Ted, Thanks for the for depth of insight. My mind finally has got mxmlc/compc and build scripts in the right prespective.

Typically a single build.xml file sits in the root of the SVN repository for a project. We typically define tasks for incremental SWF and RSL compilation, java compilation, and larger tasks for ground up builds.

In a majority of Cynergy Systems projects, running "ANT tomcat.build" ejects a fully configured Tomcat HTTP/HTTPS server with custom deployed WAR files including compiled SWF/RSL/JARS/JSP/HTML/SERVLETS. > > On any project, we are 12 minutes from having a full configured Tomcat server running on any machine.
