Flex Builder 3 - Export Release Build Feature

Just bought the Flex Builder 3 prof version and imported my
project from Flex Builder 2 to 3. All compiled OK and I see all
.html wrappers and swf (debug and release versions) in the bin
folder. However when I run the "Export Release Build Feature" only
index.swf (my main application file) along with its wrapper
index.html and my images directory gets copied to "bin-release"
folder. Not sure why remaining.swf files corresponding to the .mxml
files are not copied. Do I need to copy these manually???
Appreciate any help with this.
Thanks in advance.

The problem is that:
all the images do not appear in the "Select the output files to include in the exported AIR or AIRI file" section of the Export Release Build. I see only 30 files with the rest of the files missing.
As a work around, what I did is manually copy all the resources/images from bin-debug to bin-release directory and then make the export release build. In this air package after installation, I see now all the images.
so, the original problem with flex builder not being able to include all the images in release build still persists.
thanks,
Sunil

Flash Builder Export Release Build Fails

I'm having an issue when trying to export the release build of my AIR application in Flash Builder 4.5. After choosing the key to sign the package and clicking finish to complete the export, it errors saying that "Error occurred while saving the project settings: "default" build target cannot be found for the selected project." I've included the error message output to the log in the .metadata folder. Any help would be great as this is baffling to me.

Take a look at .actionScriptProperties file, there is <buildTargets/> tag. Ideally it should look something similar to
<buildTargets>
    <buildTarget buildTargetName="default">
      <airSettings airCertificatePath="" airTimestamp="true" anePathSet="false" version="1">
        <airExcludes/>
        <anePaths/>
      </airSettings>
      <actionScriptSettings version="1"/>
    </buildTarget>
</buildTargets>
Changing this when FB is open wouldn't help. You would need update the file, while project is closed or flash builder is closed.

Flash Builder export release build fails with lot of assets

I'm having troubles when building for release and when running with "standard" packaging. It just hangs without having a error notification or so.
The project I'm packaging has a lot of assets, like 150 MB. When trying to package with the "fast" packaging option, it is working realy good!
I tried to increase the vm arguments in the .ini settings file, but without succes.
Do you have any suggestion?

Hi Sanjay,
Thanks for the quick reply! Hereby the extra info:
1. -Xmx2048m
2. We are using ATF files with all three textures included (around 14 MB for @2x and 8 MB for @1x). We could exclude the DXT and ETC ones, but than we need to create them for all separately. Thereby we are not done with the project so the size will still increase, than it is a solution for a short time.
3. I just tried with the following results:
At the beginning it is giving some warnings:
Exception in thread "main" com.adobe.air.ipa.ProcessError: Assembler failed

My application contains too much private data, I can't attach it. Just several notes about my problem:
1. It's not reproducible in the Flash Builder 4.6 on OSX 10.6.8
2. It's reproducible with ant build script
3. Error is gone when I removed all <icon></icon> elements from descriptor file.

Export Release Build Flash Builder 4.5 fails to load over the web.

Exported Release Build Application fails to load over the web. You can reproduce using the following steps:
1. Create New Flex Project in Trial Flash Builder 4.5.
2. Use the default Flex 4.5 sdk.
3. Configure as a web application.
3. Place the following MXML code in the main application file:
<?xml version = "1.0" encoding = "utf-8"?>
<s:Application xmlns:fx = "http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
xmlns:s = "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
xmlns:mx = "library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
minWidth = "955"
minHeight = "600">
<fx:Declarations>

</fx:Declarations>
<s:TextArea text = "Hello World!" width = "100%" height = "100%">
</s:TextArea>
</s:Application>
3. Save the main application file and Export Release Build to bin-release.
4. Place all files in bin-release on IIS web server in a web accessible location.
5. Go to the web accessible location in any browser with newest flash player and view the application's html page.
Actual Results:
Flash movie appears blank. Context menu shows Movie Not Loaded. Network traffic shows application main swf downloaded. Framework dependent swfs not downloaded.
Expected Results:
Movie loads. Hello World! appears in text box. Context menu does not show Movie Not Loaded. Framework dependent swfs downloaded.
Workaround (if any):
Deploy on an Apache web server.
The tests were run on IIS 7.x (7.0 for one, and 7.5)
Flex application was built using Flex 4.5.0 SDK pre-bundled release (built-in flex 4.5 with Flash Builder 4.5 trial) on Mac OS X 10.6.7 (10J869)
Flash Player 10.3.181.14
Example failing website:
http://staging.ibenergy.com/Test.html
Any idea as to why my exported release build fails? Any help would be appreciated.

