stop traces in swc-library (actionscript3)

Question

There are a lot of traces embedded in a swc-library I'm using in flash-builder. Can I get rid of them without touching its code? How?

Thanks

no: unless you edit the swc source and recompile, no AFAIK – George Profenza Mar 15 '11 at 11:35 — George Profenza, Mar 15 '11 at 11:35

You can use the stripper tool from Joa Ebert Apparat framework :

stripper -i my-swc-library.swc

Stripper
This tool removes all debug information from a SWF file. It is a type-safe removal keeping
side-effects. This means a loop like this while(iter.hasNext) { trace(iter.next()) } Would be rewritten like while(iter.hasNext) { iter.next() } Stripper removes also all debug releated bytecode. Example: stripper -i input.swf -o output.swf stripper -i inputAndOutput.swc

in Flash Builder under project properties: omit-trace-statements set to true.

then it should skip all traces.

omit-trace-statements set to true has [known issues](http://stopcoding.wordpress.com/2010/04/21/how-omit-trace-statements-works-or-does-not/), so it's best to use the Apparat framework. – simonrichardson Mar 15 '11 at 14:23
omit-trace-statements will turn off your traces as well, not only those from the verbatim swc. – daniel.sedlacek Mar 16 '11 at 13:26
