I meditate on the 3 base chakra's during 4-7am whilst considering the
coherence between my left and right testicles. At a certain point I
discharge conceptual code forward through foreign elements into sepy and
charge an application with the spirit of that which I AM.

PEACE hehe

Subject: Re: [Flashcoders] How do you code your Flash applications?

I personally use Eclipse / MTASC, so all code is class based.  In my 
Flash file all symbols that need functionality have a linkage id, and 
almost all of my symbols are only a single frame (unless shape tweening 
is needed).  To make the Flash compile faster, none of these symbols are 
linked to Classes in the Library, this is all done in the external code 
using Object.registerClass.

I find it a lot cleaner to have all of my code in a nice external 
structure, in a decent IDE.  My code is all right where I need it, I can 
control all animation simply (using an animation / tweening library like 
Fuse), and I can let the designers do almost whatever they like to the 
Flash file without worrying about them stuffing code up.  And, of 
course, I get decent version control on the source files.

After using this for a few months, I just wouldn't code inside the Flash 
IDE any more.  Movieclip spaghetti is a bitter dish.

Regards,
Grant Cox
