Using CS3 Libraries in flex builder

Hi,
Im fairly new to Flex and im a starting out with flex builder
3. I am trying to add the CS Libraries as I would have done via
Preferences->Actionscript->ActionScript 3.0 Settings in Flash
CS3 so that projects can reference these packages.
I have complie errors when using import
mx.transitions.easing.*; and I cant seem to get flex to reference
that libray.
thanks for your help

thanks Greg,
Followed your instructions and added the path D:/Program
Files/Adobe/Adobe Flash CS3/en/Configuration/ActionScript
3.0/Classes/playerglobal.swc but still get the same compile error
1172: Definition mx.transitions.easing could not be found.
thanks

Flash CS3 vs. Flex Builder 2

Here's the $64,000 question: should we be developing in Flash
CS3 or should we shift over to Flex Builder 2? I maintain that AS
3.0 is a pain in the proverbial, but I've been researching and
finding as much help as possible online about it, and I've found
that by and large people are using Flex Builder 2 as the basis of
tutorials about AS 3.0. Does anyone have an official slant on this
question? Should we abandon Flash for Flex? Will it help? Will it
mitigate the difficulties non-programmers are experiencing with AS
3.0 - or as I call it simply ***? Would I be getting more responses
to my *** questions if I post them over in the *** forum under Flex
Builder?
Any thoughts on this matter would be most welcome, thank
you.

Beatie3,

Sorry about that ... some days are crazier than others. :-/

I don't know that I'd call it a luxury, really. Work is
work. ;) As
you might imagine, though, Flex Builder 2 provides a number
of scripting
improvements over the Actions panel (there's really no
comparison; if you've
tried them both, the Actions panel barely feels useful) and
the Flex
framework offers significantly more UI Components. Ideally,
if the pocket
book allows it, using both applications is the killer setup.

When you say imported, you mean dynamically loaded (loaded
at runtime),
right? Otherwise, I'm confused. The Flash IDE itself allows
you to
determine the quality of imported JPGs. In ActionScript 3.0
... are you
talking about the Stage.quality property?

Not sure what might be tripping you up, actually. The
coordinate grid
is the same. Horizontally, higher numbers move toward the
right;
vertically, higher numbers move toward the bottom. That's the
same as it's
been.

Having heard what you're after, I just started a quick
experiment from
scratch. Here's my version, below. Note: I've made no effort
to optimize
my code. This is just a first draft to achieve a blue line
segment with
green dots on each end that becomes a black line segment when
the mouse
lifts.
var startX:Number;
var startY:Number;
var canvas:Sprite = new Sprite();
addChild(canvas);
canvas.stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,
mouseDownHandler);
canvas.stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP,
mouseUpHandler);
function mouseDownHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
startX = mouseX;
startY = mouseY;
var dot:Sprite = new Sprite();
dot.name = "dotStart";
dot.graphics.beginFill(0x00FF00);
dot.graphics.drawCircle(mouseX, mouseY, 5);
dot.graphics.endFill();
canvas.addChild(dot);
dot = new Sprite();
dot.name = "dotEnd";
dot.graphics.beginFill(0x00FF00);
dot.graphics.drawCircle(0, 0, 5);
dot.graphics.endFill();
canvas.addChild(dot);
canvas.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
enterFrameHandler);
function enterFrameHandler(evt:Event):void {
var dot:DisplayObject = canvas.getChildByName("dotEnd");
dot.x = mouseX;
dot.y = mouseY;
canvas.graphics.clear();
canvas.graphics.lineStyle(1, 0x0000FF);
canvas.graphics.moveTo(startX, startY);
canvas.graphics.lineTo(mouseX, mouseY);
function mouseUpHandler(evt:MouseEvent):void {
canvas.removeEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,
enterFrameHandler);
canvas.removeChild(canvas.getChildByName("dotStart"));
canvas.removeChild(canvas.getChildByName("dotEnd"));
canvas.graphics.clear();
canvas.graphics.lineStyle(2, 0x000000);
canvas.graphics.moveTo(startX, startY);
canvas.graphics.lineTo(mouseX, mouseY);
There's a lot of repeated code there, and this isn't how I'd
leave the
above in an actual project, but by spilling out a rough cut
like this, I'm
hoping it gives you something to work with -- showing the
mechanics of how
this might be done.

How to use fla file in Flex Builder 3?

Is there a way to do it?