Just tried this out on an IIS server with Flash player 10.3.181.14 - it worked.
Are you using the release version of Flash Builder 4.5 with the release version of Flex SDK (not a prior SDK build)?
The URL you mentioned gives me a 403 forbidden error.

The class the error message is referring to is defined with a SWC that my project links to. However, I've even tried to define a class with that same name (and location) within my project and it still fails to find it.
Why am I able to Project->Clean and run this project within the desktop AIR player (or on the device in debug mode) but unable to export it as a release build?
I have found a couple of threads mentioning a similar error but none of them have been marked as resolved.

At this point I feel I am talking to myself, but I will share my work-around in case it helps another who may stumble across this post.
In my particular case, both my main AIR application and my ANE wrapper library were referencing the same external Flex library (same revision). Both projects had the library linkage set to merge. Changing the linkage to "External" on one of the 2 libraries (it doesn't seem to matter which) and leaving the other as "Merged into code" enabled the export to complete without the bizarre "Unable to find named traits" error.

Flash Builder + WTP = "Export Release Build" Broken

If I create a combined Flex/Java project and then click the "Export Release Build..." menu, then nothing appears to happen. If I just create a plain Flex project, then it works just fine.
I used the Eclipse Plug-in installer 4.0.1 (build 277662) for Windows XP SP3.
I am running the bundled 3.4.2 version of Eclpse and installed Subclipse and the WTP plugin.
I eventually looked through the Eclipse workspace log file and found the following stack trace. If anyone can offer me any suggestions on how to get this working I would appreciate it.

Hi
I was able to reproduce this issue with Eclipse 3.6 and burrito build.
When I create a flex/java project I am not able to export the release build and the null pointer exception occurs.
But when I create the flex/java project with remote object service as LCDS export worked fine.
Also export of normal project is worked fine. I raised a bug http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-29046 for the same
I am attaching the logs here

Export Release Build on Flash Builder 4 Beta 2

Hi Everyone,
I have a Flex 4 project that is organized as a main app project with several related projects that are linked in, along with several libraries that get included (I use granite dataservice and tweener, among others). The project runs fine when I do a normal build, I have deployed the resulting swf independently on a web server and its working fine.
Now, whenever I try to do 'Export release build' from the Project menu, the resulting release build doesnt run at all, and it crashes with weird errors, like for example, it first crashes because of a null reference in the partAdded method in one of the components I created, when I removed that component completely it crashed because of a type coercion error on one of the data service objects, and this goes on with all sorts of errors that never existed in the normal 'debug' version not built with the export option.
So I have two questions:
Does anyone have any clue what might be wrong? I would have posted examples but it looks to me like an application-wide anomaly, maybe because of it not loading the libraries or the resources correctly? I tried both build path options or merging sdk libraries into the code or using runtime libraries, didnt work, not sure if it is related.
What exactly does 'Export release build' add for me? is the release build faster than the normal one?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
A release build optimises the compile,(no debugging code etc). The swf will be a little quicker and a lot smaller. If you are getting null pointers and data service issues maybe something in your create order is a bit out. If you have an idea of what the offending component may be see if you can set its creation policy. This would be my first thought the other could possibly be some sort of local versus network issue on the release build.
David.

Export Release Build/Standard Edition

Hi-
Is the Export Release Build feature available in Flash Builder 4 - Standard Edition?
Thanks,
Dave

Hi Jason
I see it in the trail. The trial is the Premier edition though.
I plan to buy the Standard edition and want to make sure that feature is in that version.

