ActionScript 3 Getting started with ActionScript 3 Building Flex or Flash projects at the command line using mxmlc
Example
The Flex compiler (mxmlc) is one of the most important parts of the Flex SDK. You can edit AS3 code in any text editor you like. Create a main class file that extends from DisplayObject.
You can trigger builds at the command line as follows:
mxmlc -source-path="." -default-size [width in pixels] [height in pixels] -default-frame-rate [fps] -o "outputPath.swf" "mainClass.as"
If you need to compile a Flash project (as opposed to Flex) you can add a reference to the Flash library as follows (you'll need to have the Adobe Animate IDE installed):
mxmlc -source-path="." -library-path+="/Applications/Adobe Animate CC 2015.2/Adobe Animate CC 2015.2.app/Contents/Common/Configuration/ActionScript 3.0/libs" -static-link-runtime-shared-libraries=true -default-size [width in pixels] [height in pixels] -default-frame-rate [fps] -o "outputPath.swf" "mainClass.as"
Or on Windows:
mxmlc -source-path="." -library-path+="C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Animate CC 2015.2\Common\Configuration\ActionScript 3.0\libs" -static-link-runtime-shared-libraries=true -default-size [width in pixels] [height in pixels] -default-frame-rate [fps] -o "outputPath.swf" "mainClass.as"
