In working on larger Actionscript/Flash projects, I've started to really feel the need for some kind of "make" system, but I haven't found it yet. Does anyone know if it exists?

Required features:

  • Ability to associate SWCs with their source code and/or FLAs i.e. "this swc is compiled from this source"
  • Ability to mark my current project as depending on these SWCs (either as compile-time or runtime libraries)
  • A single, big shiny button, that when pressed does the following:
    • Checks to see if any of the source files have changed, and if so, recompiles their associated SWCs
    • Recompiles and relinks the main .swf, if necessary
    • Runs the main .swf

Have yet to find a way to get something like FlashDevelop to do this (but I don't know it well enough to be sure). Support for both code and FLA sources is preferred.
