I'm able to get -js-compiler-option to work. It's not ideal, but I can add
it to my examples.
I can't get ADVANCED_OPTIMIZATIONS to work with asjsc at all, though. Not
even the simplest example that I can think of. No externs required.
source/Example.as:
package
{
public class Example
{
public static function run():void
{
trace("hello world");
}
}
}
index.html:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script src="bin/js-release/Example.js"></script>
<script>
Example.run();
</script>
</body>
</html>
Build command line:
asjsc Example.as
Any idea why?
