AIR 3.4 ADT Bug - Unable to use [Embed] Tags

i'm attempting use ant compile , package ios ipa file using adobe sdk tools. need use ant, because build requires tonne of ram, , flash builder gets java heap space issues when compile (even though i've increased max ram in ini file).

this core of ant build looks like:

 

    <!-- build swf , save in publish directory -->
<target name="3. compile swf" depends="2. build new directories">
    <mxmlc
        file="${main_class}"
        output="${output_swf}"
        debug="${debug_flag}"
        failonerror="true">        
        <load-config filename="${mobi_config_file}"/>
        <define name="mobi_project::is_ios_build" value="${is_ios_build}" />
        <define name="mobi_project::debug" value="${debug_flag}" />
        <source-path path-element="${mobi_dir}/src"/>

        <library-path file="${flex_home}/frameworks/locale/en_us" append="true"/>
        <library-path dir="${mobi_lib_release_dir}" includes="*.swc" append="true"/>

        <compiler.library-path dir="${flex_home}/frameworks" append="true">
            <include name="libs/*" />
        </compiler.library-path>

        <compiler.external-library-path dir="${flex_home}/frameworks/libs/air">
            <include name="**/*.swc" />
        </compiler.external-library-path>
        <compiler.external-library-path dir="${flex_home}/frameworks/libs">
            <include name="**/*.swc" />
        </compiler.external-library-path>          
        <compiler.external-library-path dir="${flex_home}/frameworks/libs/mx">
            <include name="**/*.swc" />
        </compiler.external-library-path>
    </mxmlc>
</target>

<!-- package application ipa file & save in publish directory -->
<target name="4. package application" depends="3. compile swf">
    <java jar="${adt}" fork="true" failonerror="true">
        <arg value="-package"/>
        <arg value="-target"/>
        <arg value="ipa-test"/>

        <arg value="-provisioning-profile"/>
        <arg value="${ios_provisioning}"/>

        <arg value="-storetype"/>
        <arg value="pkcs12"/>

        <arg value="-keystore"/>
        <arg value="${ios_keystore}"/>

        <arg value="-storepass"/>
        <arg value="${ios_pass}"/>

        <arg value="${ipa_file}"/>
        <arg value="${app_descriptor}"/>
        <arg value="${output_swf}"/>
    </java>
</target>

i'm using flex 4.6 sdk air 3.4 beta sdk , using airmobile-config.xml sdk config file.

but when run following error:

4. package application:
[java] exception in thread "main" java.lang.error: unable find named traits: mx.core::soundasset

[java]     @ com.adobe.air.ipa.bitcodegenerator.main(bitcodegenerator.java:80)
[java] compilation failed while executing : adt

if remove [embed] tags of audio, error still there, complains 'mx.core::bytearrayasset'. if remove every single [embed] tag in project, compiles ok.

i've tried force soundasset class embedded putting line in code:

import mx.core.soundasset;
...
new soundasset();

 

i've gone flex sdk , copied out soundasset , bytearrayasset classes , put them in project, none of these things help.

i've tried linking ant build flex swcs this:

<compiler.library-path dir="${flex_home}/frameworks/libs/mx" append="true"><include name="mx.swc"/></compiler.library-path>

<compiler.library-path dir="${flex_home}/frameworks/libs" append="true"> <include name="core.swc"/> </compiler.library-path>

but doesn't work either.

can please tell me how compile ipa file via ant while still keeping [embed] tags?

i've fixed problem!

i think problem in way linking libraries. ended deleting hand made ant settings , instead exporting settings flash builder project, , using those.
