Antennae 1.2.2 has been released. This is a very minor update that just changed the bundled version of FlexUnit. I'm now bundling the version from the Adobe Open Source Site. I've also created a discussion group for Antennae available at http://groups.google.com/group/antennae-discussion.
Antennae version 1.2.1 has been released. Grab it from http://code.google.com/p/antennae/. Highlights of this release include:
For anyone not familiar with Antennae here is a brief description:
Antennae is an open-source project designed to automate the building and testing of Flex applications. It uses Ant and Java to provide cross platform utilities to compile Flex libraries, Flex applications, generate FlexUnit TestSuites, and run FlexUnit tests in an automated manner. Antennae also defines a framework for building complex projects with multiple dependencies and intelligently handling recompilation.
Antennae version 1.2.0 has been released. Grab it from http://code.google.com/p/antennae/. Highlights of this release include:

I've added some more advanced FlexUnit cookbook recipes that cover testing visual components and automated TestSuite generation. These can be found at Testing Visual Components with FlexUnit and Automated TestSuite Generation respectively.
I'm pleased to announce Antennae release 1.0001 has now been posted. The full release notes are available online. Please leave me any feedback if you run into issues or have feature requests. Below is a summary of the key updates:
Flex based AIR application support
New targets and tasks have been added to support the building, running, and packaging of Flex based AIR applications.
A sample project has been put together that demonstrates the use of these new targets.
A key concept used in AIR application support is the concept of an "assets" directory. Since the AIR ADT application packager requires you to specify each file that should be bundled into the application, Antennae has instead chosen to specify a single directory. The goal being that by default all files under "assets" will be packaged with the application and there is no need to include these files in the source tree.
Simplified importing
All template applications have been updated to use the new single build-common-imports.xml file to pull in all standard Antennae build files.
Source code included
The source code for the ARC-FlexUnit pieces are now bundled with Antennae. This is for reference purposes. To rebuild the platform please grab the latest source code from the SVN repository for Antennae. http://antennae.googlecode.com/svn/
Linux fixes
Fixed bug about not being able to run automated unit tests on Linux.
Due to a scheduling conflict the time of my talk has been moved up a slot. The new details: Grand Ballroom, Salon E: Friday, September 21, 2007 1:30 PM-2:45 PM.
I'm pleased to announce the release of Antennae version 1.0000. This is the first release since Antennae was migrated from Joe Berkovitz's blog up to Google Code. You can access the project at http://code.google.com/p/antennae/. This release includes a bunch of tweaks and new functionality. For those that are not familiar with Antennae it covers:
This release is primarily aimed at getting the tools out there for public consumption. Future releases will focus on additional documentation and other ways Ant can help automate your Flex builds. Please let us know what other improvements you would like to see.
