Flex SDK 4.5 MPL download corrupt?

I was downloading Flex SDK 4.5 MPL, the open source version, but the downloaded file was only about 13M bytes and not a valid zip archive.
Anyone can check that?
P.S.
Where can I find MD5/SHA1 checksums to check the integrity?

Exactly the same, reported as a bug to flex bug tracker last week, no action since. I assume the zip is either part of a multi-part series or is just corrupt, very frustrating though! Hope someone spots this or the ticket soon.

SDK 8.1 documentation download corrupt

Hi,
I just downloaded the 8.1 SDK documentation 3 times and it is reported corrupt by: XP, WinZip and 7-Zip.
Any chance of fixing this as I'd really like to be able to read the contents!
thank
Andy

I think that we can't unzip it because we are the chosen few! Inside our rare and corrupt zip files are golden tickets!
I can't wait to visit the Adobe castle and see the cute little pdf gnomes and postscript fairies. They say that at 12:00 noon every day the postscript fairies mount their pdf gnomes and perform the delightful but taboo "Flash Dance".
You can feed the gnomes but don't feed the fairies. When fed, the fairies excrete cold fusion and nobody wants that.

Help installing Flex SDK 4.1 on Flex Builder 3 properly

Flex Builder 3 comes with SDK for 2.0.1 and 3.2 by default, so I want to add Flex SDK 4.1
I downloaded it, made a directory in the Flex Builder 3 sdks folder, and unzipped the contents there.
After adding it and selecting/checking it on Flex Builder, I tried to use it by running a project I was using with 3.2 and I get the error below:
unable to open 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3\sdks\4.1.0\frameworks\libs\player\9.0\playerglobal.swc'
What do I need to do or didn't do?

Hi,
You can not use SDK 4.1 in flex builder 3. You need to purchase Flash Builder 4 or use free SDK 4.1 in eclipse.

Do I need flash builder 4 to work with the flex sdk?

Is it necessary to use flash builder 4 to work with the flex sdk?
Can you build apps just using the open source flex sdk. If so are there tutorials and books on how to do so?
Thanks in advance for your help.

No, you don't need Flash Builder to use the Flex SDK. If you download the SDK and unzip it, you'll find a 'bin' directory that has the mxmlc compiler in it. You can compile Actionscript or MXML files using that.
./mxmlc MyFlexApp.mxml
If you are building an AIR application, you will use amxmlc
./amxmlc MyAIRFlexApp.mxml
Then, launch your AIR application using adl
./adl.exe MyAIRFlexApp-app.xml
Hope this helps,
Joan

How to download Flex SDK 4.5 ?

Hi,
I am having trouble to download The Open Source Flex SDK 4.5 zip file from http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Download+Flex+4.5
The file is only 13.2MB instead of 63MB, and when I try to open it, the archive appears to be damaged.
Is there any other alternative url for downloading this SDK?

Thanks Darrell,
The link you provided takes me back to the same download page:
http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Download+Flex+4.5
The Open Source Flex SDK Zip file downloads fine here too.
However, I am not able to open or unzip it as the archive seems to be incomplete or damaged.
Can you open that zip file?

Flex SDK Download - checksum error

Hello,
I downloaded the Flex SDK from
http://www.adobe.com/products/flex/downloads/
When I unzip it (with WinRAR), I get a checksum error.
Any advice?
Thanks.

Thanks! I noticed the whole site was down for a bit and is now back up. Just wanted to be clear that this was not my initial problem - it was just the flex sdk 3.1 - which is still not available, at least for me.

Flex SDK Download server is down.

Incase no one at Adobe is aware, none of the downloads work for any of the files found at:
http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Download+Flex+4
Select an item to download, click the checkbox and once you click on the "Download Zip" link you get an error everytime, regardless of which file you are trying to download. I've tried off and on all morning and have had the same result each time.
Here is the error message for the latest full nightly build:
The requested URL /pub/flex/sdk/builds/Flex4/4.0.0.7573/flex_sdk_4.0.0.7573.zip was not found on this server.

Thanks! I noticed the whole site was down for a bit and is now back up. Just wanted to be clear that this was not my initial problem - it was just the flex sdk 3.1 - which is still not available, at least for me.

I am not getting Flex Sdk 3.2 anyone please send me link to download it.

Please anyone send me link to download Flex Sdk 3.2. I am not getting it. Its urgent.

You can found them in http://sourceforge.net/adobe/flexsdk/wiki/Download%20Flex%203/. All Flex 3 Downloads are here.

Where to download Flex SDK

Where can I download the Flex SDK.
The link SAP Dashboard Design (Xcelsius Engage) 2008 Component SDK SP3
only contains Xcelsius and the SDk documentation.
Where can I download the SDK with the Add-on pakcager?

Hi Mike,
Follow the link again, maybe the text had not been updated when you last looked, it says:
The SDK is included as a custom installation type when you install Xcelsius 2008 SP3, refer to the Xcelsius 2008 SP3 install guide for more details
So the SDK is included with Xcelsius 2008 SP3, it is no longer available for download on its own as you need Xcelsius 2008 SP3 to test your add-on anyway.

