Building Flex Application with Flex Builder installed in a remote server

Building Flex Application with Flex Builder installed in a remote server and different developers accessing it via VNC etc
I have a requirement as below..........this is mainly to look for a solution where we can see a environment.............where we can stop developer to install flex builder locally, download/check out code locally and work locally ..............Please have a look ........
1. There is Remote Server hosting our source code say 1st Remote Server
2. There is another 2nd Remote Server which support workspace for each user
3. Flex Builder installed in the 2nd Remote Server
4. Each Developer connects to the 2nd Remote Server via VNC etc log in to their workspace
5. Each developer check out code in their workspace by connecting to 1st Remote Server.
6. Start Flex Builder instance which is running in the 2nd Remote Server
5. Each developer open source code modifies, build application in their workspace and check
Do anyone have any idea whether this kind of environment is possible in Flex or can anyone suggest something which is almost close to this ? I heard Cloud Computing is something that world is looking to represent this kind of solution .............not sure though

Hi
The concept of cloud computing is not even very clear to me
I think this is what I understood about it ...........from this link http://communication.howstuffworks.com/cloud-computing.htm
It says
"Instead of installing a suite of software for each computer, you'd only have to load one application. That application would allow workers to log into a Web-based service which hosts all the programs the user would need for his or her job. Remote machines owned by another company would run everything from e-mail to word processing to complex data analysis programs. It's called cloud computing, and it could change the entire computer industry"
"There's a good chance you've already used some form of cloud computing. If you have an e-mail account with a Web-based e-mail service like Hotmail, Yahoo! Mail or Gmail, then you've had some experience with cloud computing. Instead of running an e-mail program on your computer, you log in to a Web e-mail account remotely"
My issue is not with the license. The solution that I am looking for is
1. Don't want the developer to download the source code in any fashion either checked out or anything else in the local machine
2. Want the developer to work directly on the server
3. Looking for a solution where each developer is not required to install Flex Builder locally and the developer can use Flex Builder that is installed on the server and in his workspace and create/modify build on the server itself
Hope I could make you understand this time ................

  • Building Flex application with Flex Builder in a Remote Server - Cloud Computing

    Hey Guys
    I have a query or its confusion probably
    I was just thinking if this kind of solution is existing or possible with say cloud computing or anything else?
    This is what we all probably do for building our flex application?
    1. There is Remote Server hosting our source code
    2. Developer check out the code in their system locally by some Configuration tool like Perforce, CVS etc
    3. Developer Install Flex  Builder IDE locally and open the IDE and then create.build locally and then on testing check in the code in repository
    All this is fine but we have some problem here
    a. We have to get all the source code checked out/downloaded in some local machine
    b. We have to install Flex Builder in each every developer machine with license.
    A possible modification in the above can be as follows
    1. Don't download/check out the source code locally in each machine
    2. Create a mapped network drive of the Remote Repository and then work directly with the mapped network drive
    3. Install Flex Builder  locally
    4. Start Flex Builder create a Flex Project with source code in the mapped network drive
    But this has some potential problem as now the building of the flex application directly work with the mapped network drive. This is very slow especially when we Keep the "Build Automatically" Check box to true
    My question is that can we have a solution like this ?
    1. There is Remote Server hosting our source code
    2. There is another 2nd Remote Server which support workspace for each user
    3. Flex Builder installed in the 2nd Remote Server
    4. Each Developer connects to the 2nd Remote Server log in to their workspace
    5. Each developer check out code by connecting to 1st Remote Server. This code which is checked out now goes in their workspace in the 2nd Remote Server
    6. Start Flex Builder instance which is running in the 2nd Remote Server
    5. Each developer open source code modifies, build application in their workspace and check
    I think this is something that I heard cloud computing can do ? Do anyone have any idea whether this kind of environment is possible in Flex or can anyone suggest something which is almost close to this ?

