We try our hardest to limit these dependencies, however for the current 4.9.0 release we do depend on the following components. Please review the [README][15] included in your download for more information on where to install these packages. - Open Source Media Framework (OSMF) [Download](http://sourceforge.net/projects/osmf.adobe/files/OSMF%201.0%20%28final%20source%2C%20ASDocs%2C%20PDF%20guides%2C%20and%20release%20notes%29/OSMF_1.0.zip/download) [MPL License](http://www.mozilla.org/MPL) *Optional Dependencies* The following dependencies are optional, and if available will provide additional features to the Flex Framework: - BlazeDS Support: - flex-messaging-common.jar [Download from older SDK](http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/flex/sdk/builds/flex4.6/flex_sdk_4.6.0.23201B.zip) [License](http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/adobe_flex_software_development_kit-combined-20110916_0930.pdf) - Embedded Font Support: - flex-fontkit.jar [Download from older SDK](http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/flex/sdk/builds/flex4.6/flex_sdk_4.6.0.23201B.zip) [License](http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/adobe_flex_software_development_kit-combined-20110916_0930.pdf) - afe.jar [Download from older SDK](http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/flex/sdk/builds/flex4.6/flex_sdk_4.6.0.23201B.zip) [License](http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/adobe_flex_software_development_kit-combined-20110916_0930.pdf) - adt.jar [Download from older SDK](http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/flex/sdk/builds/flex4.6/flex_sdk_4.6.0.23201B.zip) [License](http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/adobe_flex_software_development_kit-combined-20110916_0930.pdf) - rideau.jar [Download from older SDK](http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/flex/sdk/builds/flex4.6/flex_sdk_4.6.0.23201B.zip) [License](http://www.adobe.com/products/eulas/pdfs/adobe_flex_software_development_kit-combined-20110916_0930.pdf) All of the above dependencies can automatically be downloaded via the following ANT command : cd /frameworks ant thirdparty-downloads If you are planning on compiling the source code, you will need the following components. More details are available in the README file in the downloaded package. Some of these components have licenses that differ from the Apache License. - Java SDK 1.5 or 1.6 (compatibility with 1.7 will be in a future release) - ANT 1.7.0 or greater - Adobe AIR Integration Kit - Adobe Flash Player Content Debugger / Adobe Flash Player - Adobe Pixel Bender Toolkit #Verify the integrity of the files Apache relies on 3rd party mirrors to distribute their software. Because these releases are hosted on servers that are not under our control, we strongly recommend that you verify the integrity of the binaries or source code before you install it using the PGP or MD5 signatures listed next to the downloads. This involves a few extra steps, but it will verify that you are getting a true Apache release. The PGP signatures can be verified using PGP or GPG. First download the [KEYS][10] as well as the asc signature file for the relevant distribution. Make sure you get these files as linked from this page (rather than a mirror) to insure the integrity of the files. % pgpk -a KEYS % pgpv apache-flex-sdk-4.9.0-src.tar.gz.asc *or* % pgp -ka KEYS % pgp apache-flex-sdk-4.9.0-src.tar.gz.asc *or* % gpg --import KEYS % gpg --verify apache-flex-sdk-4.9.0-src.tar.gz.asc Alternatively, you can verify the MD5 signature on the files. A unix/Mac program called `md5` or `md5sum` is included in many unix distributions. It is also available as part of [GNU Textutils][11]. Windows users can get binary md5 programs from [here][12] , [here][13] , or [here][14]. An MD5 signature consists of 32 hex characters, and a SHA1 signature consists of 40 hex characters. Ensure your generated signature string matches the signature string published in the files above.
