Makes perfect sense. I think for the time being we'll have to set this 
one aside and consider it an anomaly with this specific system, seeing 
that it works on all others.


I did reset the preferences to the default, but that still didn't make a 
difference with the debug browser selection.


Thanks for your input though. It is valuable to learn more about the 
internals of Flex Builder.

Some of the built-in browsers have browser-specific code that controls
how they are launched. By clicking "Restore Defaults," you are
restoring that browser-specific code as well as the preferences you
can see onscreen. If you just edit the arguments, that may not
interact properly with the Java code that is behind it.

Actually, even better than what I said before -- manually changing
Safari's arguments -- would be to just click the "Restore Defaults"
button at the bottom of that preference page.

[flexcoders] Re: Flex Builder 2.0.1: Change Browser for Debugging

2007-08-30 Thread Mike Morearty
How did those values get in there -- did you install them manually, or
were they already there?  If they were already there, what version of
Eclipse are you running?

A raw Eclipse installation, without Flex Builder, does not add Safari
to the list of browsers.  They couldn't get it to work, so they don't
add it to the list at all (see Eclipse bug
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=155908 , logged by me).

Since Eclipse doesn't add it, Flex Builder does.  But here is how Flex
Builder adds it:

Name: Safari
Location: /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari
Parameters: (empty)

Try changing it to that, and see if it works.

Re: [flexcoders] Re: Flex Builder 2.0.1: Change Browser for Debugging

2007-08-30 Thread Jurgen Beck

Strange indeed.

Shell script opens up Safari without any issues. Remember that the same 
is true for FB when opening help documentation. It brings it right up in 
Safari.


The preferences in FB for Safari are set to:

Name: Safari
Location: /usr/bin/open
Parameters: -a Safari %URL%

This obviously works, as FB starts up Safari when using the help documents.

For what it's worth, I checked this out on a MacBook Pro running Mac OS 
X and I now understand why everyone agrees that the debugger should 
start up based on the selection in the preferences. Didn't have any 
problems there to switch between the browsers.


Only conclusion that I can draw for the problem Mac OS X install is that 
Flex Builder is having an issue picking up the browser preference when 
targeting a browser for debugging and must revert back to the system's 
default browser.


Shell script works, preferences seem to be working for FB help 
documentation in Safari. The problem shows up when starting a debug session.


I wonder if we are having issues with the underlying Eclipse framework.

Strange.  For what it's worth, the exact command line used by Flex
Builder to launch Safari is:

  /usr/bin/open -a %1 %2

where %1 is the full path to the browser specified by the Eclipse
browser preferences, and %2 is the URL of your app.  So, it is
normally this for Safari:

  /usr/bin/open -a /Applications/Safari.app/Content/MacOS/Safari

Try that from a shell script (without the URL on the end), and see if

2007-08-29 Thread Mike Morearty
Hi Jurgen,

Carlos was correct -- changing the value in Window > Preferences >
General > Web Browser is how you change what browser Flex Builder uses
to debug.  If that doesn't work for you, then something is going
wrong, but I am not aware of any bugs in that area.

There is no per-project setting that is in any way related to this. 
The only per-project setting is, what URL is used when launching; but
this has no effect at all on our choice of which browser to use.

Just curious: What operating system are you on?  What is your system
default browser, and what browser are you trying to force Flex Builder
to use?  Is there anything nonstandard about how you installed any of
your browsers -- e.g. did you install Firefox into a nonstandard
location, or anything like that?

I can't really think of much that would be going wrong here, but with
more info, I might be able to take a guess.
