Falcon is written in Java 1.6. Its build scripts use Ant 1.7. Eclipse projects for development use Eclipse 4.2 (Juno).

The Ant script downloads several third-party JARs. One third-party JAR must be installed as a prerequisite. See the README file for more information.

Information about Ant targets will be available by the time of donation.

All the compiled Java classes that comprise Falcon are packaged as falcon.jar. It , which is generated at generated/dist/sdk/lib. Other JAR files such as falcon-mxmlc.jar and falcon-compc.jar are codeless launcher JARs which serve only to run a particular entry point within Falcon. Launchers such as the shell script mxmlc or the batch file mxmlc.bat simply run these launch JARs from the command line.
