Hi Lee,

Thanks for the suggestion. This is a single project - I have not added any 
custom libraries to it.

I managed to get it working again, but I'm not sure what I did to get it to 
work. I'll pay closer attention to my process to see if I can determine what 
causes it should it happen again.

Check the date of the debug swf flex builder is building to make sure
they are the latest ones...if not that, I'm sure you've already tried
this but a browser cache clear is also something to try. I tend to
always use Firefox with web developer no-cache settings but whenever I
test in Safari or Chrome that stuff always happens to me.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex Builder Out of Memory Errors

[Christopher McArthur]

Yeah, I get this constantly too. I have 4GB of ram, and Flexbuilder
never goes above 700Mb, but still get the errors constantly.

 

Ive also tried everything I can find on google adjusting the memory
settings, tried values all over the place, and nothing, constnatly out
of memory crashes.

 

Our entire dev team gets this and we have a range of winXP, Macintosh,
vista, and windows 7.

 

Upgraded to Flash Builder 4, and no dice, still constant crashing =(

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex Builder Out of Memory Errors

 

  

It's pretty frustrating that Flex Builder regularly crashes with "Out of
Memory" errors during compile and sometimes even when design view is
refreshing. 

After searching for solutions and trying all sorts of memory
configurations in the Flex Builder config file, our dev team finally
gave up looking for a fix, hoping that things would get better in a
patch release. 

Unfortunately, they haven't. With each update of Flex Builder the out of
memory errors continue, sometimes manifesting as silent crashes where
Flex Builder just disappears. Even after we all got new Alienware
computers with 12 GB of RAM, Flex Builder still can't find enough
resources for whatever it's trying to do during compile. Today I
actually got three Out of Memory error dialogs at once, all piled on top
of each other. 

Can someone from the Flex team please shed light on what's going on and
let us know if there is a solution for this problem?

thanks,

Christian

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder build and search functions die on Vista

[Tom McNeer]

Hi,

First, let me apologize for the long delay in replying. Thank you, Peeyush
and Lee, for offering your help.

Lee,

In my case, the only linked libraries are pre-compiled .swcs, not projects
within the workspace. So I don't guess our problems are the same. Thank you,
though.

Peeyush,

All the linkages within each project are strictly to files within the
project, except of course for the linkage to the compiler.

As far as the possibility of some corruption in the workspace goes, you may
well be right; I just haven't had a chance to test it. I'll do so today and
report back. Thank you for your help.

I was having the build problem that you're describing.  In my case, I had one 
project with a separate library project linked to it and it seems that flex 
builder gets confused with that kind of thing, at least in my circumstance.  I 
have had a couple of other projects exhibit the same behavior and as soon as I 
removed the linked projects and included them in the main project (instead of 
linking them) I have not had to manually perform a clean in sometime in order 
to 
get FB to "see" the new source changes for building.

Does changing the workspace location and recreating it help?

Do you have any source linkages in any of the projects to folders located
outside the workspace?

Re: [flexcoders] Flex builder automation?

[Mykola Dzyuba]

Hi Nick,

Yes, it is possible. What is the goal of the automation?

If you want just a clean build done automatically, the ANT build would  
be a good option.

If you want to automate Flash Builder UI, you can develop an Eclipse  
plugin that would do that. Or you can use Eclipse UI automation tools  
like WindowTester and create a script for that.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3 - A little to be desired [1 Attachment]

[Clark Stevenson]

I have not filed a bug yet because i dont really think im good enough to
technically describe the issue. When i went to help > new bug i just got a
page saying the module is missing or deactive on jira.

The best way i can describe it in both FB3 and FB4 is that the actionscript
editor does not notify FB that a change in the editor has been made.

I dont know if i can attach images to this mailing list but the attached
screenshot shows the issue. Joint2 is invalid so i got a runtime error in
red. I then commented out the offending line and resaved it but still the
problem persists. The screenshot shows the offending line of code along with
its error AFTER i have hit save.

Note that this is a completely seperate project to my first email.

Running FB2 and FB3 under 32x never gave me any problems, and if it did, not
with enough frequency to be noticible in the 2 years i used them.
Running FB3 under VISTA Home 64x AMD 64  has this issue
Running FB4 under 7 Ultimate 64x Intel i7, i5 has this issue

It seems there is an inherited bug somewhere which effects 64x OS Windows or
architecture..

