(You can have dependencies on classes that aren't imported, since you don't have to import a class if it is in the same package.) But can you explain why you need to know the dependencies? - Gordon

You are right, my need is to compile a page when a request comes in. GraniteDS (http://www.graniteds.org <http://www.graniteds.org> ) provide a MXMLCompilerServlet that compile MXML at runtime if the swf does not exist. I did some simple test, and it works (source code is available on this page : http://code.google.com/p/igenko/wiki/RuntimeMxmlCompiler <http://code.google.com/p/igenko/wiki/RuntimeMxmlCompiler> ). Allan, could you say me how this solution is different from yours ? Gordon, I plan to improve this MXMLCompilerServlet in order to use it in Igenko. Could you give me your advice on how it could be improved : - Currently, mxmlc is ran as an external java program. Where could I find some information/samples to run it directly in the servlet container ? - I have asked to the GraniteDS project leader what was the major issue with this mxmlc runtime compiler, and he answered me (http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/graniteds/message/832 <http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/graniteds/message/832> ) that he couldn't find any way to ask mxmlc to list imports in as or mxml files. Do you have any idea for that ? - Any other idea ?
