Flex builder 4.0 ( mx:Script )

Hello Gurus,
We downloaded Flex builder 4.0 trial version for 60 days to learn Flash Island on webdynpro.
Now, we are facing a small problem that <mx:Script> tag is not working. Could be a missing library file...
Please help to resolve my problem.
Regards,
Abhishek.

Hi Abhishek,
It's may not be the case of any missing file.
Flex 3 Application codes may not be getting compiled as there are some differences in tag declarations and classes.
You can test any sample application which you can easily get from Tour de Flex examples to test Flash island in WD.
Note that you also need WDIslandLibrary 'SWC' file for same version compatibility.
If you want to use your own application then refer following links which will help you to understand the transition of Flex 3 applications into Flex 4.

I hope these will help you to solve your issue.

Incresing script Time Limit in Adobe Flex Builder 2.0

Hi All,
Using a Adobe Flex Builder I am creating an application which
has lot of complex recursive sorting algorithms that take
comparitively more time and hence the overall time required to
complete the excecution of function goes beyond 60 secods after 60
secods Flash player throws an error message and terminates the
script excecution.Is there any way to increase scriptTimeLimit more
than 60 Secods.Currently I am adding scriptTimeLimit parameter in
Applicatio tag so that I am able to run my function for 60
seconds...
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="absolute" creationComplete="DoSomething()"
scriptTimeLimit="60">
Is there any way to increase tis limit to say 10 minutes?

You will not be happy to hear this, but no. As of flash
Player 8, 60 seconds is the maximum.
I have a client who is frozen at FP7 because of this stupid,
arrogant decision. I have filed enhancement requests on this to no
avail.
People will blather on about how longer times result in a
"bad experience" for the user, but this is again arrogant for them
to believe they have any clue what MY application does and what
users will accept.
What if Flex Builder bombed out any time a compile took
longer than 60 seconds? What kind of "experience" would that be?
Because of this idiotic limitation, I am going to have to
move my recursive processing to the server. But this will take
about 6 weeks, and I have yet to find the "spare" time, or to find
someone to pay for it.
Grrrr.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

Flash CS3 fl.* package cannot be used in Flex Builder 3

Hi,
I was very disappointed to find out that one cannot import
the fl.* package, which is available for flash CS3. I found a work
around by creating swc file and importing them, however it's
disappointing that flash CS3 would have such a major advantage over
Flex Builder 3 when building an Action Script 3.0 Application.
Best, E

I've looked over that sample.
Part of the problem is that I don't have access to
mx.effects. I think this is because that example is a Flex 3
Project and has a MXML file attributed to it. I opened a Flex 3
project and was able to access mx.effects - but my project is
different in that it's an ActionScript project - meaning, I opened
an ActionScript project in Flex Builder 3. Apperantly the
ActionScript projects don't have access to mx.effects.Tween. And
niether do they have access to fl.transitions.Tween. It's strange -
and I'm trying to find a way to access them by connecting the build
path to the Tween classes somehow.
My project preferences already have the fl.* folders in the
build path. It just still doesn't seem to work.

Internal Server Error When Trying to Open Flex Builder Tutorials

Anyone know what I need to set up to run the tutorials in
Flex Builder - get an internal error server (500) when trying to
open up the tutorials listed on the start page.
I can open, compile and run projects .
Thanks

well thats a real vague error that IIS can spit out and it
could mean anything. If you are using a server side script in
conjunction with the tutorials for some reason that i would start
by commenting it all out. If you are just getting that error when
just trying to access a static html file that resides whithin your
web root then i would open up IIS and check you permisions under
your default web site for that folder.

Custom Components and Properties in Flex Builder Design View

How do I create a custom component with custom properties
that renders well in Flex Builder design view?
This is a simple HelloWorld example of what I am trying
below. Here is the HelloWorld.mxml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
width="500" height="500">
<mx:Script><![CDATA[
[Bindable]
public var message:String;
]]></mx:Script>
<mx:Label x="100" y="100" text="{message}" />
</mx:Canvas>
And then when I use it in another mxml file, the design view
does not show the label with the 'Hello World' value - instead it
just shows {message} in design view where the label is located.
When I run it as a compiled app in flash, the 'Hello World' is
displayed correctly:
-- HelloWorldTest.mxml --
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
xmlns:views="mypackage.*" width="500" height="500">
<views:SimpleLine message="Hello World."/>
</mx:Canvas>

design view does not do any variable assignments or function
evaluations, so you won't be able to see it even if you don't use a
custom component.

