I got some interesting information from the original FalconJS developer. He said he is not using Resig's Simple JS Inheritance scheme and is using Google's base.js instead. I guess I was led astray by one of the comments in the source. I took a look at base.js and don't see the extend() API so I'm still trying to find out more. So I will probably totally replace adobe.js shortly.
Also, he said that base.js melts away to nothing with google closure compiler in advanced mode. Also, I'm still trying to understand some information he gave me about BURM and AST. -Alex On 12/5/12 1:54 AM, "Michael Schmalle" <apa...@teotigraphix.com> wrote: > > Quoting Frank Wienberg <fr...@jangaroo.net>: > >>> I hear you Alex, the interest is 110%, the time is another factor.