When googling this i found little so if you do experience this issue and can
let describe it well, please reply with details.

As far as im concerned even an option to tick to force a clean on save would
save alot of hassle.

Also is there any keyboard shortcut to clean?

Cheers.

The more I work with this product, the more I'm convinced that it is a very 
buggy piece product in very core areas.  All kinds of mysterious compiler 
issues 
with fragments of code not getting linked in all the time, having to perform a 
clean every few changes of code ,which itself takes forever if there is more

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3 - A little to be desired

[Clark Stevenson]

Ugh i can totally appreciate your email.

I have struggled pretty much constantly over the last 2 years with all kinds
of problems.

My favorite one is the one that you describe. For no reason what so ever,
pressing save all of a sudden does not work and you need to goto Project >
Clean. The first time this happened to me i lost out on a job interview
purely because no matter what i did, flex wouldnt refresh and i didnt know
about project > Clean.

Another classic, is that my Project > Settings dialoge on x64 systems does
not work, none of the buttons exist, you need to drag the dialogue box to
make it tiny, select a new option, and resize the dialogue box again to see
what is actually under, say, the class path or add SWC options.

Updating the flex SDK: The whole wrapper issue. This is particulaly poor
because its like Adove decided, "lets make flex 3 a nightmare to update so
you run out and buy FB4"

Dragging a class into your Flex Project source path is often not found. If i
drag zoo.birds.Eagle.as, it is entirely possible that Eagle wont be
available dispite it being in the correct package and folder system.

"Flash player cannot be found, please install a debug version" (fails at 49%
build)

And many more.

I was particulaly depressed the other day when i tried FB4 under an I5 64bit
system and ran into the whole "forced clean after each build", its not
filled me with alot of confidence.

Cheers,

Clark.

Hi all,

Just getting started with Flex and FlexBuilder and I am unimpressed with the FB
IDE (though flex and actionscript are nice to me) and was hoping someone could
help me out with a couple of annoyances.

1. After working in the editor, I ALWAYS have to highlight the project node in
the Flex Navigator before Run, Debug, etc buttons work or say CTRL-F11 to run my
project will work.

2. My projects (different ones I've noticed this with) required that I perform a
"Clean" from the Project > Clean menu before changes will take effect many
times. I've wasted literally hours trying to figure why my code is not working
correctly, until a light bulb goes off and I try the "Clean" option at which the
compiler finally links in the changes.

After working with the likes of Delphi and Visual Studio, I'm very disappointed
in the product if I have to in fact take these annoying steps consistently just
to get my projects to compile and build correctly :-)

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder vs Embedded Fonts - Partially solved

[Warren]

OK -- after some digging I think I know what's going on.  I'm embedding Verdana 
font.  I'm thinking the issue is that the vertical spacing in the font is 
different than the default font Flex Builder is using.  As a result, the 
measurement routine is off.

This feels like a bug to me -- I'll be checking the Adobe bug system next. The 
only way I can figure out how to fix this is to embed exactly the same font 
that Builder is using by default.

Can anyone tell me how to determine this?

Recently I had the need to embed font's in my Flex 3 application. I used 
the CSS code (see below) to embed the fonts and make them global. Worked great 
except Builder went nuts. The Builder display doesn't look like the website. 
Elements are shifted about, text doesn't line up properly (for example, radio 
button text doesn't center on the radio icon), etc. It's a mess. I am using 
Builder version 3.0.2.214193

  So I have two questions:

  1) If I create a swf of the fonts and embed it in flex using the swf, will 
Builder prefer this?

  2) What is the default font for Flex or how do I determine what it is in my 
install? If I knew that, I could embed it and hope that Builder would stop 
messing up.

  3) What Am I Doing Wrong?

Please, *please*, **please* do not just comment !
Please *vote* as well. Adobe have repeatedly said that the number of votes 
sways them, and this has been demonstrated in the past - so vote :-)

Just as an update, this issue is still the most popular one on the whole issue 
tracker by a large margin (#FP-444 has taken 2 years to get to ~75 less 
votes, #FB-19053 has only been open 3 months), and has nearly *~3 times more

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder, Flash Builder, Flash and Catalyst

Hi Bruce 

Flash Builder 4 replaces the product formerly known as Flex Builder. 
Flex know refers solely to the Flex SDK. 

No idea what so ever as to what they are planning on charging.

