Question

Compilation failed while executing: ADT

I have a project that I've been successfully compiling for iOS in Flash Professional 5.5, with uses AIR 2.6. I decided to try compiling in Flash Builder 4.6 using AIR 3.1. It runs fine on the desktop, no errors or warnings. When I try to do an Ad Hoc release build, it fails with java.lang.NullPointerException at java.util.TreeMap.getEntry(TreeMap.java:324), (The Export Release Build dialog does not let me select the text, otherwise I'd paste the stack here)starting at com.adobe.air.ipa.BitcodeGenerator.main(BitcodeGenerator.java:82) and saying  "Compilation failed while executing: ADT"

Any suggestions would be appreciated!

Regards,

John

I don't think so. This problem only exists on iOS and isn't a problem when you compile to Android...

Hi John,

Could you please try packaging it on command line using ADT (available @ C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.x\sdks\4.x\bin)

# adt -package -target ipa-ad-hoc -provisioning-profile <path to mobileprovision> -storetype pkcs12 -keystore <path to p12> -storepass <password> hellworld.ipa hellworld-app.xml hellworld.swf

Is it specific to ipa-ad-hoc target only? Could you try it with other targets like ipa-app-store or ipa-test-interpreter

Please share the adt version by executing following command.

# adt -version

-Thanks

Pahup

I'm not John, but I have the exact same issue, same traceback. I'm compiling on the commandline with adt version 3.1.0.4880, but it also happens with sdk versions 3.2 and 3.3. If I compile the SWF using -debug, the problem doesn't occur - only with the release build. It also occurs with the ipa-app-store target, but not with ipa-test-interpreter (not too surprising, given the error traceback).

I am having the same exact problem right now, and as far as I can tell, this post is the only example of it on the internet, and it has no replies.. Did you ever figure out what was happening?
