Install Flex 2 on Eclipse

I have Eclipse 3.3.1.1 and Flex SDK 2.0.1
How do I import the SDK into Eclipse?
Instructions are vague.

Generally you would install the FlexBuilder plugin, which
installs the entire dev environment for you. I've never used just
the SDK alone.

Installing Flex 4 SDK on Eclipse IDE

Hi,
I want to use Eclipse IDE with Flex 4 SDK but am unable to do so. I have looked at various blog posts & threads dealing with the same, most of them are obsolete(in the sense posted way back in 2005/07 with very old Eclipse releases) or I am not getting the desired results.
The links I have referred to are below-

http://blog.wezside.co.za/2008/01/complete-starter-guide-to-develop-flash.html
I have tried the trial of Adobe Flex Builder & it was really a painless job to get going. But right now I cannot afford a license of the same so I am looking at open source alternatives.
Can anyone help the newbies like me by giving a brief walkthrough regarding installing Flex SDK on Eclipse, it would be of great help.
Thanks in advance,
Raghav

I was disappointed with the kind of response from a forum like this to an amateur like me.
I found a way around, decided not to use Eclipse at all with Flex SDK. Instead I am using Flash Develop which is a free IDE specific for Flash & Flex and integrating Flex SDK is pretty easy in that. Provided a very good feature set for a free software. Anyone stuck with this problem I suggest to go ahead with FlashDevelop instead of trying to figure out Eclipse. It is available for download here

Flex Builder Eclipse Plugin install

I am trying to install the Flex builder eclipse plugin and
when I choose the path to eclipse, the installer gives me a warning
the root folder must contain the subfolder configuration. My path
is /Developer/Applications/eclipse. there is a subfolder
configuration. I have permission to the folders. The gui installer
under the title "Please Choose an Existing Eclipse Folder" displays
"eclipse" in the folder "Applications" on the disk "Macintosh HD".
Is the installer looking at /Application, not
/Developer/Applications?

I installed the plugin on another eclipse and copied over the
adobe com folders and jars to the features, plugins, and
configuration folders of my eclipse install

How to install Flex SDK in IBM RAD?

Hi All,
I'm new to Flex and facing some trouble in installing flex 4.6 sdk in my existing IBM RAD application.
There are few flex files that are included in the new release and I need to work on those files (test/debug) to make sure that existing application is not affected with these files.
I have installed Flash Player and latest Flash Builder 4.0 and 4.6 plugin on my system for this purpose.
The Flex SDK, however, I'm not able to configure on my RAD.
Because of this, I'm not able to see the Flex Prespectives in my RAD and mxml & as files are giving error in text editor.
Please guide -
1. How to configure the latest Flex 4.6 SDK in RAD.
2. Apart from what I have done already, do I need to do anything else to debug/test the newly added flex files in my RAD.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi,
Thanks for your great reply i greatly appreciate you efforts.
Arie the thing is that i saw the post you mentioned above and it's kind of tangled,isn't there anyway or any sourceful website for step by step guide because i already mentioned that i am a brand new c/c++ programmer and i have no experience how to do programming in c/c++ as i am android and java developer using eclipse tool so visual studio is somewhat a new world for me.
Please if you have any step by step guidence link or website in your mind,do let me know i anxiously look forward for a step by step guide,but let's say if you don't have anything i want it's perfectly fine i ll try to dig more and work and look in VS 2010 because may be i am new and that's why i can't find the SDK integration.
Once again Arie thanks for your helpful and fast reply i greatly appreciate your co-operation.
Thanks,
Brian

Help installing Flex SDK 4.1 on Flex Builder 3 properly

Flex Builder 3 comes with SDK for 2.0.1 and 3.2 by default, so I want to add Flex SDK 4.1
I downloaded it, made a directory in the Flex Builder 3 sdks folder, and unzipped the contents there.
After adding it and selecting/checking it on Flex Builder, I tried to use it by running a project I was using with 3.2 and I get the error below:
unable to open 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\sdks\4.1.0\frameworks\libs\player\9.0\playerglobal.swc'
What do I need to do or didn't do?

Hi,
You can not use SDK 4.1 in flex builder 3. You need to purchase Flash Builder 4 or use free SDK 4.1 in eclipse.

