Eclipse 3.2 / Flex builder and Leopard

Anyone know if Eclipse 3.2 (not the latest one since it
doesnt support flex builder 2) and Flex builder 2 will work on
Leopard?

Can you ensure that the SWF your are debugging is a release SWF?
I've recently fixed a bug (which is not publicly available) where the same stacktrace was visible:
A release SWF loads a debug SWF via SWFLoader/ModuleLoader, etc.
Making sure the main container SWF is a debug one. That should fix this problem.
(You can check whether a SWF is debug or not by opening it in nemo440 (google for that) and looking for debugfile / debugline opcodes.)
Let me know how it works out.
Cheers,
Anirudh

Flex builder and snow leopard problems

Since upgrading to Mac OS X 10.6, Flex Builder is functioning extremely poorly. The worst issue is that I am experiencing extreme slowness when typing code. I type a few letters and then have to wait a few seconds for my text to fully appear. The is happening in both Flash Builder beta and Flex Builder 3. There are also some other quirks--the column down the left side of the editor, where line numbers appear, periodically stops updating so that error and debug markers never disappear until I restart Eclipse.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can at least fix the text issue?

Wow, you're completely right. I hadn't noticed the second monitor issue until just now because Flex/Flash Builder is almost always on the second. Line numbers scroll just fine on my primary monitor.
Also, has anyone noticed a crazy amount of CPU usage when Flex/Flash Builder is Building the workspace or launching the application? When I look at the processes in Activity Monitor, a process called "fontd" uses ~95%. I've done some searching and all I can find is it has something to do with system fonts. Most people recommend clearing your font caches by booting into Safe Mode and/or using Font Book to resolve any duplicate fonts. I've tried both multiple times, yet the problem is still there. Any ideas?

Widget creation on Flex builder and related problems - need some help

Hi all.
I am trying to create a widget like application and it seems
I have made a mistake. As you know, desktop widgets are like small
stickers, they do not appear on taskbar and can be hidden or
docked.
The problem is that I created an AIR application using Flex
Builder 3 Beta and now I cannot find how to make that application
behave like custom-shaped window. My app appears on Windows taskbar
and I don't want it. When I drag the window (which is a custom
shape) it shows that nasty dragging rectangle around it.
As far as I found out (and tried it) I need to use cod like:
var initOptions:NativeWindowInitOptions = new
NativeWindowInitOptions();
initOptions.systemChrome = NativeWindowSystemChrome.NONE;
initOptions.type = NativeWindowType.UTILITY;
to hide my window from the taskbar. But it seems I cannot use
such a code for class mx:Application. Or can I (would be grateful
for some idea)?
The main question is:
if I want to migrate my app to that NativeWindow based
solution - then NativeWindow is not an mx class and I cannot find
how I will use Flex Builder Design mode to arrange my GUI elements.
Is it somehow possible to wrap my mx:Application inside
NativeWindow and do not have to migrate the design from mxml files
to pure ActionScript?
The second issue - if I want to use some kind of subforms -
like widget settings window - when I move that window with the
mouse, it is being clipped to the region of my Application. Does
that again mean that I need to use NativeWindow for creating such a
"Widget settings" dialog window?
Thanks for any ideas (and especially for useful links and
examples :-) )

Can't install Flex Builder 2 plugin in Eclipse 3.3/Europa

[I hope Adobe reads these forums. I tried to submit this as a
customer service request, but the customer service request form
kept telling my I had to enter my First Name, Last Name, and Email
address, even though I _had_ entered them!]
I can't seem to install the Flex Builder 2 plugin in Eclipse
3.3/Europa. I had it installed fine in 3.2/Callisto. I uninstalled
it from there, installed Europa, then tried to install the plugin.
After I selected the Eclipse folder, I got the error:
"Please choose an existing Eclipse folder (3.1 or greater) to
be updated. This folder must contain eclipse.exe and the standard
folder named "configuration"."
All three conditions (3.1 or greater, eclipse.exe and
configuration) hold in my case, so I don't know what the real
problem is.

Actually it's quite simple. But you have to be warned. This
doesn't guarantee a bug free Eclipse setup and it isn't supported
by Adobe in any way. It is how-ever your only shot at getting
Eclipse with Flex Builder 2 AND php-development support, as Zend
has stopped deploying the php-development-requirement for Eclipse
3.2 (or at least I haven't found it in their archives.)
Flex Builder 2 simply checks for some files to see if the
directory you want to install to exist, so it recognizes the
directory as an Eclipse 3.1+ directory. Eclipse 3.3 however misses
the file startup.jar. If you simply copy startup.jar from an
Eclipse 3.2 directory into the 3.3 directory, Flex Builder 2 will
install in the 3.3 directory.
Again. This is not supported in any way by Adobe.
For more info, Google on: eclipse-3.3 Flex-builder-2
startup.jar
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=eclipse-3.3+Flex-builder-2+startup.jar
Kind regards.
PS. I would still like to have an Adobe Representative answer
the simple question: Is Adobe or is Adobe not working on getting
Flex Builder 2 to work on Eclipse 3.3? A simple yes or no will
suffice.

Flex 3 and Java - Integrated Development on Eclipse

I am new to flex as well as to eclipse. I have downloaded
Adobe Flex Builder 3.0 and installed it. I want to use java at the
back-end, but I don't have Java perspective option in eclipse.
Therefore, I am currently using 2 IDE(s), one is
flex-builder, and other is Eclipse for Web tool platform
(eclipse-jee-europa-winter-win32.zip).
Is there anyway that I can benefit integrated development of
Flex and java using same IDE?

