ASDocr Update for AIR 2 Beta 2

Posted on February 10, 2010 by Grant Skinner

ASDocr 1.1 is available. This update provides compatibility with AIR 2 beta 2, fixes a bug that prevented multiple exclude-namespaces values from working, fixes a problem with locating the default output directory on OSX, and correctly opens the last used configuration when you restart the application.

ASDocr provides a GUI for working with ASDoc to make generating documentation for AS3 classes easy. For more information on ASDocr, read the original post on it.

To install version 1.1:

1. Uninstall ASDocr version 1.0

2. Upgrade to the AIR 2 beta 2 runtime. It can be found here.

3. Download and install ASDocr 1.1

Known issues:

There is a bug in AIR 2 beta 2 that can cause the Open HTML and Open Output Folder actions to take a long time (~30s) on some Windows XP machines.

Download:

Download for Mac OSX

Download for Windows


UPDATE: The latest version of ASDocr, with support for the AIR 2 Release Candidate can be downloaded here.

The mac installer seems to be corrupted.

Hi, Grant i was wondering how did u solve the "exec()" method?

Using the new method File.openWithDefaultApplication()?

Hi Grant, nice tool !

Just one thing, for packages documentation.

I, and perhaps some developers too, use an xml file to describe packages documentation. (use with -package-description-file asdoc parameter)

So I think a "browse for XML package definition" file, in last option panel, can be a good idea no ?

Cheers,

Romain

This looks great, cool! I'm having a slight issue generating documentation for my project. You see, how does this process go if in my project, my classes use a non-native Flash library (like, say, PaperVision)? I'm getting an error where ASDOC's saying it that this or that constant isn't known by him. Does ASDOC use flex-config.xml to look up libraries or do I need to explicitly refer to them in every ASDOC interaction I do?

Well I finally fixed it. Turns out you need to let go of what the GUI frontend to ASDOC helps you with and go command-line all the way. Maybe you could add recursive addition of -doc-classes to ASDOCr? That would really rock!

Bro, it's simple--if we ever meet in person, the beers are on me. Thanks for this, and many other things you've done.

I get a flex error:

C:\flex_sdk_4.1\bin\asdoc -source-path "C:\My Dropbox\workspace.racUILib\lib3min\src" -output "C:\My Dropbox\workspace.racUILib\lib3min\doc" -doc-sources "C:\My Dropbox\workspace.racUILib\lib3min\src" -main-title "www.RealAPI.com" -window-title "www.RealAPI.com" -footer "www.RealAPI.com" -external-library-path "C:\My Dropbox\workspace.racUILib\lib3min\lib" -lenient

Loading configuration file C:\flex_sdk_4.1\frameworks\flex-config.xml

[Fatal Error] toplevel.xml:10514:12: Element type "inheritDoc" must be followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>".

Error: Could not create toplevel.xml: Element type "inheritDoc" must be followed by either attribute specifications, ">" or "/>

What is that? I am using pure as, but some of the libs I use some mxml

I encountered the same problem

This is great stuff! Everything working fine except it cannot find definitions for ImageCell and CellRenderer both of which are in fl.controls.listClasses and I just cannot work out why?? Do I have to manually add the fl package somehow?

Posted by: Steve on Apr 28, 2010 1:24pm URL: http://http:stevemann.net

Looked into this some more and yes, you do indeed need to find or create a swc containing the fl classes and add it to the library-path on the first page of ASDocr. Then all comes good.

For anyone used to struggling with ASDoc command-line stuff - this app will transform your life!! Thanks again Grant.

Cannot install on Windows XP SP3. I'm able to install the beta2 of the AIR runtime, but I get this error when trying to install asdocr

"This application requires an update to Adobe AIR that is not available for your system."
