AW: Adding support for FlexJS & FlexJX to Flexmojos

[Christofer Dutz]

So how would I setup this scenario?
I have a flexjs-compiler jar artifact that has dependencies on 
falcon-compiler.jar?
Would I add an additional flexjs-compiler artifact to the rest and somehow tell 
Flexmojos which compiler implementation class it should use? Having a look at 
the code, I think it would be an option to have something like this:

    <build>
        <sourceDirectory>src/main/flex</sourceDirectory>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>net.flexmojos.oss</groupId>
                <artifactId>flexmojos-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>7.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
                <extensions>true</extensions>
                <dependencies>
                    <dependency>
                        <groupId>org.apache.flex.compiler</groupId>
                        <artifactId>falcon-compiler</artifactId>
                        <version>0.0.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
                    </dependency>
                </dependencies>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

For normal compilation and something like this for fle

    <build>
        <sourceDirectory>src/main/flex</sourceDirectory>
        <plugins>
            <plugin>
                <groupId>net.flexmojos.oss</groupId>
                <artifactId>flexmojos-maven-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>7.1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
                <extensions>true</extensions>
                <configuration>
                    <compiler>flexjs </sourceFile>
                </configuration>
                <dependencies>
                    <dependency>
                        <groupId>org.apache.flex.compiler</groupId>
                        <artifactId>falcon-compiler</artifactId>
                        <version>0.0.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
                    </dependency>
                    <dependency>
                        <groupId>org.apache.flex.compiler</groupId>
                        <artifactId>falcon-js </artifactId>
                        <version>0.0.3-SNAPSHOT</version>
                    </dependency>
            </plugin>
        </plugins>
    </build>

Then I would need some code in Flexmojos to use MXMLJSC instead of MXMLC. So it 
seems there is no change needed to the Framework?

FalconJX takes care of the cross compilation to JS. This is a separate project 
in the flex-falcon repository. It basically uses Falcon to create the AST and 
then traverses that to create Javascript. To complicate
matters: this Javascript is then passed to the Google Closure Compiler for 
optimalisation and minification ;-)
