Flex eclipse plugin installation problem

Hi All,
I have eclipse 3.x Europa edition. I am trying to install
Flex builder 3 plugin for eclipse for some time now.
It is frustrating that the installation always hangs when it
tries to install "Merge module".
I downloaded the eclipse plugin from the adobe site:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=flex3email
Please help so that i can do some quality flex coding.
Thanks,
Madhav
Adobe
Flex Eclipse Plugin Link

I am replying to all these posts about issues with the
install to let Adobe know that there is a compatibility issue with
the FB2 eclispe plugin installer. This is a major issue that is
keeping people from trying/buying this product.

Eclipse plugin installer not recognize eclipse

When I run the eclipse plugin installer it gives me a popup
message that "Eclipse 3.x not found. I think I'm pointing the
installer at a directory with all the eclipse files - I can
initiate eclipse from the icon in the library - any ideas how to
solve this problem?

If you have installed Eclipse 3.3, then Flex 2 will not work
with it. You need Eclipse 3.2 for Flex 2. You can however, run Flex
3 with Eclipse 3.3 - check labs.adobe.com for details on Flex
3.

Hi,
For the Raspberry Pi, tooling over serial port is not supported. The simplest solution is to use standard IP networking over Ethernet. This can be a direct connection between the PC and the Raspberry Pi, as long as the cable is twisted and the IP addressing is correct (e.g. manual IP addressing or DHCP server on the PC).
Regarding "Connecting to a UART Device": This is meant for attaching and controlling serial devices from the Raspberry Pi, not for tooling connections between the Raspberry Pi and the PC.
Hope this helps,

Flex 3.2 & 3.3 Framework Issue w/ Eclipse Plugin

Hey Guys,
I'm having an issue with using the 3.2 and 3.3 frameworks with the eclipse plugin (not an issue with the stand alone flex builder) (eclipse v3.3.2). Pretty much everything works but the code hinting and auto importing doesn't work on some items. For example anything in the "flash" package structure (ie: Event) will not import, and even worse within actionscript files, if the imports are manually typed out, the next time it does auto import something it'll actually run clean up on the file and delete the manually typed imports. Also when typing out in mxml certain components, for example an mx:Button, the code hinting will not recognize certain attribues such as "click". At compile time all is well and works fine as long as everything is manually typed in there. Of course to really be an efficient coder manually typing and retyping certain imports over and over is not the answer.
Thanks in advance!

I've been using the FB Eclipse plugin (with Eclipse 3.4 and SDK 3.2.0) quite a bit and haven't had this problem at all, so I'm just taking a stab in the dark here to try to help. It sounds to me like there might be an incorrect setting in your Flex Build Path properties or something related. Make sure your project has the correct Flex SDK selected in the Library path, and make sure all the .swc files are showing up underneath it. In particular, look for playerglobal.swc (that's the file that contains e.g. flash.events.Event).
If that doesn't help, you really need to provide a little more information in your question, like:
What have you already tried doing to fix the problem? (For example, have you completely uninstalled and then reinstalled the Flex Builder Plugin since switching SDKs? I didn't need to do this the last time I upgraded the SDK, but I'd say it's worth a try, since the installation process is pretty painless.)
Have you changed any of the Flex settings in Eclipse?
If you're working with a project you created previously, have you tried creating a brand new Flex project in Eclipse to see if the problem persists in a new project?

Eclipse +flex 3 plugin crashes when trying to see mxml file in design mode

Hi,
I have strange problem I've been struggling with for 3 days.
I have eclipse-jee-europa-fall2-win32(eclipse europa 3.3.1.1)
+ adobe flex 3 eclipse plugin.
My workspace consists of several projects + one library.
There is not problem when trying to edit any mxml file when
my library is not imported yet. Once I import it to my workspace I
cannot see any mxml file in design mode since it crashes with the
following msg in log:
Did anyone have similar problem and maybe knows the
solutiuon? I've reinstalled/redownoaded eclipse, flex plugin, flash
players and so on. What's more it happens only on my machine - same
project on different one works without crushing.

I've found solution by myself so I'll present it here. Maybe
someone will need it.
The problem of such behaviour was that Flex plugin always (at
least on my pc) wants to ustart eclipse using its own JRE from here
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\jre (default dir).
This environment is Java 5. When you go to
eclipse>window>preferences>Java>Installed JREs and you
delete default Flex JRE, add new to point to for example C:\Program
Files\Java\jre1.6.0_04 eclipse still uses JRE from C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\jre. Do not know why
Flex/eclipse does that but if you simply overwrite C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\jre files with newer JRE from
C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_04 all works perfectly.
Hope it helps somebody ;-)
thanks Artur

Flex Builder 3 Eclipse Plugin

Flex Builder 3 Eclipse Pluginのダウンロードができません。サポートが終了したのでしょか？

I'm not quite sure what has gone wrong here, but can you
please try launching with the "-clean" command line option? E.g.
from the command line:
eclipse -clean
or
flexbuilder -clean
Some background, in case it helps: Although I don't know why
this has happened, it appears that a DLL is missing. Almost all of
Flex Builder is written in Java, but there are a few bits of native
code. In your "plugins" directory (e.g. "C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\plugins", or ""C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\eclipse\plugins", something like
that) should be either a file or a directory called
com.adobe.flexbuilder.utils.osnative_3.0.*.jar (where "*" is a
six-digit number). Inside that jar file, among other things, should
be a file called os/win32/x86/JNIToNativeBridge.dll. Please note,
there are two plugins with similar names:
com.adobe.flexbuilder.utils.osnative, and
com.adobe.flexbuilder.utils.osnative.win. The one I am referring to
here is the one that does *not* have "win" in the name.
Eclipse caches lots of stuff; one thing it does is, if it
finds a DLL in a plugin, it sometimes copies that DLL to another
place, called the configuration directory. The "-clean" option
tells Eclipse to discard its cache.
Please let me know whether this resolves the problem.

