[osflash] [ANN] metaas 0.5

[David Holroyd]

metaas 0.4 has been released:

  http://www.badgers-in-foil.co.uk/projects/metaas/

metaas provides Java applications with a 'Document Object Model' for
ActionScript 3 code. Its primary function is generating code, but it
allows existing .as source files to be loaded, and simple modifications
to be made.


The main changes in this release are,

- The 'auto import' functionality has been improved a bit.  An
  ActionScriptProject can now have a classpath, so that you can
  reference the .swc files that come with Flex2, for instance.

- Incorrect interface definition code generation (and bad implements-
  clauses in class definitions) were fixed.

- Regular-expression literals are now accepted by the internal parser,
  which just means that it's now possible to generate code that uses
  them.

- General improvements/fixes to the ActionScript parser, though still
  not to the point that all of the code for the mx.* packages from
  Flex 2 are accepted.


The latest API documentation is here,
