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.

Suggestions for Flex Builder for Linux

I'm new to Flex, and I have to say that I'm enjoying it quite
a lot. I think the thing that really helps speed up development is
good tools. Flex Builder 3 for Linux makes a good start at
providing a very nice development tool, but there are a couple of
things I'd like to see different with this tool.
First off, please give me an update site to use to install
Flex Builder. I use Red Hat Developer Studio (soon to be JBoss
Developer Studio, Eclipse 3.2 based), and I can't get FB 3 Alpha
for Linux to install into it. I have been successful with base
Eclipse Europa and FB 3, but I'd like to have my IDE tools in one
frame. An update site would let me add FB 3 into any Eclipse flavor
I choose, as long as it supported the appropriate components.
Next, Design mode for FB 3 is a must. I am very functional
with the content assist features in the source editor (and they are
_quite_ good, I must say), but design view really helps me preview
changes quickly and rapidly test out UI designs. Much faster than
writing and launching over and over.
Otherwise, great work, and please get out a new release
soon!

Creating a project in Flex Builder for the Hybrid Store sample Application

Hi all,
How to create a project in Flexbuilder for the hybrid store
sample application.
I downloaded the source code of hybridstore application,
Now i have to create a project for it to run that application
in my system,
will you please tell me how to create a project for this
sample.
I have also read the readme.html file. but i could not follow
exactly what they are saying.
what i did is, I unzipped the source code into a folder
hybridstore.
I opened the flexbuilder : File -- new -- flexproject ( i
have selected) then i have given name to my file (hybridstore) ,
and set the path to the hybridstore folder where the source code
exists.
but it as created hybridstore.mxml file also.
it is not working.
will you please till me how to create project for this
application.
I have created project for other samples like restaurent
finder, dashboard. they are working fine.
I got problem with this sample only.
Thanks in advance

Avanthika

Hi,
thanks for your reply,
I have tried to open using file import, but still it is not
working.
in the readme file for this application , contains how to
Creating a project in Flex Builder for the Hybrid Store
application:
Name your default application catalog.mxml.
Prevent Flex Builder from generating an HTML wrapper: select
Project > Properties. Select the Flex Compiler page, deselect
the Generate HTML wrapper file option .
Create a Run configuration for your project but deselect the
Use defaults option and instead assign the Run setting to the
hybridstore.html in your project's bin directory.
To enable debugging of the Hybrid Store application you must
create a copy of hybridstore.html. Open it in an editor (you can
right-click on the file and select Open With > Text Editor).
Find the line that says "src", "catalog" and change it to "src",
"catalog-debug". Assign the Debug setting to this new HTML file.
As i am new to flex , i could not know how to do this.
please help me how to do this.

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 :-) )

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.

CS4 or FLEX Builder for AIR Application?

Hello,
I have installed CS4 and Flex builder 3. I would like to develop some desktop applications, which is the best editor to develop AIR application?
Thank you

I faced a similar choice recently: Flash or Flex for developing CS4 panels.
John Nack advised me to use Flex Builder. He was right. For a desktop AIR application or something like CS4 panels, the Flex Builder IDE is more powerful and helpful. If you're a developer familiar with other programming tool IDEs, like Microsoft Visual Studio, various Java IDEs, etc. then you will find the Flx Builder IDE to be more intuitive.
Flash is a good choice for developing animated SWF panels that are driving things like Flash movies. If you use Flash, you'll have to deal with the Timeline. With Flex Builder, you don't.
They both provide access to Action Script. But they expose functionality differently. Also, Flex Builder provides some data visualization tools, etc. that are not part of Flash.

PowerPC build for Linux?

Is there any plan for a PowerPC (PPC) build of Flash Player
for Linux? I would like Flash Player to work on my iBook which runs
Linux...

> Answer it and I will go away...
I did answer it .. it will be available when its ready.
If it isn't out there, then people here won't know. This is a
forum for
MM/Adobe clients, its not a direct line to god (I mean, the
MM developers).
if you're VERY lucky someone from MM will read it .. but
whether or not they
are allowed to answer it (even if they cane) with something
definite is
unlikely.
Asking over and over won't make it happen any quicker. It
will just
encourage other people to ignore your posts.

Word ducuments in different languages/dictionaries to Pages - for Lion will need to transfer files to Pages, but how to handle texts in different languages?

As Lion does no longer support 'Rosetta" I will need to import my WORD files. I am using several languages (E, D, F, I) and would like to also write/check the texts before sending. I have not found any way to do this in Pages. Have I overlooked something? Thanks for guidance. Gottfried

I guess that you would get better results with libreOffice which is really designed to clone Office which is not the case for iWork.

Will there be Oracle 8i for Linux?

Does anyone know if there will there be Oracle 8i for Linux?
This would be wonderful as my company's decision to offer system

Thanks!

I am told my my rep that 8i for Linux will be in the "sooner"
category rather than "later." He's expecting it sometime this
quarter.

Flex 4.5 build for ios

HI,
Right at the beginning of my flex journey and so I'm using examples to see how stuff is done.
I have done the recent adobe flash builder update and can make simple flex builds for ios, google android and blackberry. Cool.
I have sourced a demo flex 4.5 project that was done for android (I think before the update) but when I go to do a build for ios
the option on the drop down is not there (just has google, no ios or blackberry) So I guess the project thinks its in pre-update mode
So the question is, what is causing the drop down to only have google, is there some library/framework/script I need to add or something
so this demo flex project that was writen for android can be tested on ios.
hope this makes sense!
thanks
mike

License migration from Flex Builder 3 to Flex Builder 4

I am ready to purchase a license for Flex Builder but am hesitant to do so. It appears that Flex Builder 3 is available now with Flex Builder 4 coming within some time period. If I buy a Flex Builder 3 license now will I be entitled to Flex Builder 4? If not, should I wait for FB 4 to become available? What is the anticipated ship date of that product?
Neil

From our FAQ
Q: If I purchase Flex Builder 3, am I eligible for an upgrade to Flash Builder 4?
A: Adobe has not yet announced the ship date of Flash Builder 4. To be eligible for a free of charge upgrade to Flash Builder 4, you will need to purchase maintenance along with your purchase of Flex Builder. You can purchase maintenance with your Flex Builder 3 Standard purchase for an additional $99 US which makes you eligible for a free-of-charge copy of Flash Builder 4 Standard edition when it ships. You can purchase maintenance with your Flex Builder 3 Pro purchase for an additional $299 US. To purchase maintenance, you will need to buy through an Adobe reseller. In the US, please contact CDW at 800-800-4239.

Flash Builder 4 (Linux)

Is there a planned Linux version of Flash Builder? I've been using the FB3 alpha release for a long time now, and I'm hoping that FB4 will be released for Linux. I'm sure there are many out there who are more than willing to pay for it.
Flash Builder for Linux would be one more step toward making it possible to easily develop Flash Platform applications on any operating system. I know it's possible to do this via the Flex SDK, but IDE support speeds development time by a LOT.

hi,don't waiting....
this is a port version for linux:
a project to port the Adobe Flash Builder to Linux
Hmmmm, and how exactly do you 'port' commercial software, Flex SDK is open source so sure you could develop a gumbo ide for the sdk but all those features beyond the sdk that actually are what Flashbuilder is about come out of Adobe you can't have a (one-long-dhonge) version of Flashbuilder with Adobe trade marks your post shouldn't even be here in the forums.