Hello all, 
I was wondering about a couple things. Is Adobe going to make two separate 
products, Flash Builder 4 (aka Flex Builder) and Flex Builder 4? Maybe I read 
something wrong. Perhaps, Flex 4 is the new SDK and Flash Builder 4 will 
replace Flex 3, so there wouldn't be a Flex Builder 4. 
Then there is Catalyst. Any idea what that will cost when it comes out in it's 
final version? I guess that's a long time away. Anything else that Adobe is 
doing in the area of RIAs?

They are, yes, and that same special player (authplay ?) is apparently in

It's probably not the editor bits that are hard, but the debugging
bits which have to reach outside of the Java world to work. Ditto with
the profiler bits I'd say, and any other components that need to
communicate with AIR directly.

As for the design view, they might be reaching out and using a
platform-specific component to render the design, so that it would
match the output better than rewriting the entire rendering engine in
Java?

Who knows (unless you decompile FB possibly), but Java and Eclipse
aren't inherently cross-platform all the time given what they need to
do.

A really difficullt viewpoint to understand.

FB != Flex - there's always the SDK - most people don't use the design view 
that much - do they?

Why should Adobe invest in a product that costs money to develop but has a 
low adoption rate?

You may not be happy to bet your products on the whim of Adobe, but you do 
seem happy to bet your customers come only from the linux world.

You seem happy to ditch the benefits of flex as a rapid development platform 
for rich applications in favour of  XXX simply because one development tool 
may not be available on Linux - doesn't seem to be a sensible approach to 
decide software architectures.

I don't have a problem with open source, but many people see it as a mantra 
for ife, whch is OK, but sometimes there are indirect costs to avoiding 
commercial wares.

I have yet to meet anyone outside the geek/software development world using 
Linux, so I'm curious about your targetted product market!

Anyway, the choice is yours.

Guy I could use the bare SDK of course. I hadn't really tried it before
because the Flex Builder Eclipse plugin seemed like a good idea. And
there is *some* support for it in the community, I don't know how much.
You're right I should try that before I give up.

"blame" Adobe is not quite right, "trust" is more like it. Watching Java
slowly worm its way out of Sun's grasp to the point where its now more
or less open-source should provide a positive prediction for the
eventual outcome, but Adobe ain't Sun, but then Sun ain't either now.

Does Adobe have the right corporate culture to nurture an open-source
project?   I like the way they are running Flex otherwise, but maybe I
indulged in wishful thinking on the Linux support.

no actually, i thought it was set to expire "any day now". i'm very attached to 
editors (i used cfstudio until last year or so) so i didn't want to have to 
start all over again, twice (went from cfstudio to eclipse because i upgraded 
my 
w/s & couldn't find my cfstudio serial number).

i just had a peak at IntelliJ's features & it doesn't seem to do cf--so its 
useless to me. if you do cf/java/flex/air i think it will be kind of hard to 
escape eclipse.

Did you give the release on Labs a go ? It's very nearly there, the bits of

RE: [flexcoders] Flex Builder Compiler Performance Benchmarking

[Tim Rowe]

With over 2,000 source and resource files in our application (just the 
client-side is 1k as, 500 mxml, there's another 8k8 .java on the server side), 
our compile time is under 30 seconds (on a C2D 2.33 w/4GB), so I would hazard a 
guess something's wrong.

A few things to check/do:
0.  Create a basic application.  Does compiling even the simplest of apps take 
a similar amount of time?
1.  Get a line counter.  There's dozens out there, just grab one you're happy 
with (no, I don't have any particular recommendations).  At least just get a 
file and line counter so you've got some basic metrics to base information on.
2.  What is the system CPU doing?  Is it burning away at 100% while compiling 
the whole time?  Similarly, are you running out of memory?  Eclipse can get 
pretty memory hungry, and if you're only on a 1GB system with Eclipse trying to 
chew 700MB, it could be paging like crazy.
3.  Fire up perfmon and add some counters while you do a compile.  Find out 
what's going on - any heavy disk thrashing, cpu/memory loading.
Basically try to identify is it just doing any timed waits or blocking calls?
4.  Write an ANT target to compile the source from a CLI, if you haven't done 
so already.  Hell, you could even execute it manually.  Does mxmlc.exe take the 
same amount of time as the eclipse build?

