There is no way around rewriting some code at least. The MTASC site
gives you some hints about it. The gain is better type safety and faster
compiling. Personally, since the time i'm using MTASC in my projects, i
i try to avoid Flash as much as possible.
My current setup contains Eclipse, FDT, Ant, MTASC, SOS and the original
Flash debugplayer. Works like a charm.
I like the flexibility this setup gives me, but i'm know, it is not for
everyone. Once i prepared a speech about open source tools and created a
list of all the features of the flash ide. I was really astonished, how
long this list became in the end. So if you need a lot of the different
functionalities of flash, it may still be the best to use the original ide.
Cheers,
Ralf.
