If necessary, I believe that we can create our own custom playerglobal.swc without running into license issues.
Basically, the official playerglobal.swc contains only the APIs, and no implementation, so it's basically like the typedef/externs SWCs that we create for JS libraries in Royale The Apache Flex repo contains full ASDoc XML files for playerglobal.swc under an Apache license. These files should contain enough information about variable/property types and method signatures that someone could write a parser to get all of the data we need to generate AS3 stub classes and build a SWC from that. -- Josh Tynjala Bowler Hat LLC <https://bowlerhat.dev> On Sun, Jan 3, 2021 at 11:07 AM Harbs <harbs.li...@gmail.com> wrote: > Let’s wait and see whether we are dealing with real issues or not.
