These seem like general SCM questions to me.

Surely you can get cruise control to call a command line statement?
There are command line tools to compile MXML or AS3 based applications
to SWFs or to create component libraries as SWCs. Couldn't cruise
control also call an ant task if you've already got those set up?

Why don't you just define a public static variable on a class with build
number information and update it before building your SWF from the
command line?

I don't see Flex or ActionScript support in it.
And I never had much luck with ANT scripts for Flex from Eclipse either.

Actually, I have.
It just doesn't solve the problem of baking a build number in to the
application's GUI. Does it ?

Where does the build number appear in the application ?
