blazeds

Last week I tried downloading blazeds to get it to work with flex, I compiled the source and followed the documentation to build it. However as usual the adobe documentation was not up to date: Here's what I had to do on mac (ox tiger).

• Could not load definitions from resource net/sf/antcontrib/antcontrib.properties. Solution download ant-contrib from sourceforge, and select ant-contrib from the package. Store the obtained jar in /Developer/Java/apache-ant-1.7.0/bin/lib. And do sudo ln -ns /Developer/Java/apache-ant-1.7.0/bin/ant /usr/bin/ant to make a symbolic link.


• Permgen error. Gave export ANT_OPTS="-XX:MaxPermSize=512m", which does the trick


• some of the files ant generates can not be removed, making ant main to fail. I had to "sudo ant main" to make it all work..
