Lately I actually copy all packages to a folder within my project's folder. Why? Suppose you have a package and you use it on project A. Later, you use it on project B, and realize there are some issues, so you change some of the code. Project B finishes. Then, later on, you find you have to go back to project A with some tweaks and republish it. Because of changes in the package, there may be problems--at best you will still have to spend time regression testing.
Copying your packages to a project-local folder means that you have a secure "snapshot" of the package. ― Mike Keesey > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:flashcoders- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dan Rogers > Sent: Monday, September 25, 2006 4:36 PM > To: Flashcoders mailing list > Subject: [Flashcoders] How do you manage your classes? > > Flashcoders, > > I've been wondering how other flash developers deal with AS2/AS3 > class management on both a project-based and common library level, > while addressing the need to package up source code for a given > project to deliver to a team member or client. > > I've used version control before, as well as doing the common > classpath thing for shared classes... but when it's time to deliver > the source code to someone, I would have to go in and hunt for all > the classes I used on a project and copy them to the FLA directory > (and recreate the com.package... structure as well).
