The plugin skeleton is already there ... in flex-utils. I guess starting on the main mojos "compile" would be best. But I think I would need to start this as it's a pretty tricky thing and I would let a lot of inspiration flow from flexmojos into it. As soon as the compile mojo is done, there are about 10-15 differnt little helpers needed (Test Source Prepare, Test-Runner, Flash Sandbox Registration, ...)
Unfortunately I'm currently working on getting the one plugin we have (Flexmojos) running with falcon ... as soon as that's done I would like to have FlexPMD and BLazeDS out of the door. Perhaps then I could do the Falcon Antlr4 + JBurg2 update ... then I was planning on working on the plugin (After all ... we currently do have a working solution) Chris -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Gautam Pandey [mailto:gkpte...@gmail.com] Gesendet: Donnerstag, 16.
