Thanks for the explanation. Much needed. I am still struggling to get up and running in RobotLegs. So reading on a lot,what might have gone wrong.

@ Alexandru Ghiura Thx for the link, it make sense that if you use a library(SWC) that needs to keep a certain metatag, than that project using that library doesn't have to add the keep-as3-metadata compiler argument

About why you don’t need to use -keep-as3-metadata +=Injection if you use the SWC you can find the answere here: http://jacwright.com/blog/72/using-your-own-custom-metadata-in-as3/

“I was thinking that these meta where holy blessed keywords that only Adobe could create.”

Me too. I had not used Swiz or Robotlegs yet, just Cairngorm and Mate (which I like a lot except for the “magic strings”) and they both do not make use of metadata. So thanks for including in your post about how the [Inject] and [PostConstruct] metadata is used at runtime via flash.utils.describeType. Here is the documentation for that method (I believe it was the only thing that wasn’t linked in your post.)
