I personally don’t like the convention to use comments. It feels more like a
hack than a language feature. But it’s not a show-stopper.
I would vote for [Externs] or @externs rather than /*@externs*/

For what it's worth, Typescript is pushing the metadata (decorators)
concept forward [1]
Angular2 is fully utilizing this concept in the form of annotations [2]
There is also a proposal to add metadata/decorators in Javascript directly

Well, IMO, metadata is additional byte code or JS output. There is no
reason for @externs or @flexjsignorecoercion to be in the output. In
fact, if we used metadata for these direc
What I’d really like to do would be to define a class like this:
package
{
import stream.Stream;
[Extern]
public class JSZip
{
public function generateNodeStream(nsp:NodeStreamParam):Stream{
return null;
}
}
I’m in the same boat.
I think metadata tags feel much better as well.
If tools can help with validating metadata tags it would be even better.

I forgot about th

Yeah, if we could make it work without creating a SWC, I think that would
be ideal. The fewer steps it takes to add third-party libraries to a
project, the better.
I notice that you seem to have a preference for custom ASDoc tags, like

Agreed, because not only do you get type-checking, but you also get to
"bullet-proof" the API. For these JS libraries that you pass
Yes, it should be that simple. If we could make the compc compiler able to
(optionally) generate externs from ActionScript files somehow, that would
make using third-party libraries easier. I think most developers would be
more comfortable writing a few classes in ActionScript for a third-party

I DO want renaming.
My point is that we really need to have an option to disable renaming in
specific places in the code.
My example is a very classic case when interop between outside code is going to
cause problems. I CAN’T use class definitions everywhere. There needs to be a
method to prop
There is a compiler option to turn off renaming in the release build if
you don't care about size.
IMO, use of * and plain Object is going to result in renaming issues. Use
class definitions everywhere. I've mentioned in the past about a compiler
warning on use of * and Object to help. For Obje
I’ve been spending WAY too much time dealing with goog renaming.
I have a good example of the kind of issues I’ve been dealing with. I think
this is an area where Falcon needs to do a better job.
I have some code which looks like this:
var JSZip:* = require("jszip");

In theory, if you use FalconJX to cross-compile those AS files, you should
get the right set of JS files to stick a folder called externs (instead of
js/out). The build script
OK. I guess I’ll rework the definitions into extern js files when I have time.
For now, using brackets seems to work.

This all works well when I debug. However, when I compile a release build, the
“cep global” methods are being renamed and when executed, I get “function
undefined” errors.
I’m not sure what I’m doin
