AIR SDK 3.7 include-sources repeatable are broken

hi.

 

i've tried upgrade sdk i'm using (3.3) latest version. upgrade resulted in failed builds. upon firther investigation turned out 1 class compiled swc, not all.

we use ant compile swc files this:

 

<compc output="${project.name}.swc">

                              <source-path path-element="${src.dir}" />

  <include-sources dir="${gamedata.dir}" includes="**/*.as" append="true" />

                              <include-sources dir="${src.dir}" includes="**/*.as" excludes="some/package/*.as" append="true" />

</compc>

 

internaly results in command this:

 

compc -output=xxx.swc -include-sources+=a/b/a.as -include-sources+=a/b/b.as -include-sources+=a/b/c.as

 

the resulting xxx.swc con-tains a.b.c class

 

some testing showd folowing syntax work correcty:

 

compc -output=xxx.swc -include-sources+=a/b/a.as,a/b/b.as,a/b/c.as

 

digging through bytecode, found probable cause of error.

 

in compile.jar, com.adobe.flash.compiler.config.configuration method setincludesources called every "-include-sources" instance on command line. method in turn calls filllistwithresolvedpaths, target.clear() on every call. explain why last passed value in command line actualy processed.

 

i tried sdk 3.5 (but did not bother others) assume bug introduced asc 2.0.

 

also see "include-stylesheet uses same internal method, should simillary affected.

 

i'd realy use new sdk, because of 1 specific feature (stack traces in release code, swf 18, http://www.adobe.com/devnet/articles/flashplayer-air-feature-list.html). switching old sdk new produced failed builds.

thank report.  i've talked compiler team , have confirmed bug.  mind opening public bug report on over @ bugbase.adobe.com , let me know bug number?  associate public bug our internal report can track progress.

 

thanks,

chris