I wouldn't try it really... it's not worth the issues you'd
probably run into and the work of getting it setup, if it's even
possible. I just run Eclipse and FB separate. If you have a gig of
ram you should be fine doing this I think.
If you *really* want to get rid of one, you can use the Flex
plugin for Eclipse, but I've heard people complain about it not
playing nice with Java.

Eclipse + Flex Builder Plugin + RDS

Hi All,
I've got a strange problem with Eclipse and the Flex Builder
and RDS plugins. I configure the RDS connection in
Window->Preferences->RDS Settings however when I Test the
connection I keep getting the error message "Unable to contact RDS
server 'localhost'". I have the settings configured exactly the
same as they are in HomeSite+. HomeSite+ can connect fine, but
Eclipse cannot!
Has anyone come across this issue or knows of a workaround?
Do I have to install something in a particular order?
Thanks for any help.

Could you please let me know the CF version, install
configuration and OS? CF versions 6.1 and prior are not supported
by the RDS plugin.
We had a similar issue in beta 1 that got fixed and it was
related to the password. If the CF version is not the problem,
please email me your RDS password directly at [email protected] I
know you tried using no password - did you mean the server admin
password or the RDS password (you cannot have a blank RDS
password)?
The order of installing plugins doesn't make a difference.
Thanks,
Farah

How to use Flex builder with blazeds and JBoss

Following the instructions it is pretty easy to set up a project to work with the turnkey tomcat. However, I am having problems with JBoss because the app has to be deployed as a .war file. I can create a war file manually and depoly it no problem. How do I get flex builder to deploy to a war file? I want to be able to debug in flex builder and run at the click of a button.

Hi, I am trying to configure BlazeDS with JBOSS Application Server. I have downloaded BlazeDS binary version - blazeds_bin_3-0-0-544.zip from Adobe. But in the installation steps, it says that copy blazeds.war, samples.war and console.war into <JBOSS_HOME>/server/default/deploy folder. But in this zip, it contains only blazeds.war file only. I have copied it to <JBOSS_HOME>/server/default/deploy folder. I have restarted JBoss. I didn't get any error. But when i give http://localhost:8080/blazeds ... i am always getting "Page not found 404" error. Please help me, if you have detailed steps to configure BlazeDS on JBoss. Thanks for your time.

Flex Builder 3 new j2ee project using LDS

Hello
I am using Eclipse Europa With flex builder v3 beta 2. My
application server is apache geronimo v2.
When i deploy my ear file into geronimo i recieve an
exception: org.apache.geronimo.common.DeploymentException: Could
not parse TLD file at file in /WEB-INF/lib/flex-bootstrap-jsp.jar.
This is a flex jar. it is caused by caused by
org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.piccolo.io.IllegalCharException: Illegal
XML character: 0x3
Can any one help me . as i have tried to view this file and i
have found no illegal character.
I think this might be an issue with geronimo . but does Flex
support geronimo.
Thnks in advance for any help

I'd love to help because I know how frustrating it is to get
it working. Unfortunately, I run CF locally and IIS as the web
server. However, maybe my settings will spark something that you
can use:
1
2. myFirstFlex
3. C:\Documents and Settings\[useraccount]My
Documents\myFirstFlex
4. Web application/
5. Coldfusion/ColdFusion Remoting
6. Standalone
7. c:\coldfusion8
8. c:\inetpub\wwwroot
9.
http://localhost/
is what works for me

Flex Builder vs. Mountain Lion

I use Flex Builder 3 on Mountain Lion OS. I can not run my application in builder. I press the run button, but nothing happens. (Under Lion it is okay). Someone's idea?

Huge differences! Two different tools, for two very different
jobs. Flex
Builder is built on the Eclipse platform and there fore can
be used to
design web sites - in code view, and with CF Eclipse, can be
used to develop
ColdFusion app quite nicely, but it is in no way a visual
development tool
like Dreamweaver. I'd encourage you to go to Adobe Labs and
download the
Flex Builder Beta 2 and dive in. There's a good chance you'll
want both
tools in your "tool box".

Can I re-install Flex Builder trial after 60 days again?

As far as I understand Flex Builder trial version stops working after 60 days.
Can I after the 60 days uninstall Flex Builder and re-install it again with 60 more days or does Flex Builder somewhere
(e.g. in Registry ) set a flag that Flex Builder was already installed?
In other words do the 60 days count per installation or per computer?
Peter

No.
But if you are a student you can receive Flex Builder for free (google it).
And of course you can use Flex SDK absolutely free with Eclipse (except Flex Data Visualisation components - AdvancedDataGrid, Charts).

How can I create an executable with Flex Builder 3?

I'm working with Flex Builder 3 right now and I've run my
head into a brick wall. Here's the situation:
I'm creating a standalone application (runs in its own
window, not in a web page) and I want to run it on a computer that
does not have Flex Builder 3 installed. Help files and web searches
haven't directed me to the right answer, so I was hoping that
someone on this forum could help. Anyone know how to create a .exe
file or something else that can be run outside of Flex Builder?
Thanks a lot for any help!

Thanks Rob,
This may be what I'm looking for, but I don't know enough
about the difference. I guess I should have pointed out that I'm a
complete Flex Novice!
Anyway, with Flex Builder, I created an MXML Application. I
went through all my various options again in Flex Builder and found
that under the project menu, I could export a release build in what
appears to be the format you mentioned. I managed to create a .air
file, but it is not a recognized file type on my computer. I tried
double clicking it and the built-in windows services couldn't even
find a possible way to run it. Am I missing some important step?
Thanks again.

How to compile flex builder project from flex sdk?
