Re: Should the compiler also fix up the HTML wrapper?

[Erik de Bruin]

I agree that building everything in one command should be the goal. I
do not think that HTML should be part of the compiler. Isn't there a
way to wrap both the compile step and the HTML generation into one
script, like I did in ant with the publisher, but maybe in an extended
version of MXMLC?

 Any objections to adding a feature to Falcon/FalconJS/FalconJX to take 
 additional arguments and fix up the HTML wrapper (or –app.xml for AIR)?  I 
 know compilers really should just compile, but the compiler knows much of the 
 information that needs to be substituted into those files.

 For Falcon, I would add an option like –html.template=path to html template 
 and –air.template=path to –app.xml template

 FalconJS/FalconJX would also support –js.source-path=path to more JS source 
 to point to the framework (and goog if we use that) files.

 Thoughts?

 Yeah, I know... head in the clouds, but this is the EXACT reason we
 are going to do what we were talking about with a modular compiler.
 It's ridiculous to even ask this question and then go implement it in
 3 different compilers.
 
I was unable to follow that thread.   I don't think we have three compilers
right now.  MXMLC and COMPC are pretty small front-ends to a common set of
classes and have their own configuration options.  What isn't modular about
that?