How to setup Flex SDK with latest AIR SDK?

Now the latest AIRSDK web page has a small link at the bottom for Flex users and it states that Flex users should take the SDK version without the compiler. BUT....
the http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-builder/kb/overlay-air-sdk-flash-builder.html page says to download the SDK from
http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/asc2.html
but this page now redirects to:
http://helpx.adobe.com/air/kb/archived-air-sdk-version.html
which contains a large list of archived SDK's. So that help page never really says which version of the SDK to use - with or without the compiler. But other forum posts have implied its suppose to be the one with the compiler.
Now since we're overlaying the ...plugins\com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722\AIRSDK folder that would make sense.
But now there's a second overlay instructions page at:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/how-overlay-air-sdk-flex-sdk.html
with different instructions.
So my questions are:
   Which overlay instructions are we really suppose to use?
   Which version of the AIR SDK (with or with-out compiler) are we suppose to use?
   What does the Flex Library Project properties -> Flex Library Compiler -> 'Include Adobe AIR libraries' checkbox really do?
        If I've followed the (first) overlay instructions above, does this checkbox now mean I'm using the overlaid AIR SDK 3.6
        with the current Flex SDK I've chosen?
        What if I'm using the Apache Flex 4.9.1 SDK? Will the AIR SDK 3.6 overlay that?
            (Doesn't Apache Flex have AIR 3.4 embedded - will this confuse Flash Builder 4.7 ?)
Is it just me, or is this just getting more and more confusing? Can we perhaps get a AIR SDK combo box to go beside the Flex combo box and when we check the 'Include Adobe AIR libraries' then we can select the AIR SDK we want? And get a 'configure AIR SDKs...' link too? Then perhaps we can get completely away from overlays and all this merged SDK nonsense. I've had nothing but problems with it.
The real reason I need all this info is because I'm trying to use Flash Builder 4.7 to build an Android ANE and I'm having a devil of a time just trying to find my resources. When I use context.getResourceID() I'm not getting the correct resources - and after reviewing other posts here I came to the conclusion that it might be due to bugs in older AIR SDK's. So really, at the moment I could care less about the latest Flex SDK, I just need to know I'm working from the latest AIR SDK.
Thanks in advance.

If you are not using Flash Builder go here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air-sdk-download.html
At the bottom it says:
Note : Flex users will need to download the original AIR SDK without the new compiler. Mac Windows.
Download the proper one for your OS and then extract it over your existing Flex SDK directory.
EDIT: Just read your post again and noticed you mentioned Flash Builder. In that case you want to follow these directions: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-builder/kb/overlay-air-sdk-flash-builder.html and grab the version with the compiler at http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/air-sdk-download.html

Installing Flex SDK into Flash Builder 4.7 problems

Hi,
Im completely new to Flash Builder, today I have installed Flash Builder 4.7 & Flash CS6 from Creative Cloud for my son to start to learn game programming (with my help), I have used simple coding in web design however this terminology is new to me.
I bought my son the latest 'Foundation Game Design with ActionScript 3.0' book on recommendation but it was written when FB was version 4.5 so im guessing this might be the problem.
The book is very easy to follow but have hit problems at the beginning of the tutorials, the book talks about Flex SDK but it seems that FB 4.7 uses AIR SDK ?
So the first project called HelloWorld, we got up to:
Got an exclamation mark which said
'The import flash.display.Sprite is not used
locally'
Continuing with the rest of the project the exclamation mark disappeared:
However on selecting run- Debug we got a blank Flash Player window ('generate HTML wrapper file' was deselected)
So either we've done something wrong, or the book and FB version are not compatible?
Any advice would be great!
Thank you
Latest ...
I thought that installing Flex SDK may solve the problem but after following instructions I have the error message, see image below. Really stumped now!

