Some kind of make target? By default a simple "make" will include all qooxdoo files. We call it the "source" version. We have a different make target "make build" which includes only the needed files into one single JavaScript file and performs some optimizations. The normal build is intended for development, while the "build" version is meant for deployment of the application. You can find some more information on the skeletons in our wiki <http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/0.7/skeleton>. > > Also, when using firebug - it can be quite difficult to navigate to > the Application.js file, for example. Reducing the number of source > files to just the required ones would be a big help. You can tell the build system to just include the required files in the "soure" version by setting the Makefile variable APPLICATION_COMPLETE_SOURCE to false <http://qooxdoo.org/documentation/0.7/makefile_defaults#application_complete_source>. If you do this make sure to run make each time you use a new qooxdoo class in your code. > > I look forward to responses, and I'm sure I will have more questions.
