3.1 API download

JeffPace — Wed, 08 Aug 2012 11:57:26 GMT

Is the 3.1 api available to download?

ON the download page I see

"The most recent release of the ArcGIS API for JavaScript is version 2.8"

Complete list

v3.1 API only
v3.1 SDK

Although when I tried the SDK link it didn't work, the path is wrong for a start (missing a slash after "resources2009") but even if you put it in manually it still doesn't work.

HTH

P.S. Doesn't look like the SDK download will be available for a while:

I will be returning to the office on Friday, August 10. I will have limited access to e-mail while away.

Jeff,

geos_rfleet posted the correct link to the downloads page. I see that there is still a reference to the old downloads page in the JavaScript resource center and we'll get that updated asap.

It does look like there is an issue with some of the downloads not working. We've notified the appropriate people and hope to have it back up soon.

Kelly,
thank you, i always go through the FAQ link.

Is there a way to get a email notification list going through ESRI? even a stickied API release announcement thread that we could subscribe to would be great.

SDK download now working 🙂

Did those links help you, Jeff?

I definitely agree with this, additionally perhaps RSS is an option? (and perhaps a tweet/post for those that follow on Twitter/Facebook etc.)

Kelly,
can you check the install doc? it still references a dojo.js.uncompressed.js file that no longer exists, and references the [HOSTNAME...] which also doesnt exist.

Do we need to do anything to localize the file?

Jeff,

Yes we've noticed the issues with the install doc and are working on updating the file and providing an updated download.

The JS API is already localized - you shouldn't need to do anything.

Also, in both init.js files for 3.1, there is serverapi.arcgisonline.com/jsapi/arcgis/3.1compact/js/dojo/dojo instead of expected [HOSTNAME_AND_PATH_TO_JSAPI]

The download zip files have been updated to resolve the install issues.

yes the default jsp and aspx pages were missing as well so i just copied them in from 3.0. Works great, really appreciate not having to localize anymore, saves alot of time and makes for a much quicker deployment!
