RE: [flexcoders] Flex crashing @ compilation time
That seems like a crazy amount of compilation time for 40 files. Something is wrong. BTW, have you tried creating some library projects and linking to them, instead of having just one source tree? However, you said that Flex is actually crashing during the compile.. is it? Or is it just slow? -rg From: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of The Crow Sent: Tuesday, November 28, 2006 3:13 AM To: flexcoders@yahoogroups.com Subject: [flexcoders] Flex crashing @ compilation time Hello.
