I understand what u mean. As im also from the Flash side. A lot of
things I want are based on what the Flash player can do, but Flex
limitates u in the use of the Flex player. Especially with creating and
dynamicly loading pre-compiled class libraries. It may not limit u but
there is (as far as I could find) little documentation on the real
possibilities and commandline switches of compc and mxmlc.

The solution u have seems kind of a way around if u just want to get an
swf compiled. Its good u found out an approach of doing it. I'll wait
till u share your script.

Thnx a lot for the effort.

I have an ant build file I'll be blogging this week (probably tomorrow).
It uses the compc.jar for the .sws to make the .swc, then extracts
library.swf from it and renames it accordingly.  Then it creates the
.swf from the .mxml files using mxmlc.jar.  Then it moves everything
from my local computer over to the dev. web server.

I *hate* the idea of Flex running on the server, and I think that's why
it took me so long to start using it.  In my opinion, there's no reason
a .swf needs to be compiled for every request, .swf is not server-side
technology, and Flash has always been client side

After using Flex this weekend though I realized how much faster I can
build applications with it now, and the components are much better than
those in Flash.  As a Flash dev, I feel kind of dissed.. but by not
having the server running at all, not even locally on localhost, I feel
a little bit redeemed.
