Hi,
IntelliJ IDEA Built-in compiler shell is future-compatible and it
already supports Apache Flex SDK 4.9. To have it working please check
following:
- Uncheck 'Use external build' at Settings/Prefereces | Compiler (this
step won't be needed in IntelliJ IDEA 12.1, see details [1])
- Make sure 'Built-in compiler shell' is checked at Settings/Prefereces
| Compiler | Flex Compiler
- Make sure that all Flash build configurations of all modules use the
same SDK (Project Structure dialog). If there are 2 or more different
SDKs IntelliJ IDEA switches to mxmlc/compc processes.
I'll give some more comments for your issue in YouTrack [2]

Hi,
I have made some benchmarks compiling the same project with SDK 4.1 and SDK 4.9
using IDEA (12.0.3).
As you may know, IDEA has a super-fast built-in flex compiler, but
unfortunately, it is not (yet?) compatible with SDK 4.9,
so IDEA switches back to compc/mxmlc when SDK 4.9 is selected.
I have filed a ticket on IDEA bug base to ask about that:
http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-100559
In short, compilation time is 2.5 slower with SDK 4.9 with mxmlc/compc than
with SDK 4.x with built-in shell.
I know this is not related to SDK 4.9, but mxmlc/compc that is slower than
IDEA's built-in compiler shell.
However, do you have any idea why IDEA cannot use its built-in shell with SDK
4.9?
Is it just because it has not been tested yet, or is there a more fundamental
reason?

Maurice
