setup-haxe

This action sets up a Haxe environment for use in your workflows.

Supported combinations

Runner OS / Arch	haxe-version
ubuntu-latest (x64)	stable (e.g. 4.3.7, 3.4.7) / latest (nightly)
macos-latest (Intel / Apple Silicon)	stable / latest
windows-latest (x64)	stable / latest
ubuntu-24.04-arm (Linux ARM64)	latest (nightly) only

Notes:

• Linux ARM64 only works with haxe-version: latest. HaxeFoundation does not publish stable Haxe ARM64 archives, and Neko 2.3.x (used by Haxe 3.x / 4.0–4.2) has no ARM64 binary. Stable Haxe / Neko 2.3 on Linux ARM64 will fail with an explicit error.
• Windows ARM64 is not supported (no upstream Haxe / Neko archives).
