RE: Working on SDK with source-path option
Well there are two main ways for Monkey Patching. Option 1. Create a package class path starting from your project and add the modified files there. However you'll need to disable RSLs for this to work. Option 2. Keep RSLs enabled. Create a custom preloader for your application and have it make a reference to your modified classes [1]. This is due to the fact RSLs are loaded in frame 1 and classes are a first-in-wins type of a setup.

Well, like I think I said, I've never tried this using FlashBuilder or the IDEs. I work from the command line. But fundamentally, the process should be: Make a monkey-patch, submit the monkey-patch.

Re: Working on SDK with source-path option
So far, I'm not convinced (understatement following) that this way is the way we want to teach to noob contributors... We need to document it, for sure, especially because I'm curious to see it in action, but I now think that although it is more laborious, the method Justin - and myself on occasion - use has better reproducibility and usability.

Re: Working on SDK with source-path option
Yeah. And maybe add more source path so fewer swc get used. But sometimes I have to simply replace the class constant with the actual value. Sent via the PANTECH Discover, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone.

Re: Working on SDK with source-path option
Try copying that file into source path. Sometimes I just temporary alter the method signature. Sent via the PANTECH Discover, an AT&T 4G LTE smartphone.
