Tutorial Details
  • Platform: Flash
  • Program: FDT

AntPile is an open source project I started to help Flash developers get up and running with Ant quickly. AntPile is a collection of Ant Scripts which cover everything from building a SWF, SWC, AIR, Android and even Unit Testing. The source code can be found at http://github.com/theflashbum/AntPile.

    Hey guys,

    When working with Ant Pile + FDT, consider using the features introduced in 4.1 and 4.2 to make it much easier to get up and going.

    A lot of what was covered in these videos can be sped up using template variables:

    Sorry about the volume, I did this when my kid was sleeping. I’ll see what I can do about making it louder. Other then that I hope you enjoy the project and find it useful. I will be updating it for iOS packager and Playbook in the near future.

    Nice! Jesse can you please make a tutorial on unit testing? You know, explaining what it is, why should do it, how to do it, benefits, etc.

    Thanks.