  • Building Android application with Flash Builder 4 and flex 4.1

    Hi,
    Currently I am building an application for Android using Flash Builder 4. Previously, when my coding utilized the spark component of TextInput, it works perfectly in the Android device, but recently I found that using the spark component of TextInput won't be able to access the virtual keyboard in Android, but the mx component  of TextInput is working fine. Spark components are not compatible with Air for Android under flex 4.1? Please advice.Thank you.
    Regards

    The spark TextInput is not optimized for mobile in Flex 4.0/4.1.  See this thread for more information: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4600550/missing-on-screen-keyboard-for-flash-flex-web-a pplication-on-android/4735544#4735544

  • Porting the Flex Project with Extension Builder 2.1 to CC(2014)

    Hello,
    I am trying to port the Flex project developed in Flash Builder 4.6 with Extension builder 2.1, to InDesign CC (2014).
    As per the SDK help it mentions I can use the same environment mentioned above to port the project. But when I try it is giving error " This extension cannot be installed, it requires InDesign version in range of inclusively between 9.0 and 9.9.
    Do I need to set anything before compiling the plugin for CC(2014)? Or do I need to port in some other environment? If yes where can I get the details of other environment?
    Thanks for the help in advance.
    Regards
    Farzana.

    You want to use your flex project in a CC2014 application? If yes, you have to rewrite your complete project to a HTML5 extension as Flex support was dropped in CC2014 (and all upcoming releases).
    "Flash/Flex/AIR extensions run in APE (Adobe Player for Embedded). This product is deprecated, and, as stated above, will be removed from Creative Cloud products, starting in the middle of 2014. This means that developers must migrate their extensions to HTML5 if they want to continue to support them in Creative Cloud (CC) applications. Flash-based extensions will continue to run as before in versions CS5.x and CS6 of their host applications."

  • Problem with "Building interactive maps with Flex" example

    I have been looking at the tutorial by Matt Sheehan Building interactive maps with Flex found at
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/interactive_maps.edu.html
    I have downloaded  Flash Builder 4.6 trial version and followed the example. I have also copied the source code from the example and pasted that into the file mymodestmap.mxml.
    In both cases the application opens a new page in Google Chrome but does not display any map data.
    No errors or warnings are displayed when I run the code from Flash Builder.
    Although I have got plenty of experience of writing software, I am a total beginner when it comes to developing web applications!
    Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong, I have attached the source below.

    Technically, it's Javascript, not Java :) TOTALLY different beasts. I wish they'd never named it Javascript, it's ambiguous. So anyway, on to the point of the whole thing...
    If you want quotes in your values, you'll need to write a function to replace " with \", and pass the values through it. So instead of javascript:passBack('#ENAME#','#JOB#','#SAL#'); you would have javascript:passBack(addslashes('#ENAME#'),addslashes('#JOB#'),addslashes('#SAL#'));. That would mean that ABC"DEF"GH would be passed to the function as ABC\"DEF\"GH and your quotes would stay intact. Search around on the internet for more specifics as to how to pass double quotes in javascript by using backslashes.

    1)Java is backward-compatable, so almost anything that used to work should still work

  • AIR application with Flex 4.5 will not render content. What gives?

    OK,
    So I've upgraded to Flash Builder 4.5 Premium and I am unable to develop desktop AIR applications with the 4.5 Flex SDK. I start by simply creating a brand new AIR application using the default SDK (Flex 4.5). I set the title property on WindowedApplication and include a simple Label component. The project compiles fine but when I run the application all I see is the adl window in the dock but that's it. If I modify the Main-app.xml file to set the visible attribute to true, I will get a small window but there is no content although the output window shows the application swf being loaded. Checking the release version of the Main-app.xml file shows the correct path location to the swf.
    Here is what I've tried so far:
    Install/reinstall Flash Builder, 4+ times
    Downloaded the trial installation twice
    Downloaded the SDK's for 3.6, 4.1 and 4.5.0. I then copied each SDK folder and merged the AIR 2.6 SDK with each copy. So now I have 6 SDK versions; one pristine and the other with the AIR 2.6 SDK merged. I then added each SDK individually and created an AIR desktop application for each. Each and every one works fine with the exception of the two 4.5 SDK's. They will not render content.
    I created a simple creation complete handler for the application that declares a simple variable and assigns a value to it. I then put a break point on the assignment and it never gets caught. More evidence that the swf isn't getting loaded.
    The computer I'm running on is a Mac Book Pro with Snow Leopard 10.6.7. If I create a web project in each of the 6 SDK's, those will work just fine. What the heck is it with Flex 4.5 and the AIR 2.6 SDK on this machine? I have the AIR 2.6 runtime installed as well as a number of AIR applications that work just fine. I also tried my 4.5 test on my windows machine and that worked like a champ.
    I am completely out of ideas. Finding information has been difficult because everyone is all about mobile so searching for desktop issues is a losing battle. I realize this is a long email but I'm desperate for help. There must be someone out there that knows more about the low level interaction between Flex 4.5/AIR 2.6 and the OS.

