Max and I were thinking making our bidi-TextField workalike class use plain as3 syntax, so it can be compiled directly with the flex compiler , and then trying to drum up some interest from the flex developers community in helping improving and maintaining it.
The only problem there is that it won't just compile like an ordinary LFC file. Either we come up with some more "file at a time" passthrough syntax, or else I am thinking that when someone needs to modify it, there's an ant target to compile it as a flex .swc library, using compc, and put it in our WEB-INF/flexlib directory. Then it gets linked against automatically when the LFC is compiled. I am not sure if it's worth the extra hack to make this work, in the somewhat optimistic hope of getting some free help in maintaining this code. -- Henry Minsky Software Architect [email protected]
