I wrote a tutorial that teaches you how to add an externs SWC to an FDT project.
http://nextgenactionscript.com/tutorials/fdt-project-dts2as-javascript-library-swc/ While the tutorial refers to a utility named dts2as, don't spend too much time wondering about that. It's just a way to generate externs SWCs from TypeScript definitions. - Josh On Sun, Apr 17, 2016 at 11:00 PM, Harbs <harbs.li...@gmail.com> wrote: > OK. That helps.