I got these files also. But how to use Flash's fl.transitions. package with Flex.
Flash and Flex are doing transitions very differently.
In Flex, for example,
Define a transition effect: <mx:WipeLeft id="wl"/>
Use it: <mx:Canvas id="home" ... showEffect="wl">
Flash uses TransitionManager:
import fl.transitions.*;
import fl.transitions.easing.*;
var myTM:TransitionManager = new TransitionManager(my_mc);
myTM.startTransition({type:Wipe, direction:Transition.OUT, duration:3, easing:Strong.easeOut, startPoint:1});
How to define the MovieClip - "my_mc"? Both Flex and Flash have flash.dispaly.MoiveClip. Are they the same?

Flex Builder 3 new j2ee project using LDS

Hello
I am using Eclipse Europa With flex builder v3 beta 2. My
application server is apache geronimo v2.
When i deploy my ear file into geronimo i recieve an
exception: org.apache.geronimo.common.DeploymentException: Could
not parse TLD file at file in /WEB-INF/lib/flex-bootstrap-jsp.jar.
This is a flex jar. it is caused by caused by
org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.piccolo.io.IllegalCharException: Illegal
XML character: 0x3
Can any one help me . as i have tried to view this file and i
have found no illegal character.
I think this might be an issue with geronimo . but does Flex
support geronimo.
Thnks in advance for any help

I'd love to help because I know how frustrating it is to get
it working. Unfortunately, I run CF locally and IIS as the web
server. However, maybe my settings will spark something that you
can use:
1
2. myFirstFlex
3. C:\Documents and Settings\[useraccount]My
Documents\myFirstFlex
4. Web application/
5. Coldfusion/ColdFusion Remoting
6. Standalone
7. c:\coldfusion8
8. c:\inetpub\wwwroot
9.

is what works for me

Flex builder with AS3 project

Hi,
I am developing a Flash game using as3, I chose flex Builder with an AS3 project. Now I am thinking that if selecting the project to be a flex project instead of as3 project I would have a lot of flex functionality like a swf loader,preloaders and the popup manager etc. The graphic components would obviously have been made in flash and used through the swc (avoiding the heavy mxml components).
Need to know what other developers think of this approach.

You must include in library:
${FRAMEWORKS}/locale/{locale}

Upgrade from Flex Builder 3.1 to Flash Builder 4.5

I have several project in Flex Builder 3.1 now.
What is the best way to move them in Flash Builder 4.5? Can I just use the workspace from Flex Builder 3.1 in Flash Builder 4.5?
Is Flex 4.5 backward compatible at API level?

You should always have separate workspaces for separate versions of Flash Builder.
Flex 3 and Flex 4 have some large differences. You will probably want to spend some time reading about migrating by searching on Google. Here is a good place to start: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/articles/flex3and4_differences.html

Flash CS3 fl.* package cannot be used in Flex Builder 3

Hi,
I was very disappointed to find out that one cannot import
the fl.* package, which is available for flash CS3. I found a work
around by creating swc file and importing them, however it's
disappointing that flash CS3 would have such a major advantage over
Flex Builder 3 when building an Action Script 3.0 Application.
Best, E

I've looked over that sample.
Part of the problem is that I don't have access to
mx.effects. I think this is because that example is a Flex 3
Project and has a MXML file attributed to it. I opened a Flex 3
project and was able to access mx.effects - but my project is
different in that it's an ActionScript project - meaning, I opened
an ActionScript project in Flex Builder 3. Apperantly the
ActionScript projects don't have access to mx.effects.Tween. And
niether do they have access to fl.transitions.Tween. It's strange -
and I'm trying to find a way to access them by connecting the build
path to the Tween classes somehow.
My project preferences already have the fl.* folders in the
build path. It just still doesn't seem to work.

Use Flash CS3 component in Flex

As a bit of a n00b, this may be a stupid question...
If I were to get a component made for use with "Flash CS3",
once it's compiled to a swf & fla, is it entirely usable in
Flex [Builder] 3 ? Say I didn't want to re-skin it, and it was
fully programable via AS?
Is this a "it depends"? Is it a "absolutely, you just need
CS3 to compile it first"?
Thanks in advance,
AJ

I think you need to either use it as an as file or compile it
as a swc,
unless you want to load it into a swfloader.

