FYI, I have expanded upon this for my debug version as well:
This adds a timestamp to ever every js reference provided in the debug output
to hopefully thwart the cache. I’ve been having to clear my cache a lot lately,
and I’m hoping this removes the need.

Thanks Brian,
very useful!
Not related, but as well useful, I use maven's build timestamp with defines to
get it in AS3 in the following way:

Best,

As others have stated, there are other ways to do this. Here is how I’m doing
it with maven:
In my case, I’m currently using a timestamp to try to avoid caching. Feel free
to replace with a version, etc.
This will update the template and build time.
<properties>
<timestamp>${maven.build.timestamp}</timestamp>

Subject: [EXTERNAL] CSS & JS file versioning
Hi All,
Is there any possibility defined that lets me define my own placeholders in the
html-template?
For example im using an html template with the following line
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="${application}.css">
Is there anything helpful already existing in the compiler so I can add a
version to my css like so:
href="${application}?v=12345678" />
Thank!
