Porting the Flex Project with Extension Builder 2.1 to CC(2014)

Hello,
I am trying to port the Flex project developed in Flash Builder 4.6 with Extension builder 2.1, to InDesign CC (2014).
As per the SDK help it mentions I can use the same environment mentioned above to port the project. But when I try it is giving error " This extension cannot be installed, it requires InDesign version in range of inclusively between 9.0 and 9.9.
Do I need to set anything before compiling the plugin for CC(2014)? Or do I need to port in some other environment? If yes where can I get the details of other environment?
Thanks for the help in advance.
Regards
Farzana.

You want to use your flex project in a CC2014 application? If yes, you have to rewrite your complete project to a HTML5 extension as Flex support was dropped in CC2014 (and all upcoming releases).
"Flash/Flex/AIR extensions run in APE (Adobe Player for Embedded). This product is deprecated, and, as stated above, will be removed from Creative Cloud products, starting in the middle of 2014. This means that developers must migrate their extensions to HTML5 if they want to continue to support them in Creative Cloud (CC) applications. Flash-based extensions will continue to run as before in versions CS5.x and CS6 of their host applications."

InDesign Panels created with Extension Builder 3 get collapsed upon relaunch of InDesign

InDesign Panels created with Extension Builder 3 get collapsed upon relaunch of InDesign and you have to corner drag them open to see the panel. This bug is very annoying. Does anyone know a work around?

I found how to fix this.
There is a hidden XML file called manifest.xml located in you project folder here:
../.staged-extension/CSXS/manifest.xml
In that file there is a section called <Geometry>
By default there is an entry for size. You can add sections for min and max panel size values.
<MaxSize>
     <Height>enter max height size here</Height>
     <Width>enter max width size here</Width>
</MaxSize>
<MinSize>
     <Height>enter min height size here</Height>
     <Width>enter min width size here</Width>
</MinSize>

Is there a way of working collaboratively on a flex project with a small project group?

Is there a way of working collaboratively on a flex project with a small project group?
I am part of a small group of developers who wish to work on a single flex project together. Is there a way to set up flex so that the project can be developed by multiple people at the same time. I have seen one thread out on the internet about working locally and then uploading to SVn but this is not an option in this case.
Any ideas.
Many thanks in advance
Dave

I would say that rushing into development without a source-control system will cost you more in the long-run. If your organisation is serious about developing software it then it needs to invest in the necesary infrastructure, so you should get that process kicked-off as soon as possible.
In the interim you could set-up a source control server on one developer's machine or commandeer a spare machine to use as a temporary source control server. Just make sure you have it backed-up regularly. Or you could use one of the online source control services; many will support private repositories for a small fee.

How to set "Output folder" and "Outputfolder URL" in Flasbuilder 4b1 for combined Java/Flex project with WTP?

Hi,
how can I set the "Output folder" and "Output folder URL" in Flasbuilder 4b1?
In Flexbuilder 3 I can do this under Project Properties/"Flex Build Path"
Under "Flex Build Path" in F4b1 I can see the settings, but they are not editable.
A message says "The output folder settings for server projects are on the Flex Server Property Page" but under "Flex Server" there is nothing (yet) I can change/set?!
Is there a workaround?
Thanks for any pointers!
Martin Zach

Yes I'm using Flash Builder b1, build 235740. But your settings panel looks different to mine (see attached).
Just a thought. When you created the Flex project, did you choose a server technology at that point already? I just remember from Flex Builder 3 that if you didn't choose a server technology when you created the Flex project then it was a pain in the ** to add it later. It involved editing the .flexProperties file manually if I remember correctly.

Debug Multiple Flex Projects with shared PHP project

Hi ! I have a problem debugging Flex/PHP applications.
I have many Flex projects with a shared PHP project, so I need to set the the output folder to the Flex project's folder, not the PHP's project folder.
But it doesn't work, I mean the application works great, the PHP are executed fine, the AS3 code is debugged fine, but I can't debug PHP.
If I put the output folder to the PHP's project, then I can debug the PHP code too.
Please, can you tell me if it's possible to put the output folder to another folder than PHP's project???

Hi Steven,
Yes, I considered this option too.
But if someone creates in the database a column for a table that belongs to "Project A", when I publish "Project B" the generated script tries to remove the column since my copy of "Project A" on my solution is not the latest
version.
I think I'll just have to handle this. Like, organizing with people when and ho can publish to the databases.
Maybe the best practice is to developers use their own LocalDB while developping and only one person publish to database on the development server.

Does the flex project is heavy ?

hi everybody!
for me is very intersting develop with flex. I like!
I have 3 project with flex in company I work.
I use flex with php.
But now my boss is asking me about how Flex is weighed .
One other day he tried to access the site with an iPhone and it failed.
And he said he tried to connect with a super fast internet and the site took too long to load.
Does the flex project is heavy ?
Are there ways to make the flex project more light?
thank you for you attention

It's not about being heavy or light,
It's about Steve Jobs hating ADOBE, and how he thinks ADOBE programmers are lazy.
It's about him going off on how ADOBE has a closed system while APPLE is the epitomy of being closed, from hardware to software.
Good thing when he goes on a diatribe no one listens, heaven forbid all the mindless sheep who buy apple products were to read that Adobe and Flash sucks they may start to believe it.
Steve Jobs put it nicely though, FLASH is made for a Powerful PC. He should have added that's why it runs on Android and Windows 7 Phones but not on a iPHONE, because Android && Windows7 > iPHONE.

Distributing the Flex SDK with another application

Hi,
I understand that the Flex 2 SDK is a free download from
Adobe, but am I also allowed to redistribute it?
For example, if I write a program where I need to generate
swfs dynamically, can I distribute the Flex SDK with the program,
so that all I need to do is generate SWF files and invoke the
mxmlc?
Thanks,
Roy

The name of the self-signed cert that is generated in the "Create the APK package file" step is sampleCert.pfx, but the name of the file in the next step is sampleCert.p12. This should be fixed.

Photoshop cc 2014 with Extension Builder 3 not working properly.

I can't get even the most basic panel to work in CC 2014. I have created a Default Extension Builder project in eclipse. I then follow this instructions Adobe Extension Builder and Creative Cloud 2014, but when I try to debug it, it doesn't work. The panel shows up (with nothing in it) but says "Cannot complete command because the extension could not be loaded."
I have created an extension for CC, then changing everything according to the link above, tried to start it in CC 2014 I get the same error, even though it worked in CC.
Does anyone know how I can fix this problem or what is causing it?
If not, could anyone provide me with an empty panel project made in Extension Builder that works for you, so that I can maybe figure out what the differences are.

Mattias

Flex Project with Java

Hi,
I want to create a Flex Project which uses Java EE Server.
This is my requirement...I have a login Page, Register Page...when I Register the data should be sent to Database Table. when I login with existing username and password, It should validate from the Database and then a new page opens up which shows any info.
Can anybody tell me, how this can be achieved??
Thanks for the Help...

You'll probably use the Flex RemoteObject to connect to your J2EE app.

Debug the Flex Application with tomcat Server

Hi,
I have the adobe flex builder plugin with my eclipse and I created a Flex project which is running on my Tomcat Server. Now, I would like to run my application in debug mode and I could not see the debug perspective. But, if my application is not configured with tomcat server, I can the debug perspective in my eclipse.
Do we need to do any additional settings for viewing the debug perspective for Flex Applications which is configured in tomcat Server?

You can't debug an app on the server, at least not using the debug perspective. Troubleshooting deployed apps if far more difficult.
