Re: [flexcoders] How to recover from 'cleaning' project?

[Phil Marston]

Thanks Mike, but "Falls at the 1st hurdle!" I renamed my old project lots of things (including oldProj) and the new project wizard says " F:\Project_Data\flex\Restaurant overlaps the location of another project: oldProj" - amazingly it worked when I named the new project any old thing and then renamed it and it's main mxml file to the name I wanted. Only trouble now is while it'll run now, which ever way I copy things across from one project to the other I get an empty movie when I try to run it.  Will keep trying. :'( Michael Schmalle wrote: Hi, This is what I do, Rename your project, oldProj or something. Create a new project with the same name as your old one. If I were you with this still in beta, rebuild your project if not to complicated. In the new project, you then have new swf's and .html files. You also could copy the files back into the old and rename it back. But, when something like that happens to me, I am more than willing to just start from scratch with a new project with the same name. It only takes me about 1-2 minutes to rename, move and delete stuff and it's back up and running. If anybody knows a better way, I am all ears.

For some reason Flex Builder didn't seem to be incorporating changes I'd made to source files, so I figured there was some sort of caching issue (I don't really know how Eclipse works) so I figured if I clear out all the compiled stuff and get FB to build from scratch that'd do it ... big mistake it's now refusing to build apparently because the html file to display the swf in is missing - my projects bin directory is empty! What do I have to do? :'( -- __________________________________________________________ Phil Marston Learning Technologist Learning Technology Unit Edward Wright G33, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, AB24 3QY, UK [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: +44(0)1224 273329 / +44(0)7798 723660 http://www.abdn.ac.uk/diss/ltu/pmarston/ http://www.abdn.ac.uk/diss/ltu/ __________________________________________________________ The University of Aberdeen Open Day 29th August 2006 Booking is essential www.abdn.ac.uk/openday email [EMAIL PROTECTED] or call 0800 027 1495 -- What goes up, does come down. -- ______________________________________________________________ Phil Marston Learning Technologist Learning Technology Unit Edward Wright G33, University of Aberdeen, Aberdeen, AB24 3QY, UK [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: +44(0)1224 273329 / +44(0)7798 723660 http://www.abdn.ac.uk/diss/ltu/pmarston/ http://www.abdn.ac.uk/diss/ltu/ ______________________________________________________________ The University of Aberdeen Open Day 29th August 2006 Booking is essential www.abdn.ac.uk/openday email [EMAIL PROTECTED] or call 0800 027 1495 __._,_.___ -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Web site design development Computer software development Software design and development Macromedia flex Software development best practice YAHOO!