Flex Builder 4.5 Premium license not working for automation - anything else to try?

So I'm getting the message when I try to record/run a test that the "License not present. With the trial verison only limited replays are allowed." I have a valid license key for Flash Builder 4.5 premium edition. I have read many forums on this subject but none of them help me. I compile my project either using Flash Builder 4.5 or an ant script invoking mxmlc. I have modified my flex-config.xml to include "flashbuilder45", and my given serial number with and without dashes (and other combinations). I do not have a license.properties file. I'm not sure what else I can do. I have already reinstalled Flash Builder 4.5. I am now trying Flash Builder 4.6 with the same results. This serial number is a group one good for 5 boxes. My next step is to request a replacement serial number from Adobe, since I can't think of anything else that could be wrong with my setup.

1. It is a premium which I can see when I view "My Products" on this adobe site. I can enable Network monitor and when I do my application hangs (I've read a bit on how to get this working properly, but I don't need it)
2. It is an FB serial number. Here is what it is under My Products:
Serial Number: XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX
Application or font: Flash Builder Prem
Version: 4.5
Platform: Multiple Platforms
Date: June 7, 2011
3. Yes I have. I have uncommented
<licenses>
      <license>
         <product>product</product>
         <serial-number>serial-num</serial-number>
      </license>
   </licenses>
which sits one level down within <flex-config/>
Under product I have tried "flashbuilder45", "flashbuilder4", "flashbuilder46", and even "flexbuilderXX" a few times. Under my serial number I have entered the serial number as shown in My Products - I have tried tried it with dashes, and without.
I found this post
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6993096/how-to-properly-define-the-flashbuilder-4-5-pre mium-license-for-a-maven-flexmojo
which says "the serial-number element is NOT the license number that we got from Adobe (and that we use when installing the Flash Builder tooling) but it is a derived form of that license number that can be found for example in the license.properties file of a developer that has Flash Builder installed". However I have read conflicting reports about this. At any rate I do not have a license.properties file, which I assume was discounted after flex builder 3.x.
4. Yes, using FlashBuilder and my ant script. I have also cleaned my browser's cache. The problem persists.

License not present. With the trial version only limited replays are allowed -- Flex builder 4.5 Premium eclipse plugin with SDK 3.5

Hi ,
We are using Flex SDK 3.5 and using eclipse to build the war in order to make it automation compatible , Right now we tried with Premium version of Flex Builder 4.5 eclipse plugging to build and make application automation capable. But we are facing issues in terms of license , After deploying the automation compatible build we are getting error message "License not present. With the trial version only limited replays are allowed".
Previously we are using Flex Builder 4.0 and everything was working fine .
Is Flex Builder 4.5 doesn't support SDK 3.5 ?
Please help .
Thanks in advance
Thanks and Regards
Sunil Kumar

with trial version (FB basic) you can record/replay only 30
script lines. You need to buy FB pro license to remove this
restriction

Flex builder 3 - clean build

I am having problems with Flex builder 3 not building
correctly.
It does incremental builds - to reduce compilation time on
individual changes I assume - but quite often gets it wrong and
produces a whole stack of invalid errors.
I've tried the build clean function but that doesn't seem to
actually perform a full build clean. It only resolves these issues
some of the time. I can mess around with the code - deleting and
then un-deleting lines that are throwing up errors, or sometimes
renaming the main style sheet - which usually fixes it. But this is
a constant drain on my productivity and sometimes no amount of
messing around will help. In those cases only exporting the entire
code base and creating a new project resolves the issue. (I would
guess because this forces a completely clean build)
Does anyone know of a way to either eliminate this problem
alltogether or failing that perform a full clean build through the
builder.
I'm guessing a customised any build script may be the
solution, but I've never created one of these.

jfb, I tried all that but to no avail.
Devtron, am not using SVN ! I'm using the Flex Builder standalone version.
Thanks guys for your replies. I just ran out of patience and just started working with FB4 and all is going great !
Thanks again

Flash CS3 vs. Flex Builder 2

Here's the $64,000 question: should we be developing in Flash
CS3 or should we shift over to Flex Builder 2? I maintain that AS
3.0 is a pain in the proverbial, but I've been researching and
finding as much help as possible online about it, and I've found
that by and large people are using Flex Builder 2 as the basis of
tutorials about AS 3.0. Does anyone have an official slant on this
question? Should we abandon Flash for Flex? Will it help? Will it
mitigate the difficulties non-programmers are experiencing with AS
3.0 - or as I call it simply ***? Would I be getting more responses
to my *** questions if I post them over in the *** forum under Flex
Builder?
Any thoughts on this matter would be most welcome, thank
you.

