Ok ... so I found out what the first two commands are:
get "this" and make it the scope ... makes sense to have this in every
non-static function, but why is this missing in falcon?

Betreff: AW: AW: AW: [FALCON] Bindable interfaces?
Every function call in the default compiler results in these two lines of code:
0 getlocal0
1 pushscope
these are missing in Falcon compiled code.
Another change I found was that in Falcon compiled code the Metadata is kept at
class level while the default compiler moves the metadata to the property. Ist
this of any significance? I could immagine that if I have a class extending a
falcon compiled class then all properties in this extension would be bindable
too, if extending a default compiler compiled class I would only expect the
properties of the base class bindable. But that's just wild guessing ...
reading ABC code is something I'm not really familiar with.
When compiling this:
package {
[Bindable]
public interface TestInterface {
function someFunct():void;
}
}
And this implementation class:
package {
[Bindable]
public class TestClass implements TestInterface {
public var tst:String;
public function TestClass() {
}
public function someFunct():void {
}
}
}
The default compiler outputs this:
public class TestClass extends Object
TestInterface,flash.events::IEventDispatcher
{
// method_id=2309
public function TestClass():*
{
// derivedName null
// method_info 2309

Betreff: AW: AW: AW: [FALCON] Bindable interfaces?
Last night I found out that I could simply let the falcon SWFdump dump the swf
of the default compiler any I actually got results I could compare.
One thing that sprung my eyes immediately was that with the old compiler the
first two commands of every method I could find were identical and were
completely missing from the falcon code.
But ignoring the first two statements (even a one-line return null function had
these). The results were semantically allmost identical. Only the setter of a
Bindable variable were slightly differntly implemented and the private variable
didn't have the number prefix ... don't know if this could be a problem:
private var tst:String;
public function set tst(val:String):void {
...
}
pubic function get tst():String {
...
}
Could this cause problems?

I think you can set -compiler.compress=false and get Falcon to produce a SWF
that the old swfdump can dump.
