Hmmm I think this is the way Flexmojos used to work in the old days, but has since switched to using the oem-compiler thingy ... don't 100% understand what that is into all details, but as far as I understand, it's an API for directly communicating with the Compiler mainly used by OEMs for creating IDEs and Tools utilizing Flex.
I recall this had a great performance improvement over the command-line wrapping solution, so this is more the way I am going to choose. Anyway ... the compiler is Java and so I would like to instantiate it and communicate with it directly using some pre-defined API.

Hi Christofer, I would certainly not claim to be an expert in the matter, but I have gathered quite some knowledge by contributing to GradleFx ( http://gradlefx.org/). Much like FlexMojos is a Maven plugin for compiling Flex apps, GradleFx is a Gradle (http://gradle.org/) plugin to achieve the same goal. It's open-source, so you're welcome to take a look at how we implemented things. I guess you would especially be interested in the org.gradlefx.cli package ( https://github.com/GradleFx/GradleFx/tree/master/src/main/groovy/org/gradlefx/cli). We used Gradle's built-in ANT task executor to execute the compile command through Flex's own ANT task. The CommandLine Interface wrapping is fairly complete, but there are two things still missing: - module support (see https://github.com/GradleFx/GradleFx/issues/46) - full AIR/mobile support (only partially implemented, also see https://github.com/GradleFx/GradleFx/issues/25) Feel free to ask questions if you think we can be of assistance.
