Thanks for writing this down. Was having problems with SWC folders when they were under a src folder but moved them to their own swc folder and all works. As you say this worked fine in Flex builder 3 but not with Flash Builder.

Ok. When I have time, I will try blowing away all my projects and rebuilding them…

@adampasz, its almost a week now and in fact most of the things works just fine. I think the main issue was using the old flex projects / workspaces.

Hey, you didn’t even mention the new help system.

The “Some Class Does Not Exist” problem is *atrocious*. FB pretty much can’t deal with running multiple projects at once, when the user regularly opens and closes them. Depending on your needs, one can make a pretty good case for sticking with FB3 until Adobe releases a patch for some of these issues.

Your tip about using new workspaces is valid and is the recommended approach – I’ll get that added to our documentation/articles so that others don’t have similar issues.

Thanks,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,
thanks for your tips, I tried to install Aptana – did not worked, missing dependencies. But after some messing with plugins a lot of thing started to work! Even the Project Explorer got changed for Package Explorer where quick options for creating files works. I have updated the article, so you can see all steps to reproduce. Still got to figure out Aptana missing dependencies…

Hi,

Some comments on your Flash Builder issues:

- HTML Editor: You could add Aptana to your Flash Builder installation.

- Creating Files: Right click in package explorer, New > ActionScript class is still available. I’m not sure why you can’t see that – are you using FB standalone or as plug-in into Eclipse?

- Software update: Good feedback, we’ll consider providing a default location for a future release.

Thanks,
