Actionscript 3 :: Set Up Flex Documents And Environment In TextMate
Apr 2, 2011
I have been trying to find solutions to this everywhere and cannot find any concise, clear instructions on how to set up Flex and Actionscript properly on TextMate. That is, I have the bundles but in terms of setting shell environments etc so that you can compile with ANT, find documentation for keyword (Reference Doc) within the app. For the latter ,when i try and do that it says no documentation found.
My shell env stuff is as follows:
TM_FLEX_PATH /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder Burrito/sdks/flex_sdk_4.5.0.17689 TM_FLASH_HELP /Users/doronkatz/langRef (this is where i have the as doc zip file i downloaded)

I am being very hard headed and determined that I am going to give Textmate a solid try for my actionscript and flex projects. Work on the bundle has been a little lacking but what has been developed so far is pretty great. I have run into some slight issues but able to figure them out and get things set up pretty well and I have already dug in and started customizing the snippets to suit my needs.
One thing that I have not been able to fix, figure out or find a straight answer for is regarding working with MXML files. AutoComplete for Actionscript files seems to work great but I don't seem to get the same result when I am editing Actionscript inside the script block in a MXML file.

I am wondring if anyone has a good resource for opening existing Flex projects that where created in Flex / Flash Builder and run them using the TextMate bundle for Flex and Actionscript projects.
Basically I just want to know if I can walk into an existing project and configure this easily or am I pretty much stuck with using Eclipse ?

i don't know how to say that in technical terms. and i think this is the reason to why i cant get good answer from Google.i have xampp on my local winxp machine. i use it for developing websites locally then upload these files to my clients shared hosting accounts.
the problem that in 2 years i have always found differences between how xampp works and how the web server work.some code work locally but dont remotely and the opposite. also flash behave differently on xampp than the remote web server.is there is a way i can get the server configuration and use it with xampp like get the server php.ini and use it with xampp?

i apologize if this post is redundant. i'm searching unsuccessfully for recent, step-by-step instructions on how to set up ActionScript 3, Flex 4.5 and AIR 2.6 with TextMate on Mac OS X. i've found several posts concerning required bundles, but most of the threads are a few years old in addition to having convoluted, sparse instructions for setting up. it seems that auto-complete and .swc files are supported, which is great. in addition to instructions i'm also very interested in learning about what isn't supported and other common pitfalls.
i've been familiarizing myself with TextMate's UI and it's amazing. i would much rather use it than Flash Builder / Eclipse, or even Flash Professional. one last question - i understand that it's possible to set up our own keyboard shortcuts to compile with MXMLC and write the .swf to disk. is it possible to have the .swf auto open in Flash Player Debugger after it is compiled. essentially, i'd like to continue using Command+Enter shortcut for testing movies in Flash Professional to build and launch since i would certain have a difficult time adjusting to new muscle memory.

I did some work that used Flex datagrids previously. It was smooth for the users and developers alike.
In my current project, I have to implement the same grids but not using Flex / Flash.
I have taken a look at extJS and YUI but they don't seem to measure up.
Are there other packages I should be looking at ?

We have an AIR client which talks to a WAMP server. We store documents.One of the customer requirement is: they want to their website users to view the documents stored in the AIR application. It should be a read only access. The users will not have our air client installed on their machines. All they do is to check the customer's website.

I have an air application that loads a swf ( built in flex ) , this swf loads moduls and basicaly my air application is a testing environment for this swf .
when i run it in flex environment ( eclipse ) it runs fine , when i run it from my programs ( as an air program ) it gets stuck , what i was thinking is that it has to do with security issues because it gets stuck when my main swf try to loads the moduls .

I'm building a Flex/AIR application that connects to a remote server, the URL of which changes depending on the environment (development/production, and possibly others). For now, this URL parameter is hardcoded in my root application MXML file but it means I have to change it everytime I build my app for a different environment.Is there a way to externalize such a parameter so that when Flash Builder automatically builds my app (in development mode), it uses the development URL

Are there any differences implementing Flex application security in a clustered Java environment (such as Oracle Application Server/OC4J or a JBoss cluster) vs a single application server environment? (And/or does it depend on the specific environment software?)
What considerations are there in a situation where you need to authenticate with LDAP (AD) and store user access information in a database (ex. USER table containing username + permissions/roles info)? Any differences between Blaze DS and Granite DS?

I'm having a problem with the Toggle Comment command ("Comment Line / Selection") in TextMate for Actionscript 2 (I know, I know). I've tried completely stripping the language set down to isolate the issue, and tried walking through the Ruby, both to no avail. My issue is that the command insists on using block comments for comment toggling (⌘ + /) and doesn't respect when I add a preferences file to change TM_COMMENT_MODE. I even tried using this simple preference:
{ shellVariables = (
{ name = 'TM_COMMENT_START';
value = '// ';
},
);
}
but no luck. I'm hoping that someone who speaks Ruby much better than myself (ie. at all) can find a simple fix for this. You can reproduce in any (recent) install of TextMate by creating a new actionscript 2 file and trying to ⌘ + / a section of code (or even a line). Contrast to a JS file which will use a line comment. Copy the "Comments" snippet from JavaScript to Actionscript bundles, and the problem will persist.

i usually write my code with textmate.
a custom command for testing the proj directly in flash is:
echo 'document.testMovie();' > /tmp/fc.jsfl
open -a /Applications/Adobe Flash CS5/Adobe Flash CS5.app /tmp/fc.jsfl
what about the flash standalone player?
echo 'document.testMovie();' > /tmp/fc.jsfl
open -a /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4/player/mac/Flash Player.app /tmp/fc.jsfl
works great but it only open the player...it doesn'pass the file to it.

