aharui commented on issue #233: ASDoc comments are not available after making an @externs SWC URL: https://github.com/apache/royale-asjs/issues/233#issuecomment-392124897 The Flex compiler would output DITA, but I don't think it ever parsed it. I think there were XSLT transforms to generate the HTML for ASDoc web pages and I suspect that Flash Builder had its own parser written in Java when pulling DITA files from a Fat SWC. I don't know if the format is documented. You can generate a pile of DITA files by using the Flex MXMLC on the Flex SDK sources with the -keep-xml="true" option. Generating DITA looked painful so in Royale we opted for JSON. Also, Royale organizes the JSON files a bit differently to optimize for lazy downloading at startup for the Royale ASDoc app. And because the Royale ASDoc app is written in AS, I figured JSON might be faster than XML parsing. So, if you can get VSCode to handle JSON in Fat SWCs that would be helpful since the Royale compiler can generate JSON for ASDoc. The Royale ASDoc app and JSON files are in the royale-website repo.
