Installing WTP Plugin in Flash Builder 4.6

Hi,
I have downloaded trial version of Flash Builder4.6. I would like to create a flex/java combined project.
But I am having trouble in installing WTP. I have googled a lot and every post is suggesting something different.
But whatever I try, at the end it complains about dependency etc.
I would really appreciate if any one point to a link or list down the pre requirements and steps to get the WTP working in FB4.6
thanks

Hi Ravi,
just installed AIR3 SDK at work. I try to recap the steps I did:
1. Locate the "old" SDKs
They are located in the Flash Builder directory, in my case this was c:\program files(x86)\adobe\flash builder 4.5\sdks
2. Make a copy of the previous SDK
Copy a previous SDK (I used SDK 4.5.1 for that) and rename the copied folder to AIR3SDK (or a different name if you like)
3. Overwrite the copied (!) SDK with the AIR3 SDK
Copy all files from the AIR3 SDK into the copied folder. It should ask you to overwrite files quite a couple of times. After this, you should have a working AIR3 SDK installed.
4. Set a name for the new SDK
I had to to this with the Beta2 - go to the new SDK directory and edit flex-sdk-description.xml - change the <name> content from Flex 4.5.1 to AIR3 SDK.
6. Add the new playerglobal.swc from Flash Player 11
Download the current Flash Player 11 "playerglobal.swc" from http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/flashplayer11.html and put it into the correct folder. From the SDKs root folder this was: <sdkroot>/frameworks/libs/player/11.0/ (I had to create the 11.0 folder myself and then just put the file in there and rename it to plain "playerglobal.swc")
7. Add the AIR3 SDK to Flash Builder
Under "Project Settings - Flex Compiler" for a project, choose the new SDK as SDK to use for the project. If the SDK does not show up, go to "configure Flex SDKs", then "Add" and select the newly created folder. The new AIR3 SDK should now be included in the dropdown list as a compiler for that project.
Don't forget to add -swf-version=13 as a compiler flag on the same screen.
After doing all this, I was able to use the new features, compile my projects and well, work with it
Edit: I almost forgot - you also have to set the namespace in your -app.xml to 3.0 like this:
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/3.0">
Best regards,
Martin

Can I install Coldfusion Builder as a plugin for Flash Builder?

I already have a licensed copy of Flash Builder 4.x installed, trying to install ColdFusion Builder as a plugin for Flash Builder. When I installed CFB, I selected install as a eclipse plugin and entered the path to the FB directory. Now I can't figure out how to invoke/add the CFB plugin in FB..
Thanks in advance

You should have uninstalled rather than simply deleting CFB 2 plugins manually .
Please do the following to fix it now. (If you have used Uninstaller to uninstall that would have cleaned all these things ):
Take a backup and delete the file: /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Uninstall/{b8c666c3-1efd-11b2-bf3c-e04be4b2b610}.db
And you will be able to install CFB as plugin to Eclipse now.
Thanks,

Problem while installing LiveCycle Mosaic ES2 Plugin for Flash Builder 4

I am trying to work on Live Cycle Mosaic 9.5 and I have downloaded FlashBuilder 4 and trying to configure the mosaic plugin "LiveCycle Mosaic ES2 Plugin for Flash Builder 4" in Flash Builder as per following directions given on adobe site:
     "Add the following two update sites via Window > Preferences > Install/Update > Available Software Sites (names below are suggested/optional):

Please, suggest me how can I solve this problem to configure mosaic plugin on flash builder 4.

I think that in addition to adding the dependency on the galileo HTTP location the instructions should also advise you to 'check for updates'.

Installing Groovy-Eclipse in Flash Builder

Has anyone been successful in installing Groovy-Eclipse in Flash Builder. I am currently using Flash Builder 4.5 and starting to work with Groovy. Any help would be nice.

This is really the error I been seeing. I guess the other one just came from the Maven part.

CS6 Master Suite install issue- An incompatible Flash Builder 4.6 has to be unloaded

But it does not exist???
On installing Master Suite CS6 "flash builder" cannot be activated to be installed.
When placing the curser over it the following message is displayed:
A conflict or pre release version of Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 exists on this compluter. The conflicting version must be removed before installing from the current media.
Problem - There is no version 4.6 on this computer to be unistalled!
Any suggestions on what to do next?
Cheers,

1.Use the Adobe Creative suites Cleaner tool to remove any trace left of Flash builder
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
2.Restart machine, Try installing again
Ensure you have complete administrator privileges and right click on the exe and choose "Run as Administrator" while installing, ensure the directory you are writing to has write access for your user.
if it still does not work
3. Uninstall Flash Builder 4.6 using Creative Suites uninstaller
4. Repeat Step 1 and restart machine, download the Standalone installer at
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=flash_builder
and install, this should install it, and would take the Serial number from Creative Suites automatically.