Sorry, if I went a little overboard. After re-reading your post, perhaps I should back up a little.
First, there are little things that Flash Builder (FB) will complain about. Having extra import statements in your code doesn't hurt anything. If I'm trying different solutions and then commenting out the code, the import statements will hang around, FB will complain, but just ignore it. If you see a little icon on the left edge of your code editor and its a red circle with an X in it, then that is something that will have to be fixed.
When you create an app in FB or Flash you can choose to create a web app which means it will run in a browser window. The project can optionally create an HTML wrapper, or web page that will load your app. In Flash Pro you can choose File->Publish Settings and there will be a checkbox on the left to publish a HTML wrapper. In FB, you can right click your project in the Package Explorer, select Properties at the bottom, select the ActionScript Compiler, and down at the bottom there will be a checkbox to create a HTML wrapper.
If you're just learning Flash Builder, then the FlexSDK 4.6 and the AIR SDK 3.1 that comes with it should be fine. You mentioned Apache SDK and I'd recently been working with that so I ended up getting side-tracked.
Getting an AIRSDK to work with when build ActionScript projects is easy. Just go to the adobe site, type AIR SDK in the search box, and you should find a page that will let you downloaded the latest version. There's also a page to let you download the latest AIR runtime, and if you were just going to run AIR apps and not build them, then that's all you would need. As a developer you'll want to install the runtime from the downloaded .exe file. With the SDK, after downloading it, installing it is easy. Just create a new folder an unzip the SDK into it, then place it somewhere easy to find. I put all my SDK's in their own directory right off the c: drive. So I have c:\AIRSDK_3.5.0.880 and c:\AIRSDK_3.7.0.1530. I use very descriptive folder names so I always know which SDK's I have to work from.
To use the SDK in Flash Pro select Help -> Manage AIR SDK, hit the plus button and add the folder you created. Now when you've opened a Flash project, you go to File->Publish Settings and select the combo box at the top, you'll see options like 'AIR 3.7.0.1530 for Android' in the list that reflect the SDK's you've added.
Generally with FB you'll be using a FlexSDK, or perhaps a FlexSDK overlaid with a newer version of AIRSDK. Overlaid basically means you copied the contents of the AIR SDK into the Flex Folder. The article I mentioned above will give you all the details on creating those. For instance, I downloaded the Apache Flex installer, installed it, then created an empty folder called c:\ApacheFlexSDK_4.9.1, launched the Apache installer, gave it the new empty folder I'd created, selected all the download options, and let it all download. If it launches a popup box or a security warning, you can allow it, and it will continue. Once you have the SDK and you want to use it with a project in FB, just right click the project, select Properties, selected that Compiler tab again, and up in the right corner you'll see 'Manage SDK's...'. Hit that link, add your new SDK to the list and give it a descriptive name, then selected the checkbox beside it to set it up as your default. If you do this, then all your projects set to use the default will automatically switch to it and rebuild. So if you want a project to stay with a specific SDK then select that option in your Compiler tab, and then you could use the combo box to select your new added SDK.
When I started with FB I think I spent the first 2 days going round and round with project settings and options until I got them all figured out.
When I develop, I usually have my browser open and I have bookmarks and favorites to let me quickly get to all the pages I use most often. Here are a few of them:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/index.html <---- The API reference. In the packages window check out 'Top Level' at the top and Language Elements near the bottom. I think I have this page open in one or more tabs almost every day.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet.html

And you've already found the forums! But if you don't find an answer here, many times you can find your question already answered on www.stackoverflow.com forums.
Ok, I think I went a little overboard again.

AS3 Preloader (without Flex SDK or Flash CS)

I use FlashBuilder but not the Flex SDK, just pure Actionscript. I have a swf application that is too long to download, so I would like to display a progressbar while the swf is being downloaded from the host.
My main class is a Sprite. I tried to add a progressEvent.PROGRESS listener on root.loaderInfo in the constructor of my main Sprite, but then a PROGRESS event is fired only when all the swf is downloaded. Useless.
On a Flex project, you have a Preloader included in the main Application, that displays a progressBar while the application swf is being downloaded from the server and initializing.
That's what I want.
Does someone understand how the Flex Preloader works ?
Do you know how to do that without Flex SDK ?

Here is the Preloader class :
public class Preloader extends MovieClip
public function Preloader()
    super();
    stop();
    if (root && root.loaderInfo)
    root.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.INIT, initHandler, false, 0, true);
private function initHandler(e:Event):void
    root.loaderInfo.removeEventListener(Event.INIT, initHandler);
    displayProgressBar();
    root.loaderInfo.addEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler, false, 0, true);
    root.loaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler, false, 0, true);
private function progressHandler(e:ProgressEvent):void
    displayProgressBar(e.bytesLoaded, e.bytesTotal);
private function completeHandler(e:Event):void
    root.loaderInfo.removeEventListener(ProgressEvent.PROGRESS, progressHandler);
    root.loaderInfo.removeEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, completeHandler);
    removeProgressBar();
    nextFrame();
    var mainClass:Class = Class(getDefinitionByName("MainApplication"));
    if(mainClass)
      var app:Sprite = new mainClass();
      stage.addChild(app);
    stage.removeChild(this);
private function displayProgressBar(bytesLoaded:int = -1, bytesTotal:int = -1):void
   // add a progressBar and display the progress
private function removeProgressBar(bytesLoaded:int = -1, bytesTotal:int = -1):void
   // remove the progressBar

Issue with AdvancedDataGrid in Flex SDK 3.3

Hello Forum,
I downloaded and installed Flex SDK 3.3. Once I pointed my environment to the SDK 3.3, compiler complained that it can’t find AdvancedDataGrid component in the path. After some investigation, I was able to fix this issue by downloading Flex 3.3 Data Visualization Components from http://www.adobe.com/products/flex/flexdownloads/. Then I had to unzip downloaded file into the /sdk_3.3.0_install_dir/
I don't think I had to go through this in my previous installations - 3.2 and 3.1. Does anyone know the reason for this two step download and installation?
Also, I would like to use a new Vector class in my future development, does anyone know what version of SDK provides it?
Much Appreciated,
Mike

If I'm not wrong Vector is a part of Flash Player 10, so it's no related to the SDK, and also in Flex Builder you can access all the new classes that are available in FP 10 but you don't get autocompletion for those new clases if I'm not wrong.
