Hi Mike,

great to hear you are well again and have some time to spend on the AMD
approach!

I set up the as-js-runtime-prototype first, before I started implementing
this solution in the Jangaroo compiler. As always, when I implement (even
my own) specifications, I find flaws and missing aspects or things you
could do more cleverly.
So *after* implementing the AMD approach with Jangaroo 3, I wrote down the
final design on the Wiki page. I tried to include sufficient concrete code
examples, but I can totally see that an updated and Wiki-page-consistent
as-js-runtime-prototype would help, too.
Please stand by for the latest code, and please for the time being, use the
Wiki page as reference.

Sorry for the confusion!

Yes, the source line number references in the generated code are a way to
get around some indirections Jangaroo needs to get each line of generated
code into exactly the same line as the source code. This is the difference
between the solution I implemented for Jangaroo and the solution I propose
for FalconJx. If you take Jangaroo 3 compilation results like the ones from
the Open Flash Chart
demo<http://jangaron.net/ofc5/data-files/joo.html#joo.debug> (for
example charts.Area) and "inline" all member functions declared in the
upper part into the "Jangaroo part" at the end of the file, you'd end up
with my FalconJx proposition. What you save is to give all method functions
a name, which could clash with other identifiers.

I guess that's how I am gonna re-create the as-js-runtime-prototype
JavaScript code: Compile the original AS3 sources with Jangaroo 3 and
inline the member functions and initializers.

If you need more / other examples of how the JS output of some AS input
should look like, I can thus create it for you in no time. You could even
do that yourself (if you prefer), by checking out the "jangaroo-3" branch
of jangaroo-tools <https://github.com/CoreMedia/jangaroo-tools/> and
building it via Maven. For the compiler integration tests, there are *.as
files that are automatically compiled.

If you have any more questions, I am here, listening!

Greetings,
-Frank-