Question about Starting Eclipse with PVCS Version Manager Plugin and Flash Builder 4 plugin

I used Eclipse 3.4.2 SR2 with PVCS Version Manager plugin.
I installed Adobe Flash Builder 4 Plugin to the Eclipse.
Eclipse executed successfully at first time.
After I open *.mxml file with the Eclipse and close.
After minutes, I execute Eclipse.
But I waited 40 minutes to see Eclipse Editor screen.
Are there any problem in Adobe Flash Builder 4 Plugin?
====== If you know Korean Character, You can see below message, I hope so ========
Environment
* OS: Windows XP SP3
* Eclipse: 3.4.2 SR2
* JDK: 1.5.0
* Serena PVCS Version Manager : 8.3.0
* Adobe Flash Builder 4 Plugin
위의 환경에서 Eclipse에 Version Manager Plugin을 설치하여 사용할 때는 잘 동작 하였습니다.
하지만, Adobe Flash Builder 4 Plugin 을 설치하고 *.mxml 파일을 열어 작업한 후에 Eclipse를 Close 하였습니다.
잠시후에 다시 Eclipse를 실행하면 약 40분 정도 시간이 지나서야 Eclipse 편집창을 볼 수 있었습니다.
혹시 Adobe Flash Builder 4 Plugin 제품과 Serena PVCS Version Manager 제품이 서로 conflict 하는 것이 아닌가
의심을 하고 있습니다.
귀사에서 이런 경험이 있다면 해결 방법을 알려주시면 감사하겠습니다.
Thank's

I experimented with the latest Zend Studio 8 trials on both platforms yesterday, and it looks a little different depending on which platform you're using:
On OS X, because Zend Studio is now contained entirely within the app bundle, it's tricky navigating to the proper eclipse folder with our Plug-in Utility. As it turns out, the Zend dropins folder does exist if you look down low enough:
/Applications/Zend Studio.app/Contents/Resources/Java/dropins
When I typed that path into the Burrito Plug-in Utility manually, it found the dropins folder, and proceeded to install the link without complaint. However, the Zend dropins folder is not working properly on OS X either, as already found on Win, so it's not using the link.
On Win, Zend Studio 8 doesn't include the dropins folder in the first place, as noted earlier. Apparently, Zend doesn't have its dropins folder enabled on either Mac or Win.
To see if this problem is specific to dropin links, I downloaded the latest Orbit plugins from eclipse.org and tried adding those directly to the Zend dropins folder, instead of using a link. Zend doesn’t appear to recognize them either.
I'll check with our contact at Zend to see what happened.

Installing SVN in Standalone Flash builder

Hi
This should be easy, but installing SVN on the Standalone FB on the Mac OS X 10.5.8 fails! I had to install a newer version of SVN (you can get a nice packaged binary from here ) then you can use Help->install new Software ->http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x add new software.
If you dont have Mylyn installed and I dont then you uave to uncheck Sublcipse intergration for Mylyn and Subversion Revsion Graph.
Adobe Please ship with SVN pre installed nobody uses CVS anymore!
Richard

You don't mean subversion, you mean a subversion plugin. Subclipse? Or the other one (I forget the name)?
Anyway this is how it has always been for SVN + Flex Builder (or Flash Builder, meh), you have to deselect a few things, but it works fine when you do so. You don't need Mylyn integration if you don't use Mylyn anyway, right? (Good call not installing that magic trash btw.)
How did you try to install it? In my interweb-disconnected environment I always have to install from an 'archive site'. Or did you do the remote site/download (I assume)? I'll be trying this one at home (interweb-enabled environment) this weekend.
Installing an SVN plugin by default is a nice idea but you should really talk to the Eclipse team about that (and/or Subclipse people). (Of course this would only help with FB 5.) FB is just going off of what Eclipse provides for free, CVS integration being one of those.

Migrating the plugin to flash builder

Hi,
I have developed a plugin for flex builder and was using *.editor.mxml in my java code.
When I try installing the plugin it says the editor.mxml is a dependent package and not available.
If I have to refactor the code for flash builder what class should I refer to use MXMLEditor?
This is urgent, So experts kindly jumpin and help me.
Thanks in advance.

Tom-
My first piece of advice would be to actually do this using HTML/CSS/JS (jQuery). There are some incredible plugins for jQuery that will give you some great results. With that said....
Have you looked at http://chrisgriffith.wordpress.com/2010/12/20/creating-lightbox-galleries-with-flash-catal yst/ ? It might be easier that what you are trying to do. However, with 50 images you are going to run into the 20 state limit. Meaning you are going to have to nest assets. Without seeing the design, it is hard to advice how you should cluster your images.

Data Model plugin for Flash Builder 4

Hello there!
I've just watched a video tut on Youtube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1aWeoTV63M) on how to work with Flash Bulder + LC Data Services and he mentions a plug-in to add this option (Data Model) to Flash Builder.
I looked around on Adobe's website and found two download links, both for Eclipse, with lots of jar files.
Sorry, I don't get it!
Please, where do I get the right plug-in file and how do I install it in Flash Builder?
Thank you!
Marcos

Same here. Modeler plugin for Helios, Eclipse 3.6, Flash Builder 4.5 would be great.

