Can ActionScript tell when a SWF was published?

Question

I\'d like to write a little class that adds a Day/Month box showing the date a SWF was published from Flash.

The company I work for regularly produces many, many SWF

Answer 1

Not sure if this would work, but could you use an 'include' statement which calls in an externally generated .as file at compile time which has the (then) current date hard-coded into it? You'd need to have a script of some kind running on your server to update this file once a day to keep it current.