Fireworks CS3 quit working after flex builder 3 uninstall

I recently installed flexbuilder 3 to give it a test run. After a few days I uninstalled it. Now when I try to use FW CS3 I can't. When I open an image the only tool tip that shows up in the work area is the hand. When I try to select a different tip or use a different tool it doesn't work.
To solve this I tried reinstalling the upgrade I purchased & downloaded a while ago (I purchased web prem upgrade for the mx 2004 suite.) and it doesn't work. I get the message "please insert Creative suite web premium" or something very similar. I dont have a disk. It was a download only and CS3 is installed already. I tried contacting support over the phone and all I got was some guy from india that I could barely understand and the eventual response that there is no download link to get the program. I already have the program....as a matter of fact I redownloaded it from my account page and I still get the same message.
I have 3 projects I'm trying to get done and I cant because fireworks isn't working.
Please help.
Thanks
After reading another thread that was fairly similar I opened it back up and now everything is working fine......... I don't get it. But problem solved. Just wish the phone support was better. That should really be fixed.

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.

Flex Builder 3 Beta 2 Expires early when using Flex 2 key, and new SDK

I was told to use my Flex 2 key to extend the Beta period for
Flex Builder 3, this worked, today it said I have 99 days left.
but When I installed the latest SDK and restarted Flex
Builder 3 Beta 2, it says it expires in 15 days.
If I put the original SDK back and restart it goes back to 99
days, so If I switch the SDKs while Eclipse is already loaded it
seems to stay at 99 days, so now before I start Eclipse I have to
move the orig SDK back, start Eclipse, then switch SDKs.
This does not make much sense to me, why does the SDK affect
the Builder Beta Period at all? is there a fix for this, I have a
project due but 31st, and I would be screwed if it dies before
then, I already have flex 2 but I cannot roll back as this project
relies on Flex Builder 3 Functionality.

I the probelm we are stating is that we DID enter our flex 2
key and it DID initially set the expire date out, but I needed to
use a later SDK and thats when the problem occured. without the
latest the ImageSnapshot.captureImage does not work at all for me,
so must use a later SDK. However this morning my Eclipse started
stating 96 days remaining and I am still using the latest SDK, so
no idea why it works sometimes and not others.

Calling Webservice defined in SAP R/3 in Flex builder using mx:Webservice

Hi All,
I am calling R/3 webservices in Flex builder using <mx:webservice> tag. but the wsdl is not accepting additional parameters like &, = ....
when I try to run this code Flex builder is generating an error
<mx:WebService id="ws" wsdl="http://localhost.com:8088/sap/bc/srt/rfc/sap/Z_SIMPLE_TEST_WS?sap-client=030&wsdl=1.1"
 useProxy="false"
 result="handleResult(event)"
 fault="handleFault(event)" showBusyCursor="true" >
and when I remove the sap-client=030& and =1.1 from the wsdl, the program gets executed, however SAP is calling client 010 as that is the default client.
I would appreciate if anyone can tell how to pass the parameter sap-client=030 in Flex.
Thanks,
Madhavi

its because of the & sign. instead use it like below it will work.
Z_SIMPLE_TEST_WS?sap-client=030&emp;wsdl=1.1
in the above line replace 'e' in emp with 'a' (amp)

Using Eclipse project definitions to build the Flex SDK

It would be great if someone from Adobe could post on the recommended usage of the Eclipse project definitions in the development/eclipse/ subdirectory of the 3.0.x trunk distribution. I would like to debug some compiler modifications that I am working on.
I saw Peter Farland demo this setup at 360Flex, but was unable to capture all the details of the Eclipse configuration that he discussed in his talk.
thanks!

If you go to the framework project’s properties, there is a section called Flex Library Compiler, you want to use a specific flex sdk (add a new sdk which points to the trunk, and use that) — you are probably building /against/ the wrong sdk, right code, wrong compiler.

Try changing the sdk for the framework lib project to trunk (you'll need to add a new flex sdk, name it whatever you want) -- it's in the project properties. It's using the wrong compiler.

I would probably prefer to work on the 3.0.x branch/tag as I hope to submit a patch or two but saw Joe mention that the project defs only existed in the trunk.
Searching Google for the oem error turns up lots of links about projects that had assets deleted and the build got confused but following the instructions on how to fix proved unsuccessful.

I always forget what that error means when it comes up -- though it's been ages since I've seen it last, literally.
Joe: Since you mention Java 1.5, I'm guessing the errors are in the asdoc package? Those should be turned off (read: turned into a warning) -- Eclipse is a little too persnickety about that particular error. There's a preference for this in the Java section under warnings and errors. It's turned off in the trunk dev projects. Otherwise, you should be able to run the compiler directly with no problems (okay, one more caveat: there's a class loader issue with the OEM, fixed in trunk if you look for my Java 1.5 checkin).
Ben: What is your setup? What are you building (Ryan mentions trunk, Joe mentions 30x), which Eclipse, which dev projects, did you build the sdk from the commandline first, etc.?
