I wish I could do that! My company is very standards oriented and has just recently allowed to FB4.7 on Windows7, and from feedback I can see, lots and lots of developers are complaining about upgrade (mostly Eclipse4.x/FB problems - 64 bits, Flash, instability, can't launch,...).
Since my team has several complex Flex projects (100K+ lines each) with many dependencies, it will take months to upgrade (if my boss reluctantly agrees), so in any case it's a long process... The bottom line is: it there another solution like sortCompareFunction implementation or anything else ? I need to fix it this week, not after Labor day ;-) On Tue, Jun 17, 2014 at 5:46 AM, Kessler CTR Mark J < [email protected]> wrote: > You should probably upgrade.