VSS Plugin for Flash Builder 4?

Hello,
Does anyone know which VSS Plugin is available for Flash Builder 4?
I tried googling, but in vain.
Please help!
Thanks,
Tanu

Finally found the elusive JDT from Galileo Repository - http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo/
Installation steps below:
Installing Visual SourceSafe plug-in for Eclipse:
1) Download the Eclipse VSS plugin from: http://sourceforge.net/projects/vssplugin/
2) Extract the zip file. Watch out for the duplicate folder (folder-within-folder) when you extract, you do not want this.
3) Copy the folder “org.vssplugin_1.6.2″ to your Flash Builder 4 plugin folder [“C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\plugins”].
This needs the Java Development Tools. Get it from Galileo:
1) Open Flash Builder 4 (works for Premium too!)
2) Help > Install New Software…
3) At the top of the dialog, click “Add…” to add an update site URL
4) Specify any name and this URL http://download.eclipse.org/releases/galileo/ and press OK.
5) In the table of features, expand “Web, XML and Java EE Development” and select “Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools” [Eclipse Java EE Developer Tools 3.1.1.v200908101600-7_7EGrjFQRwRb4P511ebObS5XZhq]
6) Finish the wizard
7) Restart FB4
8) Now right click your project in Package Explorer > Team > Share, you will be able to see “VSS Configuration Wizard”.

Shiyaz

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
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/actionscript/learning.html
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/as3/learn/index.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.

Use native plugins with Flash Builder 4.5?

Hello,
Is it possible to extend Flash Builder 4.5 to have native plugins?
My use case is: we have developed SDKs for both iOS and Android where we have extensive signal processing implemented in C. On Android we use JNI to access and run the native code. That's done for performance reasons since real time is a requirement.
Some other tools like Appcelerator Titanium support native modules (e.g. http://wiki.appcelerator.org/display/guides/Module+Developer+Guide+for+iOS)
Is it possible to do the same with FlashBuilder? Or the only way is to develop in ActionScript? What are the benchmarks for typical video, audio signal processing (e.g. through classical domain example (filtering))?
Thanks!
Greg

Hi,
Flash Builder 4.5 serial number will not work directy in Flash Builder 4.7. You can use FB 4.5 key in upgrade scenario (upgradation from FB 4.5 to FB 4.7).
Please use the Flash Builder 4.7 serial number provided at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/entitlement/index.cfm?e=labs_flashbuilder4-7 for serialing Flash Builder 4.7.

Error when installing SAP gateway in Flash Builder 4.6

I installed Flash Builder 4.6 but I am getting an error installing the SAP add-on. it says org.maven.ide.eclipse missing. I am running this as admin.

Ok, I seemed to have found a solution/workaround for the error.
After importing the Day 2 starter projects, I did not exit and restart Flash Builder. After exiting/restarting Flash Builder, I can now edit the .mxml files without the annoying "Finding occurrences" errors.

Hi,
Looks as if you have your home folder on VMWare mapped back to the host OS drive, and that's triggering the initial failure in the log you posted. There's a faulty assumption in our installer's home folder logic that you've encountered, where it thinks your home folder is one level above your Documents folder, though we know that's not always true.
Here's a workaround you could try:
- Back up your Documents folder for safe keeping (\\vmware-host\Shared Folders\Documents)
- create a new folder tree named \\vmware-host\Shared Folders\home\Documents. The folder in the middle doesn't need to be named "home", you can call it anything you want, but there needs to be a new folder in the middle. Make sure you have write access to that home folder, as well as to its Documents subfolder.
- in VMWare Windows, reconfigure your User settings, moving your "My Documents" location down to the one created below \home\.
That last step varies a little, depending on which version of Windows you're running. On Win7 you can do it this way:
- in your user home folder (\Users\yourUserName) locate the My Documents icon, and right-click it
- choose Properties
- in the "Location" tab, click Move, and then choose the \\vmware-host\Shared Folders\home\Documents fodler you created earlier on your VMWare host
On Vista, you can right-click the Documents icon in your Start Menu, choose Properties, and from there on it's about the same as on Win7.
On WinXP it looks slightly different:
- right-click your My Documents icon (often on the desktop for convenience), and select Properties
- the tab you want is named "Target" on WinXP, and then you can click Move to relocate it to the same location described earlier.
After moving your Documents location this way, I would reboot first, and then make sure any old copies of FB4 are completely removed before re-installing. I just tested this out on my own VMWare machine (Vista), and it worked here, so with any luck it will work there too.
Let me know how it goes,
-Chris
P.S. We'll be fixing this problem in the next release, but can only offer this workaround for now. Thanks for bearing with us.