These are just a few small things I'd consider trying/looking at which might 
help identify the problem

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex Builder Compiler Performance Benchmarking


Hi Folks:

Can somebody tell me what a reasonable compile-time for a Flex Application is? 
A clean build for my application will take about 2 hours, and an incremental 
compile after I've changed several files will often take an hour. If I've only 
changed one file then an incremental compile will usually take less than a 
minute.

I'm using Flex Builder 3.0 in Eclipse and it would be typical for me to see the 
same error message repeated a dozen times (presumably the compiler has passed 
through the same file that many times).

I was new to Flex when I started this project and I've been working on it for 
about 6 months. I have no idea how many lines of code I've got, but how big 
could it be if it's only been me working on it?! There are about 100 files of 
all sorts and I've cleared out most of the other projects.

After reading others complain about compilation times of only 40 seconds (my 
dream!) I started getting worried that I've fundamentally botched the way I've 
set things up. Any feedback would be very welcome!

Thanks,

Ted.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder Compiler Performance Benchmarking

[Matt Chotin]

We clearly need to see your application and understand your system 
configuration.  This is obviously something going very wrong, I can't imagine 
your compilation taking more than 30 seconds, and even that would hopefully be 
very high.

Can you provide the source for your app to us (you can mail me offlist)?  Also 
send your system specs.

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex Builder hangs and I have to end the process
when opening app in design view

 

I am using latest Flex Builder 3.0.2 on Windows XP Sp2.
I have created a custom component in ActionScript. Then I create
another mxml component based on my ActionScript component. Finally,
when I place this component and open design view, the Builder hangs
and I have to kill it.
I tried a number of things:
1. Changing VM parameters in order to increase memory available to FB
2. Defragmenting my disc
3. Erasing eclipse history
4. Creating new workspaces
If I try to open my workspace on another machine, it will suffer
similar problems, but never did the other programmer have the similar
situation although creating application in similar manner (mxml
component based on custom as component placed on application).
Anyone had similar problems? Found some advice to upgrade machine but
my PC is dual processor and 3 GB ram with enough disc space..

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder debugger problems

[Mark Carter]

I also experience this though it only happens about 5% of the time for me.
I'm debugging my Flex app running in the standalone Flash Player 10.

* Usually, my flex app takes a couple of seconds to launch once the
workspace has finished building.

* About 20% of the time, the flash player window comes up and the app then
takes about 10 seconds to actually start.

* But about 5% of the time, the flash player window comes up and then the
app never actually starts (waiting at least a couple of minutes). If I then
disconnect the debugger, the app then immediately starts as normal.

Its like the debugger is blocking something.

So no need to quit Flex Builder. Just disconnect the debugger.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder debugger problems

[John McCormack]

If the SWF takes a long time to build you will see that.
I sometimes got that when it couldn't find the debugger, but not recently.
It's sometimes slow waiting for something to be loaded/decoded, or  even 
when waiting at a breakpoint.
Because the two programs don't run independently IE may show no content 
when interrupted by Flash/Flex.

Check that your license.properties file exists in the right location
with the right key - the locations are here,

If it doesn't a reinstall of FB3 might help.

Re: [flexcoders] flex builder student version

[Sam Lai]

Yes - I've built an app using a student license from
flexregistration.com and it has no watermarks on the charting
components.

Even better, there is no limitation if you wish to commercialise your
creation - no need to buy a copy of Flex Builder for commercial
purposes.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3 + Eclipse plugins vs. MyEclipse + FB3 plugin?

[s.m.srinivas]

Hi Aswin,

can you please send me screen shot & error message. 

Assuming that you have followed steps correctly and when you click on "Run >
Run As > Flex Application" in the right click menu or on Menu's on top, you
see the message I believe. Am I wrong? Correct me if I am. 

The message clearly shows that, it is looking for "/test.html/test.html"
file, which basically will not be present as you only need to run
"test.html".

If it is same test project which I have posted, then all you need to do is
just select the project and click on "RUN" button, nothing else, you need
not go to menu "Run > Run As > Flex Application" at all.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3 crashes (Vista)

[Kevin Benz]

Been there, done that.

 

OK..

 

There are two paths for you.

 

Eclipse Errors: Eclipse makes mountains of log entries so you need to
isolate Flex issues from Eclipse Issues. Go through the eclipse logs
looking for errant components and Null Pointer Exceptions. Although the
openness of eclipse encourages the addition of all kinds of great and
not so great components (Java, Maven, Data Tools, JDT), I believe
strongly that the Flex development environment should be sandboxed and
kept single purpose. Yes, I have two eclipse installs. 

