Flex builder deletes random files?!?!

I am new to Flex Builder. I have a couple of projects that I
have created for test purposes.
I deleted one of these test projects from within flex
builder. It decided that it would delete my entire source tree.
Even better, the delete progress bar had a cancel button! When
clicking the cancel button it grayed out and continued to delete
files! Yay!
Great job on the implementation. keep up the good work.
WTF

Hi,
When you try to delete your project a dialog appear in which
you are asked if you want to delete only the project (this is the
default setting) or if you want to delete your files from the disk
as well (there is a warning saying that this operation can't be
undone).
For the cancel problem please file a bug on
http://bugs.adobe.com/flex/
Thanks,
Gelu

  • Illustrator CS6 deleting random file items

    Hi there. Both myself and the other designer at my office have run into a pretty major problem with Illustrator and we are hoping someone here might be able to get to the bottom of it. First of all, some details as to what we are working on:
    Mac OSX 10.6.8
    Illustrator CS6
    Accessing files on a shared network drive
    I have been working on a file for a number of months now with no problems at all. Right at the point of it being signed off today I opened it to prep for printing (outline fonts, check colours etc.). When I opened it I noticed a number of the graphics (embedded graphics, not linked files) and areas of text were missing. Completely missing. No text boxes, no sign of any images having been there, just GONE. I closed the file without saving and opened it in CS5 - neither the graphics or the text appeared in CS5 either.
    Nobody except myself and the other guy has access to these files (nor the softare to open them). The file has not been opened since June 6th when I last made a change (and everything was fine!).
    This is not the only file we have discovered this problem with - there was another occurence of this with a completely different file yesterday which we put down to a small glitch, but this is now getting worrying. Yesterday it was graph items, so we thought it was something to do with those. Today it is bog standard graphics and text (no font issues either).
    Now, I have also noticed something else with this particular file - it is acting more like an imported PDF than an original Illy file in that items are linked together (un-linked by right-clicking and selecting 'release clipping mask'). I don't know if this could be related? It was definitely created from scratch in Illustrator, and none of the items were linked in such way, or imported from another file.
    Has anyone ever come across this issue before?

    Ok, well, luckily for us I.T could dig through the backup and get us a version of the file from before it became corrupt, and not a lot of work had been done on it since it was last 'ok' so that's saved us.
    I don't however think it is pure luck that we have never in 8 years had ANY issues with working from a shared server, it is FAR too much of a coincidence that we have not long upgraded to CS6 and we are starting to see more and more problems like this. I think it can definitely be attributed to the CS6 release in part - there is a problem here, and whilst I understand that they cannot test for every server configuration you would think in time things would get better, not worse

  • Problem Installing Adobe Flex Builder 3 (Standalone)

    I have attempted a few times today to install the Flex Builder 3 standalone file, but I am having issues. I am currently using Adobe CS4 Design Premium on my computer.
    I am new to this type of application development.  Currently, I mainly used flash to create my interactive applications, but I need to branch out to create more complex applications.  As I already know actionscript 3.0, I was interesting into getting into Flex.  I do not know Javascript, C++, etc.
    Once I download the standalone file to my desktop and run the installer, I do not choose to download Flash Player 9 because I already have nor do I choose do download the Coldfusion or JSEclipse Plug-in as I do not have Eclipse on my computer (it comes with the standalone as I have been led to believe).  After running the installer, it almost gets to the end and then I get the following error message:
    I click OK, it finishes the install and says
    I go to the log file and get the following:

    Can anybody help me on this?  Is there something I missing prior to download?

    We're in the same boat here - the the behavour of xsd:all in
    BETA 3 renders our Flex app virtually useless because of
    communication issues with the backend webservice. We have studied
    the proposed workaround suggested, unfortunately we only control
    the FLEX app - we do not control the WS we have to integrate with.
    As a result we've gone back to BETA 2 to do some critical
    changes in the software but the "Beta expired." message we've been
    receiving is really not well received. As we have been very
    proactive in supporting development in the BETA phases including
    reporitng bugs, we think that Adobe shoudl also have some
    flexibility here and offer ways to extend the BETA 2. We're not
    asking for any type of support during that phase - purely the
    ability to compile our source until we can implement the full work
    around which will allow the software to run on BETA 3. The
    suggestion to change dates or go to previous restore points do not
    work well here with our numerous developers.

  • Flex Builder not compiling changes

    HELP!
    I have a flex project that will build and run OK. If I make
    changes to the a file in the project (an actionscript file to be
    exact) the changes do not seem to compile. AN example is I take out
    huge sections of the code and the project still will build and run.
    I can also put in alert.show in the code and the code does not
    execute.
    This project is imported and originally comes out of SVN.
    I have tried the clean build.
    I can create my own project and make changes. Everything
    works, but when I use the project created by someone else loaded
    into SVN I cannot make any changes to the project. It is like Flex
    Builder is compiling files from another location.
    Please help. I am out of ideas.