Beatie3,

I don't know that I'd call it a luxury, really. Work is
work. ;) As
you might imagine, though, Flex Builder 2 provides a number
of scripting
improvements over the Actions panel (there's really no
comparison; if you've
tried them both, the Actions panel barely feels useful) and
the Flex
framework offers significantly more UI Components. Ideally,
if the pocket
book allows it, using both applications is the killer setup.

When you say imported, you mean dynamically loaded (loaded
at runtime),
right? Otherwise, I'm confused. The Flash IDE itself allows
you to
determine the quality of imported JPGs. In ActionScript 3.0
... are you
talking about the Stage.quality property?

Not sure what might be tripping you up, actually. The
coordinate grid
is the same. Horizontally, higher numbers move toward the
right;
vertically, higher numbers move toward the bottom. That's the
same as it's
been.

Having heard what you're after, I just started a quick
experiment from
scratch. Here's my version, below. Note: I've made no effort
to optimize
my code. This is just a first draft to achieve a blue line
segment with
green dots on each end that becomes a black line segment when
the mouse
lifts.
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
var canvas:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(canvas);
canvas.stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,
mouseDownHandler);
canvas.stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,
mouseUpHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
startX = mouseX;
startY = mouseY;
var dot:Sprite = new Sprite();
dot.name = "dotStart";
dot.graphics.beginFill(0x00FF00);
dot.graphics.drawCircle(mouseX, mouseY, 5);
dot.graphics.endFill();
canvas.addChild(dot);
dot = new Sprite();
dot.name = "dotEnd";
dot.graphics.beginFill(0x00FF00);
dot.graphics.drawCircle(0, 0, 5);
dot.graphics.endFill();
canvas.addChild(dot);
canvas.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
enterFrameHandler);
function enterFrameHandler(evt:Event):void {
var dot:DisplayObject = canvas.getChildByName("dotEnd");
dot.x = mouseX;
dot.y = mouseY;
canvas.graphics.clear();
canvas.graphics.lineStyle(1, 0x0000FF);
canvas.graphics.moveTo(startX, startY);
canvas.graphics.lineTo(mouseX, mouseY);
function mouseUpHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
canvas.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
enterFrameHandler);
canvas.removeChild(canvas.getChildByName("dotStart"));
canvas.removeChild(canvas.getChildByName("dotEnd"));
canvas.graphics.clear();
canvas.graphics.lineStyle(2, 0x000000);
canvas.graphics.moveTo(startX, startY);
canvas.graphics.lineTo(mouseX, mouseY);
There's a lot of repeated code there, and this isn't how I'd
leave the
above in an actual project, but by spilling out a rough cut
like this, I'm
hoping it gives you something to work with -- showing the
mechanics of how
this might be done.

Flex Builder choked - need help please

I had to go out of town for a few days so I installed Flex Builder 3 on my MacBook, downloaded and installed Flex SDK 3.3 (Since that is what I have been building on, on my office Mac), created an exported .zip of my major project files on my office Mac, copied it to the MacBook and set off on my trip.
When I set up the MacBook to start work, things looked OK at first, until I tried to switch to design mode. It popped up an error that "This component is based on ______, which is not a visual component. Switch to source mode to edit it" It did this for components based on Grid, Canvas, HBox and more.
I was stumped, and miles from an Internet connection to be able to do research. FInally I decided maybe my install of SDK 3.3 was corrupt. I reset in the project prefs to use SDK 3.0 and ... everything worked perfectly! I did what I needed to do for the rest of the weekend and returned home.
Now, I just tried to export my project as a Flex Project Archive on my MacBook. It resulted in a 24K .zip file - basically empty - that can't be used. So, I just renamed my primary project folder on the office Mac to hide it from Flex Builder, then copied all the files, including the hidden .flexproperties, .project and .actionscriptproperties, from the MacBook onto my office Mac in a new project folder named the same and in the same location as previously. The transfer appeared to be successful.
Now, on my office Mac, I am getting the message "An unknown item is declared as the root of your MXML document.Switch to source mode to correct it." This happens every time I try to switch to Design view, regardless of what component is used in the MXML doc.
After many attempts at figuring out and fixing the problem I tried setting the project properties to utilize SDK 3.1. Once that process was complete, then I went into properties again and set it to 3.3. It appears that I may have succeeded in restoring it to usability, but I'm not confident in that yet.
Can anyone give me some insight into the cause and fix of this problem? Especially the failure of Flex Builder to create a viable .zip archive file? I will be needing to move the project back and forth between my computers quite a bit for travel in the next few months.
Thanks.
Paul