 

Flex: Flex issues like this, we have found to be resultant to the
operation of Flex and the operation of SCM and SDK upgrades. I see you
are using 3.0.2 which tells me your recently updated to the 3.2 SDK. I
am convinced that Flex cannot handle an SDK upgrade well. Let me
explain. We have a very large project that started during SDK 3.0 with
the project files being checked into Subversion as 3.0 files. Now there
are lots of argument regarding checking in project files as in most
cases they can become platform and developer specific, after going to
the 3.1 SDK we lost the ability to use the compiler options tab in the
project properties window with Flex complaining about the SDK string
value. After a few minutes the IDE becomes unstable and crashes. No
matter what we did, we could not recover (copy files around between
developers, manually fixup the SDK and locale strings). If you checked
out your project again, you have project files built for a different
SDK. 

 

In over for us to overcome this, here is what we do. 

 

1.   BACKUP EVERYTHING

2.   Turn off automatic build

3.   Find all instances of files with the .cache extension within
the Flex plug-in directories THAT START WITH YOUR PROJECT NAME (for
example myproject.cache) and remove them. They automatically come back
when the compiler runs. 

4.   Use FlexBuilder to create a new Empty Workspace. Leave the old
one alone if we need to get back to it. WE DO NOT MAKE ANY CHANGES TO
THE OLD WORKSPACE

5.   In FlexBuilder, create new copies of the project(s) in the new
workspace USING THE EXACT NAMES OF THE PRESENT PROJECTS. Leaving these
projects empty, in their initial state. This will create new project
files with the correct SDK string, locale, etc etc.

6.   Backup these new projects from the new workspace and put them
aside.

7.   If using SCM, checkout the project(s) into the new workspace OR
if not using SCM, copy  OLD project(s) into the new workspace directory.
THIS IS IMPORTANT AS YOU CANNOT RELIABLY MOVE A FOLDER UNDER SCM AND
HAVE IT WORK. IT SHOULD BE CHECKED OUT AGAIN.

8.   From your new workspace, recently checked out or copied, remove
the following files ".project .actionSciptProperties .flexProperties
/.settings/org.eclipse.core.resources.prefs"

9.   Copy the empty versions of these files (that were put aside)
into the new workspace.

10.   Start FlexBuilder and on each project's properties, enter the
Library Build Path, on the classes tab and uncheck /src and save/close
that form. THEN go back in and check that checkbox, close (this forces
Flexbuilder to walk the filesystem and update its catalog of local
classes) and save that form. You are basically faking an import

11.   Back in Library Build Path, the project may need any swc's or
referenced projects that were in the old project configuration.

12.   Turn back on automatic build.

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3 crashes (Vista)

 

Hi everybody,

After some absolutely painless 6 months run, my Flex Builder 3 (3.0.2) 
started to crash every 10-15 minutes under Vista (I know, I know, this 
is beyond my control, I have to live with this).

The only one thing which actually changed is Flash CS4 - all 
components have been recompiled using Flash CS4 for FP9. There is some 
difference as these components now visible all the time in the Design 
View. SWCs compiled with Flash CS3 were very freaky in Design View.

Here is the Java Screen Of Death:
http://mitek.id.au/flex/builder_crash.jpg

A couple of questions:
1. Why Xmx & Xms parameters are repeated twice (see the screenshot)?

2. Why Flex Builder simply ignores C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 
3\FlexBuilder.ini file? I can place any values and parameters there 
and it just ignores them. 

3. Why does it happen and who is responsible? (this question is
rhetorical)

If anyone had this problem before please share your experience.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers,
Dmitri.

Hi,

I have posted an article in my  http://riawanderer.blogspot.com/ blog  which
explains how to install Flex Builder on MyEclipse. This post has Video, Text
& Images showing you the steps to achieve it. Hope it's helpful.

Thanks,

Re: [flexcoders] "flex builder could not publish the project source: null"

[Joseph Balderson]

This just happened to me on a Flex project in FB 3.0.1. What cleared it up was 
I 
had downloaded a linked folder from a repository which was broken because I 
didn't have the same reference as the person who created it. Once I deleted the 
linked folder it exported the source just fine.

