I use the stand alone player to debug.
I've changed the debug paths to *-debug.swf in my
debug settings.  You can do this by clicking on the little
arrow next to the "bug" button in Flex Builder and then go to "debug".

Another method for fixing this can be using > project > clean.

I occasionally have a similar problem in that I'll make changes to
code but when I run or debug the application in Firefox from Flex
Builder it's the same version as the one before the changes were made.

It turns out that for reasons unknown Firefox caches the SWF and
doesn't recognize that it's been changed. If I clear the browser cache
(using the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar plug-in) and run again
everything is fine. It took me a while to figure out what was going
on, but it's now quite easy to solve this problem when it occurs.

Browser caching might not be what is causing your problem, but try
clearing the cache next time you see this problem and see if it helps.

Dusty, can you check if you get the following error in the
error log in the Plug In Development perspective of Eclipse 3.2 ?

Uncaught exception in compiler

According to this
page,
this error should be fixed ...

MXML Compiler and compc:
178814 Uncaught exception in compiler

This is what is causing our headaches ; )

I also ran into these types of errors.
Only thing that works for me is create a new main class
and copy paste the code from the previous main class.

Then I set the latest main class to the default application.
This forces Flex Builder to recreate the swf files and it
gets rid of the errors you described.

Very annoying !

I did a complete uninstall of everything, deleted all
project/workspace files, fixed the problem in the Version
Control(Cannot sort on a private variable), re-installed everything,
and re-imported from version control.  It works now!