Errors when installing Flex Builder 3

I've just installed Flex Builder on my machine but
unfortunately things did not go right.
FX does not work, when I try to start a project an error
message comes on. I click on details, and the only detail I get is
"error".
I tried reinstalling but it did no good. Very frustrating.
Any hints as to what to do to try it again? Would a corrupted
file cause this kind of problem??
Thank you for any ideas.
Marcos

Thanks Levancho,
Well, here is my system info:
Pentium Dual 2 GHz
2 GB RAM
Win XP SP2
Java 6 Update 11 Standard (build 1.6.0_11-b03)
Flex Builder 3 Educational (build 3.0.2.214193)
Eclipse version: I have no idea :(
Thanks!

Extending Flex Builder - eclipse plugin

I'm trying to find out more about writing Eclipse Plugins
that extend Flex Builder.
I've taken a look at the 'Adobe Flex Builder 3 Extensibility'
section of the Flex Builder help files and didn't find them that
helpful.
For example, at the moment I'm trying to get my new Eclipse
command to call the adt binary file in the user's chosen default
Flex SDK. So some immediate questions arise:
1) Which Flex or Eclipse class contains the filesystem
reference to the user's default Flex sdk so that I can call 'adt'
with user entered parameters?
2) Are there any tutorials or resources on extending Flex
Builder with custom Eclipse plugins apart from the limited Adobe
documentation?

Jason,
Yes you still need to purchase - you can install the product
as a full install, or as an eclipse plug in. Trying the 30 day
trial for getting your feet wet is the only option currently. Take

Installing FLEX Plugin With MyEclipse Plugin

Install Europa first. Install FLEX 3.0 plugin next ang then
MyEclipse plugin. If you don't follow this order then there may be
features missing from FLEX because the when selecting the Eclipse
directory for the FLEX install, you may select the wrong target
folder as your Eclipse Root folder. I haven't done an exhastive
study on this, but just repaired an install in this manner. Many of
us Java programmers use MyEclipse because of Spring, or build
capabilities that are built into it. Hopefully, this may help
someone down the road.

Hi
Thank you for providing this workaround.

Installing Flex Builder with MyEclipse

I am trying to get Flex Builder to install a plugin for
eclipse. I have read that the installer is having an issue seeing
the configuration directory, and there is certainly something wrong
with my install. The only solution I found online says that I would
need to, FIRST install eclipse 3.3.1, SECOND install flex and THIRD
install MyEclipse.
Well, I'm more then a little disturbed by this as I've
already got my IDE setup and working just the way I want it, and
really I'm just testing the capabilities of Flex for the "powers
that be". If it is a good tool, we will use it. But if this failure
to install is a precursor of things to come I'm going to have to
shoot it down since I'm the one whose got to use it.
Any suggestions? Perhaps there is some other support for flex
as well?
Thanks,
-Robert

Read the Flex Builder release notes and installation instructions.

Is the Flex Builder Eclipse Plugin Free?

I posted this quesiton in Flex Builder 2 forum but I thought
maybe it's a bit more appropriate here. If not I apologize.
I'm a total beginner to Flex and Eclipse but I'm just curious
if the Flex Builder Eclipse Plugin is free or do I still need to
purchase the $499 license in order to use it? I'm trying to figure
out what I'm going to use to build my Flex apps and I'd like a nice
IDE like Dreamweaver or CFEclipse with the nice prompts and other
features but $499 is quite steep just to get my feet wet.

Jason,

Install flex on bea Workshop 10.1

Is there a way to install the flex plugin into standard
workshop 10.1? Or do i have to buy the bundle? I already have a
flex license and i don't have teh extra cash for the bundle.
Thanks in Advance.

Yes, you can install Flex Builder 2 into a standalone Workshop 10.
From http://edocs.bea.com/wlw/docs101/relnotes/relnotes.html ..
To install Adobe Flex Builder 2 into Workshop Studio:
* Run the Workshop Studio installer.
* After Workshop installs, click the checkbox to install Flex Builder
* When prompted to provide a path to Eclipse, use the following path to the Workshop Eclipse directory, replacing <BEA HOME> with the path you used to install Workshop Studio:
<BEA HOME> \tools\eclipse_pkgs\1.0\eclipse_3.2.2\eclipse

