as3 / as3-utils Goto Github PK

I was running and cleaning up some tests and I found that the tests for this function are not passing. Please check it out.

Have you guys considered how you are going to license this project? GPL 2 or 3? MIT? Apache?

Inquiring minds want to know.

I was wondering what peoples thoughts were about distributing a .swc with the library code, rather then the raw source?

I see that that is not available now, and was wondering if there was a specific reason for that.

Thanks!

I found an error in htmlEncode.as when i try to encode a string with several special characters.

I also found 2 solutions...

1. Switch line 8 and 9, the first one should be
2. Using this method
   return new XML(new XMLNode(XMLNodeType.TEXT_NODE, s)).toXMLString();
   to decode use this...
   return new XMLDocument(s).firstChild.nodeValue;

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to ask everyone what their thoughts are on the future of the library. I know AS3 isn't very popular these days so interest may be waning in the project. I suppose my plans for it would be to just keep it around and add to it if there are any new pieces to add. A more ambitious plan might be to try to port some of this to JS or Dart or another language. Anyway, please chime in if you have any thoughts on the subject.

Thanks,
Mims Wright

Hello.

I'm reading the guidelines, and starting out writing some tests for new util functions. However, i'm a bit at a loss as to how you all have this setup in FB (or whatever) wrt running the tests. Reading the supplied link (on FlexUnit4 usage) it has a "master" Suite class that runs all the tests. This isn't in the test/utils... folder.

Just wondering what your environments are setup like for working on this codebase, especially wrt testing.

Thanks

It looks like there are several methods in validation that are not implemented. While it's good to do test driven development, there shouldn't be any works in progress checked into the library's master branch. Please make changes in a separate branch or fork and use a pull request to add them to the master branch when they're tested and ready.

Also, I'm not sure why but the tests in this package were causing errors for me in FlexUnit. And isUSAStateAbbreviationTest() has a compile error.