Developing Flex outside of Eclipse plugin environment?

I'm curious to know how many of those doing actual Flex development are working with the SDK directly and not using the Flash Builder Eclipse platform?
While the design view aspect of the plugin is nice, I'm finding that I'm spending most of my time directly in the code and less in the design view. In fact, I'm getting somewhat frustrated by the design mode since there are feature that I would have expected that are simply not provided.

Flex Builder Eclipse Plugin install

I am trying to install the Flex builder eclipse plugin and
when I choose the path to eclipse, the installer gives me a warning
the root folder must contain the subfolder configuration. My path
is /Developer/Applications/eclipse. there is a subfolder
configuration. I have permission to the folders. The gui installer
under the title "Please Choose an Existing Eclipse Folder" displays
"eclipse" in the folder "Applications" on the disk "Macintosh HD".
Is the installer looking at /Application, not
/Developer/Applications?

I installed the plugin on another eclipse and copied over the
adobe com folders and jars to the features, plugins, and
configuration folders of my eclipse install

I had the same issue and ended up installing another eclipse
installation with no add-ons (unzipped the zip file in a different
location). I will then start adding the plug-ins that I am missing
now.
So basically I had to do a brand new install of Eclipse,
which almost defeats the purpose of the plug-in
Hopefully, the Adobe folks will fix this bug.
I had the CFEclipse, JSEclipse and MyEclipse Plug-ins on V3.2
installed.

Extending Flex Builder - eclipse plugin

I'm trying to find out more about writing Eclipse Plugins
that extend Flex Builder.
I've taken a look at the 'Adobe Flex Builder 3 Extensibility'
section of the Flex Builder help files and didn't find them that
helpful.
For example, at the moment I'm trying to get my new Eclipse
command to call the adt binary file in the user's chosen default
Flex SDK. So some immediate questions arise:
1) Which Flex or Eclipse class contains the filesystem
reference to the user's default Flex sdk so that I can call 'adt'
with user entered parameters?
2) Are there any tutorials or resources on extending Flex
Builder with custom Eclipse plugins apart from the limited Adobe
documentation?

Jason,
Yes you still need to purchase - you can install the product
as a full install, or as an eclipse plug in. Trying the 30 day
trial for getting your feet wet is the only option currently. Take
advantage of free training from total training:

Cheers,

Eclipse Plugin Problems

Hello All,
I do not know if you are all using the eclipse plugin or if you are using jdeveloper. I do not want to use jdeveloper if possible (we have been using eclipse for some time, and to install jdeveloper just for it's bpel editor seems too heavy.)
It seems that the eclipse plugin requires all of the project artifacts for a BPEL process to be in the actual eclipse project folder. When I move it outside the project and create a linked folder to the artificats the plugin complains with javascript errors and fails to show the bpel process or perform a build.
it's an odd dependency. Has anyone else observed this? Am i out to lunch here? :)

I also use a workspace just for BPEL. I think that the plug-in is somehow cohesive with the project directory. Meaning that; you canât just open a BPEL file and have it work. It needs the BPEL file to be in a valid project. This stinks when you start to consider the management of BPEL projects. Project file contain machine specific information. So If I check a BPEL project in to CVS, my peers may not be able to check it out and have it work because their setup is not the same as mine. I typically do not have anything in the eclipse project except references to my check-out area.
I do have some questions about the fate of the eclipse plug in. Will Oracle continue to develop it? Release it to open source? Or abandon it for JDeveloper only. If the eclipse plug in is going to continue they should fix the problem we are discussing.

Eclipse plugin for flex

Hi,
Is there any Flex plugin for Eclipse which has features like
syntax coloring, auto-suggestion and compilation for
actionscript and mxml. I tried using ASDT but it isn't of much
help. It supports only syntax coloring. Writing action script code
in plain editor is sometimes a very big pain.
Thanks,
Ashish Abrol

You can download the Eclipse plugin for Flex in the Adobe
Website. Then in Eclipse you have to configure the editor's section
and select the mxml and as extensions to be edited with the Flex
plugin, that way you will have syntax coloring and
auto-suggestion

Getting the Flex Builder Plugin for Eclipse

I may be a dope, but I can't tell you how long it took me to
find the download for the Flex Builder plugin for an existing
install of Eclipse. If you're looking for the plugin, go to the
last line of the FlexBuilder standalone download page--and then, in
the last line, you will see a link buried in the line--click on
that, and you will get the download. Adobe, this is really, really
stupid way to organize your downloads.

Ha, I'm not alone ;)
Thanks for pointing it out. It might seem obvious once you
notice the link, but I totally missed it.
The Adobe flex builder rips off numerous useful features that
eclipse offers, such as the ability to search all files, and it is
very inconvenient.

Flex builder plugin for Eclipse

Hi,
I downloaded flash builder and tried some examples. flash builder is comercial one.
For that reason i am trying to configure flex builder as a eclipse plugin.
Flex builder for eclipse plugin is open source/ it is also comercial?
Please share me the knowledge for successful confiuration of Flexbuilder with Eclipse.
