I looked around for a JQueryUI externs file. From what I understand, JQueryUI does not add any more external variables that should not be renamed (during GCC minification), hence there is no need for a separate externs file for JQueryUI. But, I guess that is bad for us because we are using the externs file as a way to create a public API in ActionScript. Any ideas how to tackle this issue? For what its worth, there is a complete TypeScript defintions file for JQueryUI: https://github.com/borisyankov/DefinitelyTyped/blob/master/jqueryui/jqueryui.d.ts Any chance we can use this to generate the AS3 swc file for JQueryUI? Thanks, Om