I'm trying to test a custom Flex 4 skinnable component, using the FlexUnit UIImpersonator class. If I run my tests from a FlashBuilder Spark only project everything works fine. If I try to test from a project with the mx component set on the classpath I get a "getElementIndex not available in non Flex 4 projects" error.Can I unit test spark components in FlexUnits visual test environment while still having the mx component set on the classpath?
UIImpersonator delegates it's method calls to a "testEnvironment".The implementation used for this "testEnvironment" is decided by the VisualTest EnvironmentBuilder class and the FlexEnvironmentBuilder class. If the FlexEnvironmentBuilder class can find the "mx.core.Container" on the classpath it returns a MX environment, else a Spark environment. Only the spark environment has valid implementations for Flex 4 relevant method calls on the UIImpersonator - like the addElement method.

In Flash CS3 when you did Modify/Document it allowed you to type in a document Title and Description which were metadata searchable by internet search engines. According to the book "Brilliant Flash CS4" this is still possible in CS4, but I think they have removed the option, and the book is wrong. add metadata for searching to FLA documents or is this now gone?

I have a dillema with Flash, and that is using more than 1 external document... Over the years I've tried using the include statement WHICH worked in as2 but now as we have progressed into as3 it seems to cause more and more errors! Why is Adobe screwing up actionscript? Back when Macromedia owned it everything was sooo much simpler than it is now
Right now I am making a Flash Game which is almost finished and I'm already using the external document for the GameController, I've added a brightness setting for portable users to make it brighter, I borrowed code off a kind coder and I'm now responsible for converting the external document into the actions keyframe...I used the include 'Main.as' statement and I get this error, packes cannot be nested.....is it possible to put the full code in my keyframes actions layer instead?

i'm trying to create a mix and match clothing application using flash for a school project but am having trouble with xml documents. Using an old gallery tutorial on the site, i found it was quite easy to load up one xml document, excerpt of code below.
I thought it would be as simple as copying all the code and changing the variable names to load a second xml document but i find when i run the code, that only the last xml document in the code loads
function loadXML(loaded) {
if (loaded) {

Well what i want to do is a background in an internet source page. You know that ur deskopt background can be a web page right ? well i want to create such a page with dreamweaver which i can do and insert some flash button that i would be able to click on and open my folders such as My Images, My Documents, My computer... not open a file but the folder itself.

We're working with a product called ProForm to create online courses that are Flash-based. It's a pretty cool product, created by Rapid Intake and using ActionScript 2 as the basis.
The problem we're seeing is that when we try to use this method to connect directly to Office documents, the links fail to open the documents in Internet Explorer. When using Firefox, they work fine, and soon after clicking the link the user receives a dialog asking if they wish to save or open the document. This is the behavior which we expected in IE, and which one can achieve by holding the CTRL button and clicking the link (and don't ask me how that was figured out, 'cuz I don't know). But when just clicking the link in IE, a browser window briefly pops up, then the thing disappears and nothing else happens - no file opens, no dialog appears, nothing.

Just fired up Flash CS5 to a surprise. My screen-based SWF from years ago will no longer load. how does one achieve the equivelant of nested screens in CS5 now? I have outer chrome that's common to all screens and switch between nested screens to show different shared form screens that get populated with content from a database. Short of duplicating the shared content over and over, how do you get the layered effect I'm after? Does everyone simply jump around on the master timeline? Or does CSS play a role here?

My team and I are considering switching to using the "Flash CS5 Uncompressed Document (*.xfl)" option in Flash CS5 based on the assumption that it will allow better collaboration and conflict resolution when working in a version-controlled (SVN) environment. We would like to avoid the common situation of irresolvable conflicts when multiple people edit an FLA. at least in the initial release of Flash CS5: [URL] Has anyone had success or failure with this approach? Is this a favourable or detrimental change in workflow?

I am a beginner when it comes to Flash and Actionscript. I know how to create a few things using Flash, but when it comes to programming in actionscript, I am clueless. I work for a local government agency; my boss and I want to simulate a digital signage system using Flash.
I have a document that changes weekly, I want to load it in a Flash file that will display it as is and autoscroll it and loop back to the beginning. The file itself is created by a secretary in different office. We want her to save the file in a designated folder and it will automatically apear on screen. (does any of this make sense?)
I was able to set up an application that uses xml and css. I had to go through the microsoft word document copy and paste it to an xml editor which was 14 plus pages and add xml tags. I was able to get it to show up online, but I could not find code in actionscript 2 that uses autoscroll.
