I am using VS Code with a patched version of asconfigc.[1]
My settings.json file looks like this:
{
"nextgenas.sdk.framework": "/FlexSDK/FlexJSNightly"
}
tasks.json looks like this:
{
// See https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=733558
// for the documentation about the tasks.json format
"version": "0.1.0",
"command": "/Users/harbs/Documents/github/BowlerHatLCC/asconfigc/asconfigc",
"isShellCommand": true,
"args": [
"--royaleHome=/FlexSDK/FlexJSNightly"
],
"showOutput": "always"
}
The extension gives an error that it can’t find a valid SDK and that prevents a
lot of the code hinting from working. I’m not sure why it’s not working. It
looks like something wrong inside the CheckFlexJSVersion.jar
I think it’ll make Josh’s job much easier once we release the first version of
Royale.