RE: [flexcoders] flex builder 3 on mini notebooks

[Jim Hayes]

I've got an eee901 with that spec, and it's an OK little machine for when I'm 
out and about and want low weight, small size and long battery.
Performance is not so bad for what it is, but I've never bothered running 
flexbuilder on it.
When I started with flexbuilder 2 I ran it on a 1.6 single core pentium m with 
less memory (768 I think) and it was just about bearable, so I don't doubt that 
you could run it.
However, the usual screen size on these netbooks (1024 x 600ish) would make FB 
a real struggle in terms of usability even if you are happy for it to be 
running a little slow.
You can get a cheap 15" laptop with dual core and more memory for not so much 
more these days, if you're going to run FB more than once or twice I think that 
would be a wiser choice.

I had one (1.8 Atom) for a day and decided to send it back. It was too

something like FlexBuilder.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3 and SWFObject with IE - blocked content

[Rick Schmitty]

Thanks for the reply Li, but that does not work.  I think the
trasnparent mode was for popups or something if I recall


For completeness of Flex Coders search, Aran Rhee on the swfobject
list provided the fix:

1. give your page(s) the "mark of the web" - by adding this line to your
HTML page. This circumvents IE's "local machine lockdown" which was
introduced in XP SP2 and Vista. This line should go just after your DOCTYPE
declaration.



More info here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms537628(VS.85).aspx




So if you take the examples online and try them in flex builder, just
add that saved from url tag.  This is included in the default adobe
html too

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3 and SWFObject with IE - blocked content

[li wenzhi]

you need to set the wmode to transparent:

varflashvars ={};
varparams={wmode:"transparent"};
varattributes ={};
swfobject.embedSWF("myContent.swf","myContent","300","120","9.0.0","expressInstall.swf",flashvars,params,attributes);

RE: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3 and SWFObject with IE - blocked content

[Tracy Spratt]

The way around that IE thing is, instead of directly declaring the
Object/embed tag, use javascript to instantiate the FlashPlayer.  That

Subject: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3 and SWFObject with IE - blocked
content

 

I'm trying to use swfobject in Flex builder and running into some
issues debugging.

When I launch a debugging session, IE always says it is blocking
content and I have to click to allow blocked content each time

Is there some trick to get it to work? I'm assuming the built in
Adobe JS gets some kinda 'pass' somewhere such that IE doesnt complain
about it

Here's my index.template.html




My Flex App






body { margin: 0px; overflow:hidden }






In order to view this you need JavaScript and Flash Player 9 or
greater

I think there's a bug there somewhere.

What I do is go into the class where the embed tag is and make a  
change to the embed tag, then save, then make the change back again.  
Then run/debug.


Works for me, even though it is a bit of a PITA.

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder caching PNGs

[Fotis Chatzinikos]

Hi Tom,

I had the same problem, did not really found a good solution... It seems
that flex does some kind of trancoding and this does not pick up changed...

What worked is to delete all images, recompile the project, get some errors
on missing resources and then paste the new images and recompile

>From what I can tell FB will not detect changes in files (images, and I

will think nothings different and just show the last compiled version.
 
When I'm doing stuff like that, I've got into the habit of just
adding/deleting a space character to one of the mxml or .as files in the
project, which FB will then notice and force a recompile that *does*
update the resource in the build. It's at least easier than renaming a
whole file.
 
If there's a better way then I'm unaware of it I'm afraid. It does still
catch me out from time to time.

Hi !

I was exactly waiting for an answer like that.

I'm desperatly trying to build a system which would do exactly what  
Flex Builder does except better ;^)

Our projects include

* Third-Party libs (like google modified google code flex lib),
* In-house libs (AS3 and/or MXML components),
* Our Flex app project + all the server-side code (java),
* In-house html template and so on.
Then we export release build and build war to deploy on our Tomcat  
Server
I'm dreaming of automating the process and checking out and run tests  
automatically.

Doy you happen to have an example of your ant file ?
I think what you describe is close to what I want to achieve.

It would be very kind ,

Thanks in advance,

Farid from Paris, France

Re: [flexcoders] Flex builder annoyance - library projects

[Michael Schmalle]

Hi,
I can say ANT is your answer, build the SWC using it. I have very complex
libraries, and all I maintain is a simple ant xml included file (that is
imported from the master build file, this includes multiple project library
builds at once) that lists the front end class clients, the linker resolves
the rest.

