swfmill build automation?

[John]

Anyone have any experience in using swfmill? I'm looking to start
automating a lot more of my Flash build processes (most likely using
swfmill + (MTASC | haXe) + designs built in the Flash IDE for the UI,
and either GNU Makefiles or custom scripts to do the builds) and would
love to know any of your experiences with using swfmill. Any gotchas I
should know about before starting down that route? I don't have any
specific AS version targets, so AS2 or AS3 output is fine.

Thanks,

John

No prior experience here. Good luck and post what you figure out :)

John,

I build our flash application with a bunch of Rakefiles (we're a ruby
shop) I set up that drive compc and mxmlc from the flex sdk. We don't
use MTASC or haXe, but we also don't use the flash IDE.

I don't know about gotchas, but I just finished setting it up and
building about a dozen open source libs with the system, so I can
answer questions about how compc and mxmlc work at the least.

I just peeked @ compc and mxmlc, and it looks like the workflow with
those is similar to MTASC/haXe. I'm not at the point of working on
this project yet, but I'll take both for a spin and see what works.
Thanks!

John
