That explains why Array.prototype.sort() and Array.prototype.reverse() were missing return values. I've submitted a pull request to the google closure project ( https://github.com/google/closure-compiler/pull/1359/files). Could we incorporate this fix without waiting for the closure-compiler project to be updated? Right now, we get this error: Implicit coercion of a value of type void to an unrelated type Array. var r:Array = [1,2].reverse(); I can see that the "externc.js.swc" build target in flex-falcon/build.xml generates js.swc and that flex-falcon/externs/js/js-compile-config.xml specifies which google closure extern files to use, but the closure-compiler files (es3.js, etc) are not included in the project. Does the generation of js.swc involve a manual process of downloading these files, or are they retrieved in some script? Another example error related to these extern files is: Implicit coercion of a value with static type Object to a possibly unrelated type int. var x:int = [1,2].pop(); ...which I've created a flex-falcon pull request for ( https://github.com/apache/flex-falcon/pull/4). There are other errors I'm getting, for which I can create pull requests or bug reports.