Export Release Build

When I export release build in FB 3, if I leave "Enable view
source" unchecked, I get the error message:
quote:
Flex Builder could not publish the project source: the
application file "Main.mxml" was not found.
I click OK, and the project exports just fine. I shouldn't
get this error if I don't enable source view, right?

After trying for ages just created a new flex project and
copied all the code across to the new project. But didn't use the
old app-xml file used the one for the new flex project and the
icons worked.

Can't Export Release Build for AIR app...

Flash Builder 4.7 won't let me export a release build for any AIR apps at all...
It started when I wanted to make some changes to an old AIR app. Couldn't even run it in the debugger, so I updated the AIR SDK (using instructions found here: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-builder/kb/overlay-air-sdk-flash-builder.html and here: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/how-overlay-air-sdk-flex-sdk.html )
So after doing all that, and making some other changes, I finally got my AIR app to run in the debugger in Flash Builder 4.7. Made the changes I wanted to make, then tried to Export Release Build... Kept giving me a "Password Incorrect for this certificate" error whenever I tried it -- but it would never let me enter a password. I went to Project | Export Release Build, and on the first screen there, I would click "Next" and it would jump straight to compiling, skipping over the screen where you're supposed to be able to enter the certificate info and password.
Figured maybe because it was an old AIR project, that was causing the problem. So I started a brand new AIR project -- very simple one with just a <s:Label> inside a <s:WindowedApplication>. Went to Project | Properties | Flash Builder Packaging and created a brand-new self-signed certificate (which seemed to work) but again upon trying to export the release build, it wouldn't let me get to the screen where you enter the password. Clicking "Next" from the first screen on Project | Export Release Build just jumps straight to compiling and (of course) it gives me the Incorrect Password error, because it never gave me a chance to enter the password.
So what is going on here? Why can I not export any release builds for any AIR projects? This is extremely frustrating -- Flash Builder 4.6 never gave me these kinds of problems. What can I do to fix Flash Builder 4.7 so it will work properly with AIR projects?
Thanks,
L.

Hi,
I think something's wrong with either your FB 4.7 installation, or how you updated the AIR SDK. I just walked through the exact steps you listed (except I already had the AIR SDK overlayed) and I can build a desktop AIR app without issue. I get prompted for the password and everything.
I wish I had a better answer, but I'd suggest uninstalling and re-installing FB 4.7, be sure to remove preferences as well. Then before you update the AIR SDK, try building an AIR app with the base SDK that's included in 4.7. If you can get it to compile and prompt you for the password, then it's the way you overlayed the SDK that's messed something up.
Make sure you download the correct AIR SDK that's specific to Flex. On this download page: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air-sdk-download.html is a reference in small print that says: Note : Flex users will need to download the original AIR SDK without the new compiler. Mac Windows. Make sure it's that version of the SDK (without the ASC 2.0 compiler). Then try overlaying the SDK again and see if that works.
I can definitely confirm that what you are experiencing isn't the norm, and that you can get the latest AIR SDK to work with FB 4.7
Good luck!

Export Release Build for datagrid [xml file doesnt show?]

SRC folder
          assets
                    icons
          db.xml (located within assets folder)
datagrid.mxml
default.css
I am able to load the database and it populates my "db.xml" with no issues, however when I export release build and run the app - the database displays but with no information? I noticed that the my "db.xml" was not exported as well.
It is set up correctly? or do I need to just drop my icons, db.xml within src folder and not seperate them?
thanks

When you export a release build, it takes all your MXML And ActionSCript files and turns them into a SWF without the extra debugging code. If you are not embedding the XML in the swf, then this is expected behavior.
In your project properties, under Flex Compiler you can try checking the "copy non-embedded files to output folder"; but I believe this is only for debugging purposes and not for exporting a release build.

Missing mxml:html/swf in Export Release Build

Hi,
I am using Flex 3 and have created several projects of which two have dropped the login.mxml (resulting html and swf) files when I export release build and publish it to my web server. I have compared settings in the projects where this does not happen and I can't find a reason for this behaviour. Its very annoying as I have to remember to manually copy the files from the flex_bin manually over. Anyone else encounter this or know why it might be happening?
