This package contains interfaces related to <i>targets</i>.

<p>
A project can create multiple <i>targets</i> to build multiple
SWF and/or SWC files.
Each target drives one or more (but not necessarily all) of the
project's compilation units through their compilation phases,
and assembles the resulting ABC or SWF tags into a SWF or SWC.
See the <code>org.apache.royale.compiler.units</code> package
for more information about compilation units.
</p>

<p>
Some configuration options become project settings, while others
become target settings.
For example, the source path and library path are project settings,
but whether a particular SWC is to be linked internally or externally
(that is, whether is "on the external library path") is a target setting.
</p>

<p>
The base interface for all targets is <code>ITarget</code>.
There are two different kinds of external targets, each with its own subinterface:
