I don't think that this is a compc issue: if memory serves (from a couple of months ago when I looked at the source), the compc ant task just calls out to the command line compc compiler. The limits are in the OS's command line length... -- Maciek Sakrejda Truviso, Inc. http://www.truviso.com

Sorry, Flex doesn't provide any scripts for automatically generating a manifest. The SDK team maintains our manifests by hand and hasn't find it enough of a burden to bother automating the process. But a manifest has a simple format and you should be able to generate one based on a directory enumeration. You can use Perl, Python, or whatever your favorite scripting language is, and call your script using Ant's <exec> task.