    Well, I finally found the issue, a corrupted mm.cfg file in /Library/Application Support/Macromedia. I deleted the file and then adl ran just fine.

  • Debug the Flex Application with tomcat Server

    Hi,
    I have the adobe flex builder plugin with my eclipse and I created a Flex project which is running on my Tomcat Server. Now, I would like to run my application in debug mode and I could not see the debug perspective. But, if my application is not configured with tomcat server, I can the debug perspective in my eclipse.
    Do we need to do any additional settings for viewing the debug perspective for Flex Applications which is configured in tomcat Server?

    You can't debug an app on the server, at least not using the debug perspective. Troubleshooting deployed apps if far more difficult.

  • Can i build an application with Labview 2009 for Windows 7?

    Hello
    i use Labview 2009 SP1 and the application builder 2009 SP1. If i install the application on win7 this message is display:
    Labview Run Time Engine depends on pruduct with upgrade code (...) version 9.0.301, language {} which is not in distribution.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Is this an issue with Windows 7 having both installation folders for 32 bit (C:\Program Files (x86)) and 64 bit (C:\Program Files)?
    I had an application built on an XP machine and installed on a Windows 7 machine which was looking for files in C:\Program Files when they were actually installed in C:\Program Files (x86) - because it was 32-bit application.  After installation I had to move the files from 1 location to the other to make it work.

  • How do I install and build and extension with extension builder 2.1?

    Honestly, I am beyond frustrated right now.
    1. Extension Builder 3 - This will only install and run with Eclipse. JRE 1.7.
    This only allows me to use Extendscript to write scripts with. Extendscript is so frustrating to use. It seems like there are a lot of missing properties for working with color models in illustrator. The documentation is also terrible for Extendscript. Something that seems like it would be simple to do like export an RGB JPEG is impossible to spec out in the EXPORT JPEG settings. Its also impossible to set the color space of a NEW AI document unless you use the add(); instead of addDocument(); There are conflicting incomplete properties of both methods. If you use one, one set of settings is missing if you use the other another set is missing... WHAT IS SOMEONE SUPPOSED TO DO???
    2. Flash Builder 4.7 will not run Extension Builder 3.
    3. I bought Extension Builder 2.1 which is supposed to install Flash Builder 4.6, but the installation keeps failing right at the end. This apparently also requires that you use JRE 1.6 which is not compatible with Mavericks.
    This all seems impossible... how in the heck are people learning how to do build extensions, its a surprise that any exist at all. If they do They are likely not building them with the Adobe tools. I know enough about code to be dangerous but don't have a doctorate in troubleshooting all of these compatibility, and documentation issues.
    All I want to do is write an extension, or a script that allows me to
    1. copy the art from two layers.
    2. color the background of the AI document to the background color of the original document
    3. resize art from both layers to fit on a 216 x 216 pixel square.
    4. Save the document as a: JPEG - ANTI-ALIAS SUPER SAMPLED - 150 DPI - RGB - MEDIUM QUALITY - CLIP TO ARTBOARD - WITH THE SAME NAME AS THE ORIGINAL FILE
    I AM AT MY WITS END WITH THIS WHOLE PROCESS. I AM ABOUT TO GIVE UP UNLESS SOMEONE CAN HELP GIVE ME A LITTLE INSIGHT.

    Hi,
    First of all, remember that Extension Builder 2.1 only supports building Flash based extensions which have been phased out. If you are building extensions for Creative Cloud and beyond, you should use HTML5. See more info here: Introducing HTML5 extensions | Adobe Developer Connection
    The installation is probably failing because you have some leftovers from a previous installation. The installer will detect if you have Flash Builder 4.5 or Flash Builder 4.6 installed (NOT Flash Builder 4.7). If it finds that you have Flash Builder 4.5/4.6 installed, it will attempt to install the plugin on top of it. If it does not detect Flash Builder 4.5/4.6, it will install Flash Builder 4.6 Premium.
    I highly recommend you look into the new HTML5 extensibility. Here you can find tons of resources: Adobe CEP Resources by Adobe-CEP