    - If there are any errors in the errors/console panel, a new
    swf won't be created
    - Make sure the target SWF file isn't set to Read-Only. It'll
    prevent Flex Builder from updating the file.
    - Check your build settings to make sure where FB is creating
    the file is the same location you expect it to be

  • Flex builder thinks all my files are "derived"

    Whenever I start to modify any file in my flex application
    (mxml, as), my flex builder pops up a warning saying "This file is
    derived. Do you really want to edit it?"
    This happens for code which I have written by hand, not
    autogenerated. Anyone know what this is about?
    -Raj

    My Flex project settings had the same folder for both source
    and output. Changing the output folder fixed the problem. It also
    fixed another issue where my CSS files was being deleted
    automatically.
    Thanks a lot for your response.

  • Where do the Datavisualization files go when not using Flex Builder?

    My application has charting and I use the sdk and ant
    directly, not flex builder. I know where those files are under FB

    in the sdk in order to have charting without flex builder?

  • Error Opening File in Flex Builder 3

    I'm getting the attached error when I try to open a file in
    Flex Builder.
    The base error states "Error opening the editor". I can open
    other files without a problem. It is just this one file I am having
    a problem with.
    I can open the file with no problem in Notepad. I renamed the
    file and tried to create a new MXML file with its original name and
    copy the code from Notepad, but when I try that I get this error:
    "Paste" did not complete normally. Please see the log for
    more information.
    String index out of range: -1
    Please help me.
    Thank you.

    The only thing I can think of that could have caused this was
    this line of code:
    <mx:Button label=">" />
    Would that do it? If so, shouldn't Flex Builder simply show
    me a warning instead making the file completely
    inaccessible?

  • Flex Builder 3 error: This file cannot be launched

    All of a sudden when I try to run my app from within Flex
    Builder 3, I get a popup that says:
    This file cannot be launched. I right click on my mxml file
    and the option to set it as default is greyed out.
    How can I make this error go away?
    Thanks

    I've filed a number of bugs about a lot of things :P
    Part of the problem for me is that I am using Vista x64 and
    there are known issues with Eclipse 3.3 and the Logitech SetPoint
    drivers on that OS. Basically, in FB3 I get corrupted Property
    Dialogs and Preferences (can't change key binds, or set compiler
    config, etc.). It does work in Eclipse 3.4M4 with the plugin, but
    then Design Mode doesn't work properly (images and style are
    wrong), and that is unsupported by Adobe. So basically I switch
    back and forth between the two whenever I need to access the
    dialogs lol. Given that kind of situation, it is difficult to know
    what is a propblem with my specific config, and what is a bug.
    Generally one of the things I see is my embedded fonts start
    showing up as errors when I hit compile, then I have to do a clean
    build. CSS errors/warnings show up in the main mxml file instead of
    the CSS file (at the CSS file's line numbers).
    I've also seen issues where modules aren't saved to the
    properties files properly. Lack of conditional compilation support
    (debug versus release at the bare minimum) in FB3 is annoying
    (though you can do it with ANT).

  • Flex Builder 2 doesn error check .as files????

    When I make new flex project (basic project) and then make
    new ActionScript class or file, I can type ANYTHING in and when I
    save, Flex Builder doesn't report any error! Only when I try to run
    application it reports an error. This doesn't happen inside of
    script blocks in mxml files.
    It is totally unacceptable!
    Is it possible to change this?

  • How to edit xml files in flex builder 3

    Hello Forum
    I'm new to flex, trying to learn my way around it.  I usually use Flash to write my actionscript, but the eclipse interface seems intruiging...
    First question:  I am setting up a config.xml file where the main variables are set for the application.  For some reason Flex Builder 3 doesn't really let me edit or even create xml files?  What is the reason for that?  Do I need to install something additional? What am I missing?
    This is a pure actionscript application by the way...
    Any advice is much appreciated.
    Thank you

    Hi Stephan,
    never the less the way to install plugin.
    Help - Software updates - Find and install...
    "Search new features and install" Next
    "Europa Discovery Site" Finish
    Choose any nearest mirror for your location.
    Find "Web and JEE Development" folder.
    There are "Eclipce XML Editors and Tools" and
    "Web Standard Tools (WST) Project" check them to install. This plugins requier some other plugins, so it's easer to click "Select required" button on left side  to check them all automaticaly.
    After that standart installing procedure: Licence agreement, downloading and so on.
    Hope this helpful.
