We are starting to add our flash projects to SVN but by large every
project has all of the AS code inside the actual movie leaving us with
just fla's in the repo
We are working on getting everyone to develop with .as files they
include in the fla, but is there a limit as to how far that should go?
When you have all of the includes gone and all of the code out of the
fla's you will be ready to start developing new functionality.
Should there be any code in the flas besides the #includes?
No. No includes either. You probably do not need any fla files either
once you get off the timeline unless you are doing animations but they
will not be hard to build or manage once they have no connection to script.
How do you go about organizing your folders when you are making an
AS1/AS2 project?
Into packages.
Under the src directory build a tree
com.
smitty.
yourapplication
model
view
controller
util
Do you mimic the folders in the fla with the appropriate as file locations?
Nothing in the fla's except animations. Draw everything else on a stage.
If you want a button, create one in ActionScript and put it on the stage
or use Flex or ActionStep or some other view technology
I'd like to make it easier for everyone to use SVN while still getting
the benefit of having plain text code in the repo
You are on the right track. Get your code into Eclipse, get the
ActionScript plug-in and program with the pros. Save your Flash licenses
for the animators.
Thanks for any guidance
