Hi all, as you know I have been involved with the Royale project even when it was still called FlexJS. However even if I invested a huge amount of time in the project, this was mainly in the backend. I never really built anything with FlexJS/Royale. I was always looking forward to getting my fingers dirty (in a good way) with building applications.
Now I am finally doing so. And I am probably making some mistakes typical new users of Royale would be making. So I thought it might be good if I write down my findings. Perhaps it might be good to change some defaults to make it simpler for people to get started. One of the things that just recently bit be, was AS metadata … I was giving Crux a try and really confused why it’s not working at all. With my background in build-stuff I compared my settings with the ones of the examples … I noticed I wasn’t explicitly keeping some of the AS Metadata. So I thought … why explicitly add metadata to the list and instead perhaps explicitly drop metadata? I mean if I’m not using something, it will not be kept, so it wouldn’t change anything. If I am using Metadata it would per default be kept per default, and if I know it’s not used and it makes the result better, I could exclude things from the build. This could help avoid some of the problems newcomers might be having? Chris