This way you can checkout and commit these files in collaboration.

Re: [flexcoders] flex builder 3 and ganymede

[Kurt Wiersma]

I was able to get the latest version of the FB3 plugin to work in
Eclipse 3.4. The first thing I did was make sure I had the latest
FlexBuilder 3 Plugin installer (version 3.0.1 I believe). Then I ran
the installer which told me it couldn't complete the install which is
fine because all you have to do is going to into the new Eclipse
software update dialog hit the tab for "Available Software" and the
button for "Add Site" and then the button for "local". Finally point
to the directory inside your flex builder plugin folder (mine is
/Application/Flex Builder 3 Plugin) called
com.adobe.flexbuilder.update.site.

Experienced the exact same thing and was even going to write up about

later on, as DisplayObject now returns the class definition as 4th  
item and Properties and Methods of DisplayObject as the first item.  I  
created a search scope that had just the refs, perhaps that forced it  
to clean up some ?  Still doesn't resolve the browser window closing  
and browser blocking issues related to launching help and googling is  
far less useful considering the amount of cross over between flex 2/3  
and flash and general AS3.

Can't believe that i miss CHM files from VS.Net development.

RE: [flexcoders] Flex Builder compilation : include-libraries possible?

[Gregor Kiddie]

Additional Compiler Options in the compiler tab is where I can put the
include-libraries options, but I still don't know what this is relative
to... The main source path? The root of the project?

Is it possible to get the Flex Builder compiler to link swcs using
include-libraries rather than library-path?

http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/3/html/help.html?content=projects_7.html
  suggests that you cannot.

Our Ant tasks use include libraries and I'm not keen on altering all our

RE: [flexcoders] Flex Builder Professional

[Jim Hayes]

My copy of FB pro (just updated to 3.1) shows this :

Version: 3.3.1.R33x_r20070911-_19UEkpF-B7Uh2hKy75y
Build id: M20070921-1145

as the version of eclipse.

I have Mylyn running as part of whatever I did to install subversion access 
some months ago(the details of which I forget I'm afraid)

is Mantis the dotproject "issue tracker" or something completely different in 
the context of Eclipse? I expect I show my ignorance here!

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder 3.0.1 and Eclipse 3.4 classic not working together

[Douglas Knudsen]

jazzamin!  I have not tested all functionality yet, I do have work to do
after all, but here is how to get FB 3.0.1 into Eclipse 3.4 Ganymede.  These
are steps using what used to be called a extension point to install plugins
externally, a nicer way to enable easier Eclispe upgrades.

1) Help > Software Updates
2) Available Software
3) Add SIte > Local
4) point to /com.adobe.flexbuilder.update.site
5) In the install dialog following this, you should see 4 features available
for installation, choose them all
6) mash Install and accept the agreements and KACHOW!

note that I am using Vista and have no time to check this under Ubuntu and
also I have no sour Apples around :)

I made a post on this a couple of days ago, I seriously thing it has to do with 
SP1 for Vista. Even ColdFusion takes up to 600,000K on startup and eclipse 
takes up to 350,000 K. I have my own server with windows 2008 and I have never 
seen coldfusion take more than 400,000K. so no idea what is happening. Running 
Eclipse+ColdFusion =99% ram used.

And you are sure you've got the debug player in the web browser Builder

And with FireFox, you've disabled all plugins and used a clean profile ?

Try creating and debugging a single-file local .SWF in a brand new project to

Re: [flexcoders] Flex Builder Debug Issue --- RESOLVED

[jonese]

OK the problem was in my browser. I found a closed bug on adobe's bug
tracker talking about how some plugins like greasemonky and FF3 can
cause issues becuase of a bug in FF3. (should be fixed in 3.01).

I didn't have greasemonkey installed so i shut off all my plugins and
tried it again. It worked without issue. So i slowly began turning the
plugins back on and found the culprit for me was the google toolbar.
Great FF3 is fixed.

Did the same thing in IE and the culprit there was the google gears
plugin NOT the google toolbar (interesting)..

I commented on the "resolved" ticket but who knows if anyone will
actually see that.

Here's the adobe ticket if your interested:
http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-13064

we have symantec anti virus running on our corporate network and it
has been running like this from day one.

I've completely blown away my eclipse 3.3.x installation. downloaded a
