos. Velo as =
the main contributor also seems to have left the Flex road and I was willin=
g to keep it alive. So I joined that project and took over its development.=
=20

What exactly do you need help with? My current solution was to upload 4.1.0=
-flex to my companies repo and to make Flexmojos work with that (Had to do =
a little refactoring of FM to support parameterized tests, but got it worki=
ng nicely). Currently the only problem I am having is that I can't push my =
FM changes back to the main trunk because the dependency to flexunit-4.1.0-=
flex is hosted nowhere. Would it be possible to simply upload the artifact =
somewhere publically? Or would there be any problems with this (It seems th=
e 4.0-RC2 was uploaded by Velo into the Sonatype Maven Repo). I didn't want=
 to do this on my own as it's not my software. If you could do that however=
 it would be great and I would be pleased to push my stuff back to trunk.

Chris

Betreff: RE: [OT] Current status on Flexunit4?

>My second area of uncertainty regarding flexunit (from flexunit.org) is wh=
at the latest version is. The Blog on the page claims to be 4.1 RC2, but th=
e download page states 4.1 ("stable" without the RC2).=20

ublic repo.

FlexUnit 4.x is the successor to the FlexUnit .85 version you discussed.
FlexUnit 4.1 is the current release (http://www.flexunit.org/?page_id=3D14)=
 it is slightly different than the RCs before it.
FlexUnit 4.2 is the version that will be contributed to Apache

Part of the confusion comes from the fact that only the older (RC) versions=
 were submitted to a public repo. A number of people have contributed infra=
structure fixes to the project to make it easier to push it to a repo, howe=
ver, none of them are complete. Part of the issue is that FlexUnit really h=
as two flavors. There is an AS only version and a version with Flex depende=
ncies. This is an unfortunate side effect of trying to marry to Flex, which=
 is light on interfaces and heavy on implementations.

At the time that development last stopped, the project was being refactored=
 to handle this differently and hence make it all a little more maven frien=
dly (slated to be version 4.2). That is the version which will be contribut=
ed to ASF.

Yennick did some excellent work getting us 99.5% to submitting automaticall=
y to a Maven repo (https://github.com/SlevinBE/flexunit/commit/d9dc78955ed3=
1e7ed11d390c2c38fb639b2227bc) so, to that end, I am happy to have any help =
getting things finalized and actually brought over. The reality of the situ=
ation is that everyone actively working on FlexUnit has left the Flex commu=
nity. This means that any work on FlexUnit presently is being done solely b=
y me and between a million other things. That means its slow going so happy=
 to have anyone who wants to help, contribute.

Mike
