Prepare the FDK resources using the flex-sdk-converter-maven-extension

The by far easiest way to get started, is definitely using the flex-maven-extension. In order to use this option, you need to copy the jar "flex-maven-extension-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar" into your maven installation in the directory "{maven-home}/lib/ext".

As soon as you see this you are good to go.

 Using the flex-sdk-converter-maven-extension behind a proxy

If you are trying to use the maven extension behind a prox, it will probably fail as it is not able to connect to the outside world. The flex-sdk-converter-maven-extension is therefore able to access the proxy settings in your settings.xml file. An example configuration would look like this:

<settings>
 
	...

	<proxies>
		<proxy>
			<id>mycorp-proxy</id>
			<active>true</active>
			<protocol>http</protocol>
			<host>proxy.mycorp.int</host>
			<port>8080</port>
			<username>myuser</username>
			<password>mytopsecretpassword</password>
			<!--nonProxyHosts>www.google.com|*.example.com</nonProxyHosts-->
		</proxy>
	</proxies>


	...
	
</settings>
