How to build datavisualization.swc from the source ?

Here are steps to build datavisualization.swc from the source that gets unzipped into a fbpro directory in FlexBuilder when a valid license is provided.

Setup

1. Download ant1.7.0.

2. Download a version of jdk 1.6.

3. Download cygwin, an open source unix shell for Windows.

4. Set environment variables. Go to Control Panels > System > Advanced > Environment Variables

• Set JAVA_HOME to the path to the jdk directory. Add path of ant1.7 to PATH. For example, C:\ant1.7.0\bin (you will already have a PATH, multiple entries are separated by semicolons)

• Add path of cygwin to PATH. For example, C:\cygwin\bin

Steps:

1. Add files build.properties and build.xml(attached) to location of datavisualization directory. For example, C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\sdks\3.2.0\fbpro\projects.

2. Add the flex builder license to build.xml file (location: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\sdks\3.2.0\fbpro\projects\build.xml) . Replace by license key.

3. Unzip inside_ datavisualization.zip. The build.xml and build.properties files should be copied inside datavisualization folder.For example, C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\sdks\3.2.0\fbpro\projects\datavisualization.

4. Make changes regarding location of sdk and output swcs to files build.properties and datavisualization\build.properties.

5. At the cygwin prompt, go to the datavisualization. For example C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\sdks\3.2.0\fbpro\projects\ datavisualization.

6. Run ant main to build datavisualisation.swc and datavisualization_rb.swc for en_US .

7. Run ant main_with_ja_JP to build datavisualisation.swc and datavisualization_rb.swc for en_US and ja_JP.

Note: Place the datavisualization.swc at sdk\frameworks\libs and datavisualization_rb.swc at sdk\frameworks\locale.
