In addition, because the data services subsystem changed, mxmlc no longer takes the 
following options:

■

gatewayurl

■

gatewayhttpsurl

■

proxyurl

■

proxyhttpsurl

■

proxyallowurloverride

■

remoteallowurloverride

■

webserviceproxydebug

The maximum value for the 

default-script-limits

 option is now 60 seconds. This option 

did not impose a maximum value in Flex 1.x.

The 

file-specs

 option has been removed. You do not need to specify 

-file-

specs=filename.mxml

 because it is the default option. If the last option uses a space-

separated list, you can terminate the list with 

--

 before adding the MXML file name; for 

example:

mxmlc -option arg1 arg2 arg3 -- MyApp.mxml

For a complete list of the mxmlc options, see Building and Deploying Flex 2 Applications.

compc

The compc utility compiles SWC files. The compc parameters have changed significantly. For 
usage information, see the command-line help or the Building and Deploying Flex 2 
Applications.

SWC files created by the Flex 1.x compiler or by previous versions of Flash do not work in 
Flex 2. If you try to use a SWC file that was generated by an earlier version of compc or 
output from the Flash IDE, Flex displays a compiler error similar to the following:

Unable to parse SWC catalog for C:\JRun4\servers\flex2\flex\WEB-

INF\flex\user_classes\ModalText.swc: Unknown element in swc section in 
catalog.xml: componentPackage

method output. You 

must manually remove the output.
