Today my daily maven build was broken with wierd message:

[ERROR] Could not resolve <mx:AdvancedDataGrid> to a component implementation 

This happened after adding  <mx:AdvancedDataGrid> component to project mxml file. In Flex Builder all compiled fine, but build with maven failed. After spending some time with google, i’ve found the root of a problem.  The problem is that  this component isn’t included in Flex SDK, that was installed in my repository.  The files needed for successful compilation are ‘datavisualization.swc’ and ‘datavisualization_rb.swc’. So i took these files from Flex SDK version 3.2 and installed two artifacts to maven repository:

 mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.adobe.flex.sdk -DartifactId=datavisualization -Dversion=3.2.0.3958 -Dpackaging=swc -Dfile=datavisualization.swc
mvn install:install-file -DgroupId=com.adobe.flex.sdk -DartifactId=datavisualization_rb -Dversion=3.2.0.3958 -Dclassifier=en_US -Dpackaging=swc -Dfile=datavisualization_rb.swc

And added two dependencies to project pom.xml:

<dependency>
<groupId>com.adobe.flex.sdk</groupId>
<artifactId>datavisualization</artifactId>
<version>${flex.sdk.version}</version>
<type>swc</type>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>com.adobe.flex.sdk</groupId>
<artifactId>datavisualization_rb</artifactId>
<version>${flex.sdk.version}</version>
<type>swc</type>
<classifier>en_US</classifier>
</dependency>

That’s all, hope it will be helpful for somebody.
