Although the Flex command-line compiler (mxmlc) can compile MXML + ActionScript files into SWFs

  • 0

Although the Flex command-line compiler (mxmlc) can compile MXML+ActionScript files into SWFs, I need specific insights into its capabilities, via the command-line switches.

  • Configure which language you’re writing in, ActionScript 2 / 3
  • Configure which Flash Player version you’re targetting, 7 / 8 / 9 / 10
  • Configure what frames of the movie, contain what ActionScript code.

An article covering Mxmlc, an intro to the Flex SDK.

  1. $> mxmlc --help target-player  -target-player <version>     specifies the version of the player the application is targeting.     Features requiring a later version will not be compiled into the     application. The minimum value supported is '9.0.0'.

    You can’t define the language afaik – mxmlc version 3 is an actionscript 3 compiler only. There may be some backwards compatibility, but it’s not a combined AS2 and 3 compiler.

    I’m not even sure what your third point actually means, or in fact what you’re asking overall.
