Incorrect Built-Date in MANIFEST.MF of FlashRuntimeExtensions.jar

[Policy56]

Description:

The MANIFEST.MF file of FlashRuntimeExtensions.jar in the Adobe AIR SDK is misconfigured. The Built-Date field incorrectly displays ${TODAY} instead of the actual build date.

Here is the current content of the MANIFEST.MF file:

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Ant-Version: Apache Ant 1.10.13
Created-By: 17.0.10+11-LTS-240 (Oracle Corporation)
Built-Date: ${TODAY}

This placeholder seems to indicate that the build script did not properly resolve the date variable at the time of the build.

Expected Behavior:

The Built-Date field should contain the actual build date in a proper format, for example:

Built-Date: 2024-12-30

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Download the Adobe AIR SDK.
2. Inspect the MANIFEST.MF file in FlashRuntimeExtensions.jar.
3. Observe the incorrect ${TODAY} placeholder in the Built-Date field.

Impact:
This issue can lead to confusion when debugging or tracking builds, as the date information is critical for build versioning and reproducibility.

Suggested Fix:
Update the build scripts to correctly resolve and substitute the Built-Date variable with the actual date at the time of the build.