Installing Flex SDK into Flash Builder 4.7 problems

Hi,
Im completely new to Flash Builder, today I have installed Flash Builder 4.7 & Flash CS6 from Creative Cloud for my son to start to learn game programming (with my help), I have used simple coding in web design however this terminology is new to me.
I bought my son the latest 'Foundation Game Design with ActionScript 3.0' book on recommendation but it was written when FB was version 4.5 so im guessing this might be the problem.
The book is very easy to follow but have hit problems at the beginning of the tutorials, the book talks about Flex SDK but it seems that FB 4.7 uses AIR SDK ?
So the first project called HelloWorld, we got up to:
Got an exclamation mark which said
'The import flash.display.Sprite is not used
locally'
Continuing with the rest of the project the exclamation mark disappeared:
However on selecting run- Debug we got a blank Flash Player window ('generate HTML wrapper file' was deselected)
So either we've done something wrong, or the book and FB version are not compatible?
Any advice would be great!
Thank you
Latest ...
I thought that installing Flex SDK may solve the problem but after following instructions I have the error message, see image below. Really stumped now!

Sorry, if I went a little overboard. After re-reading your post, perhaps I should back up a little.
First, there are little things that Flash Builder (FB) will complain about. Having extra import statements in your code doesn't hurt anything. If I'm trying different solutions and then commenting out the code, the import statements will hang around, FB will complain, but just ignore it. If you see a little icon on the left edge of your code editor and its a red circle with an X in it, then that is something that will have to be fixed.
When you create an app in FB or Flash you can choose to create a web app which means it will run in a browser window. The project can optionally create an HTML wrapper, or web page that will load your app. In Flash Pro you can choose File->Publish Settings and there will be a checkbox on the left to publish a HTML wrapper. In FB, you can right click your project in the Package Explorer, select Properties at the bottom, select the ActionScript Compiler, and down at the bottom there will be a checkbox to create a HTML wrapper.
If you're just learning Flash Builder, then the FlexSDK 4.6 and the AIR SDK 3.1 that comes with it should be fine. You mentioned Apache SDK and I'd recently been working with that so I ended up getting side-tracked.
Getting an AIRSDK to work with when build ActionScript projects is easy. Just go to the adobe site, type AIR SDK in the search box, and you should find a page that will let you downloaded the latest version. There's also a page to let you download the latest AIR runtime, and if you were just going to run AIR apps and not build them, then that's all you would need. As a developer you'll want to install the runtime from the downloaded .exe file. With the SDK, after downloading it, installing it is easy. Just create a new folder an unzip the SDK into it, then place it somewhere easy to find. I put all my SDK's in their own directory right off the c: drive. So I have c:\AIRSDK_3.5.0.880 and c:\AIRSDK_3.7.0.1530. I use very descriptive folder names so I always know which SDK's I have to work from.
To use the SDK in Flash Pro select Help -> Manage AIR SDK, hit the plus button and add the folder you created. Now when you've opened a Flash project, you go to File->Publish Settings and select the combo box at the top, you'll see options like 'AIR 3.7.0.1530 for Android' in the list that reflect the SDK's you've added.
Generally with FB you'll be using a FlexSDK, or perhaps a FlexSDK overlaid with a newer version of AIRSDK. Overlaid basically means you copied the contents of the AIR SDK into the Flex Folder. The article I mentioned above will give you all the details on creating those. For instance, I downloaded the Apache Flex installer, installed it, then created an empty folder called c:\ApacheFlexSDK_4.9.1, launched the Apache installer, gave it the new empty folder I'd created, selected all the download options, and let it all download. If it launches a popup box or a security warning, you can allow it, and it will continue. Once you have the SDK and you want to use it with a project in FB, just right click the project, select Properties, selected that Compiler tab again, and up in the right corner you'll see 'Manage SDK's...'. Hit that link, add your new SDK to the list and give it a descriptive name, then selected the checkbox beside it to set it up as your default. If you do this, then all your projects set to use the default will automatically switch to it and rebuild. So if you want a project to stay with a specific SDK then select that option in your Compiler tab, and then you could use the combo box to select your new added SDK.
When I started with FB I think I spent the first 2 days going round and round with project settings and options until I got them all figured out.
When I develop, I usually have my browser open and I have bookmarks and favorites to let me quickly get to all the pages I use most often. Here are a few of them:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/index.html <---- The API reference. In the packages window check out 'Top Level' at the top and Language Elements near the bottom. I think I have this page open in one or more tabs almost every day.
