Optimizations

Compiler settings and doc comments directives that can be used to improve generated output

Warning: This document is a work-in-progress/undergoing review.

Optimization options

The following content explains optimizations for javascript output that you can use when configuring the Royale compiler directly or by using doc-comment directives in your actionscript code.

Compiler Configuration Settings These are settings that affect the output of the current compilation based on compiler configuration settings.

Doc-Comment Compiler Directives These are settings that affect the output of the current compilation by using doc-comment compiler directives in your actionscript code.
