Im actually surprised as this implies specific coding for the browser... I know IE doesn’t have this effect and camino (under OSX) appears to run fine.
Oh by the way, this is also true for the debugger too (Flash 9 r16 – which by the way hasn’t been updated to the same level as the one posted on Adobe last week) under OSX.
BTW thanks for checking – much appreciated for the feedback

According to the Player team the Player slow-down when sending Safari to the background is actually intentional. The browser actually reduces the number of CPU cycles dedicated to plugins in a browser when it doesn’t have focus.

Matt,
im working with the Eclipse group (former IBM team) and wondered if there was a bug tracker internally to adobe on what issues etc exist at the moment and how i can submit issues.
In particular, i noticed alot of issues around flex binding to the help system and trying to link into the dynamic environment. Additionally, you might like to know that working with eclipse under windows has an issue that whilst building a project with a flash-9 movie running in the background, results in serious cpu performance issues resulting in a longer build time despite the flash window not having focus.
Finally, if no-one noticed, adobe released the intel binary of flash 9, although its really unclear what is different in this release to 9.0 r16 one thing is very noticable is that whilst running in Safari or any other browser, when you lose focus on the browser window to something other, that the flash animation performance drops considerably.
Im not sure if this is the place to post these kind of posts - if not could someone indicate if adobe themselves are recording these issues at Labs or at the tech forum.
Regards
Samuel

Sorry, fixed internally (and still being fixed). Supported platforms as mentioned in our release notes and whatnot still holds.

Flex Builder definitely had some probs in 3.2 but it doesn't mean it won't run at all.
Oh, thats good to know. My impression based on other statements that I had heard here was that critical things did not work with 3.2. You say "had", does that mean that the problems were fixed? And is eclipse 2.3 a safe bet.

However we do need 3.2 support for the Mac release to work. We are building it right now and as mentioned hope to get it out before the end of the year (though the release date is not announced).

Yes, Eclipse does run under Mac OSX - it was because version 3.2 had issues under MacOSX that adobe didnt port Flex at the same time as the windows release - now this has occurred, it strikes me as a little odd that there isnt a mac version announced.
Hmm...
Not sure where you're getting your info from.
FlexBuilder doesnt even run under 3.2 under windows, so I doubt the issues had anything to do with 3.2. And adobe has said on this forum that there were issues in porting to the mac so they decided to push and get windows out rather than delaying. While on the surface mac and windows clips are fairly compatible, there are differences and apparently some of what flexBuilder is doing relies on one or some of those features that either dont work or are not implemented in mac.
Adobe has said that there will be a mac version and if I am not mistaken the timeframe was estimated at some time towards the end of the year (oct or nov) if I remember right. But in any case its software so who knows. But in any case they have said they are hard at work on it.

As for the extensions - yes you are right in some respects. The compiler is the only bite-code dependant product specific to the OS but you could hash something using the sdk for the mac.

Samuel
PS. No i havent done it ;(

Hi,
does anybody already tried to run Eclipse under Mac OS X? Is that
possible? And what about Flex? Because, all eclipse extensions are in
Java, so is it possible to run Flex plugin for Eclipse under Mac OS X?
Thanks
Tom