I am not being facetious with my answer but have you considered simply using XCode and Apache Ant and creating your own build script? This is the approach that I've had the fewest of problems with. The reason being is that Ant is Ant no matter where it is. It also cuts out all the background noise (i.e. configuration files, scripts, etc).
I have had similar problems like what you've mentioned using Netbeans and Eclipse (e.g. a version change or an SDK change and suddenly my project is somehow foobar).
As for your error message:
"An unknown item is declared as the root of your MXML document.Switch to source mode to correct it."
StackOverflow seemed to have a solution:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/347196/how-to-resove-this-error-an-unknown-item-is-decl ared-as-the-root-of-your-mxml-do
Don't know if it's your solution. Sometimes these automated tools place little hidden scripts in their comments that are meant to mean something for the drag-and-drop GUI editor and deleting these comments confuses the IDE.

Flex Builder for Linux will need his companion Thermo

I’ve been developing in Flex for a long time now. My
main work is in the design area although I do a lot of coding. The
Flex Builder Linux testing is being quite difficult, since the
layout design view is not enabled yet. So we need a lot of
imagination and a little bit of experience in AS3 and MXML tag
codding.
As a designer (and developer  ) I would like to ask
for a Thermo for Linux. It’s just a request, but I think
there are a lot of guys that share my opinion.
Thanks,

Hi, thanks for your answer.
It turned out the problem was related to the *standalone* flashplayer.
This is located in linux in:
FLEX_BUILDER_INSTALL_PREFIX/Player/linux
when I was clicking on the "Run" button Flex Builder was looking for a flashplayer standalone app, and was failing to find it.
What I had to do was to add the complete the flashplayer path to the PATH used by eclipse.
Now clicking on "Run" it compiles the application and launches the standalone player with the generated swf file.
Now I wonder if there is some way to select the flashplayer to launch, and if it is possible to configure eclipse to make it launch a browser or a custom script rather than execute that swf with the standalone player.
Thanks, regards.

Calling WebServices using Flex Builder

Hello,
I want to use a WebService in the Flex Builder. I first defined the WebService:
<mx:WebService id="test" wsdl="http://ld9030.wdf.sap.corp:50050/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/ZTP_TEST4?wsdl" result="log(event)" showBusyCursor="true">
I have 2 importing parameters in the WebService (IText and IText2).
But in the log-method, I cannot access these parameters:
    private function log(event:ResultEvent):void {
     var test1 = event.result.IText;
Do you know, how I can access the import parameters?
Please find attached the wsdl definition.

Flex Builder 3 / Linux and flashplayer selection

Hi all,
I'm a Flex/AS/Eclipse newbie, and I'm learning all these ones at once in these days.
I'm running Flex Builder 3 with Eclipse 3.3.2 (Europa) in Linux.
Now I'm trying to write a simple project, I should have done something to my system so now I'm getting this error message when I try to compile:
| Flex Builder cannot locate the required version of Flash Player. You might need to install Flash Player 9 or reinstall Flex Builder.
| Do you want to try to run your application with the current version?
My question is: how can I select the flashplayer / plugin to use for a specific Flex project?
Many thanks in advance, best regards.

Hi, thanks for your answer.
It turned out the problem was related to the *standalone* flashplayer.
This is located in linux in:
FLEX_BUILDER_INSTALL_PREFIX/Player/linux
when I was clicking on the "Run" button Flex Builder was looking for a flashplayer standalone app, and was failing to find it.
What I had to do was to add the complete the flashplayer path to the PATH used by eclipse.
Now clicking on "Run" it compiles the application and launches the standalone player with the generated swf file.
Now I wonder if there is some way to select the flashplayer to launch, and if it is possible to configure eclipse to make it launch a browser or a custom script rather than execute that swf with the standalone player.
Thanks, regards.

How to add interface to customlize MXML Component when use Flex Builder 3?

How to add interface to customlize MXML Component when use
Flex Builder 3?

David,
I don't believe you can add the interface via the creation
dialog in FlexBuilder 3. You can always manually add the
"implements" property to your MXML Component root tag. Something
like this: <mx:VBox implements="com.mycorp.IMyInterface">
If you want autogeneration of the interface, then create an
ActionScript class with that interface and then copy the generated
functions and setter/getters into the script block of your MXML
component.
