OK. I'm using a modified version of the dependency:copy-dependencies maven plugin that I have made that takes out the requirement that the scope is one of maven default ones, so I can copy externals, rsls etc.
However, as the dependency is configured as swc in the pom.xml, the plugin copies the swc, not the swf. I'm not willing to modify this plugin much more because I won't be able to commit it in the maven repository. I searched for a tool that did that within flexmojos and couldn't find one either, so I'm thinking about making my own plugin. Before I start, though, does such a tool exists? And if it does not, is anyone else interested in a tool like this? Since I'm making it anyway, I might as well make it as a goal in flexmojos. Thanks, Rafael.
