I have installed Flex Builder 3 and Flash Player 10 on my machine.
I don't know where the trace output goes because I just don't see it (I tried debug and output windows).
Also the breakpoints don't hit.
i am using Flex builder 4.5 and my problem is this that this code doos not work, when i used trace(event.target)i get following in result in console, deleteme.ApplicationSkin2._ ApplicationSkin_Group1.contentGroup.VGroup5.button1.And if i replace this long line in 'if' statement code works.(deleteme is the project name). Dont you think it should only say button1 instead of this all long line with all hierarchy , if that is the case then how we can shortend it?[code]
View 1 RepliesI've recently bough Flex Builder 3 and I am completely dissatisfied with its reluctance to debug. It manages to debug a few times, but after that, it just doesn't want to "connect to the debugger".
View 5 RepliesI am running on Windows XP and recently updated Flash Player from v9 to v10.1. And Now, in the Debug Console under Flex Builder, I am getting a lot of debug statements(I think that is assembly). Below is an example, of what I get:

View 2 RepliesI've noticed that when debugging using the eclipse flash builder plugin, one cannot drill in to the key set / values of a flash.utils.Dictionary in the Variables view. Even after selecting the "Show Logical Structure" button. Does anyone else run into this issue? Is there anyway I could see the see all of the keys / values when debugging (apart from writing a loop to do this or manually testing possible keys in the Expressions view)?
View 1 RepliesI am trying to use Flex builder for the first time in years. I haven't used the "Run Application" option before, and when I do that now it tells me "Errors exist in required projects" and whether I should proceed. I would like to debug those errors. Does anyone know how I can do that? PS: When I click the "Debug" button, it does exactly the same thing. I don't see error output in the console views.
View 2 RepliesWhen I set a breakpoint and debug my application, Flash Builder 4 is not displaying static variables within the variables window. I'm using flash builder 4 to execute flex unit tests on one of my AS3 classes. I set a static variable within the [Before] function, which is accessed in each of the tests. I've set a breakpoint within one of the tests to see why it is failing, but I notice that static variables don't appear when I expand the 'this' object within the variables window. (In this case my static variable is the only variable associated with the class, so the only object in the variables window is the "this" object). How to make static variables appear in the variables window?
View 2 RepliesI've been playing with prototype a bit and I've noticed that either it isn't as static as it should be or that some functions are protected from altering, or that in some cases the prototype actually extends a function. For example, I was trying to modifiy the global trace function to output the current time of a trace action, something like this :
Code:trace("lulu"); // output 12:48:17.286 lulu I DID achieve something close to it, but it seems that I haven't actually modified the global trace function, but rather it's "_root" counterpart,

I've set up FlexUnit in my app, I want to debug a test using trace, but im not sure how to get flexunit to traceto the flashlog file. Here's part of my test task in ant, I thought the 'localtrusted' property would help, but it doesnt seem to. In my logs I get the testcases only, none of my traces which are inside my tests.

When a compile and run the application, the output is entirely blank. The HTML wrapper page does contain the flash application, but the content is blank, even though I have a simple label component on the stage.Also I noticed that when I right-click on the flash object, the default context menu appears, displaying the "Zoom In", "Zoom Out", "Show All", etc..options which are removed from the application by default.If you are interested, here is my code, as easy as it gets. :)

New AS3/Flash Builder user here. I'm debugging an AS3 project using Flash Builder 4.5, and debug version of Flash plug-in in Firefox. I'm using a trace() command, but it's not outputting anything in the Console window of Flash Builder (is that where it's supposed to place stuff?). However, I'm wondering why the trace() command is even needed because the Variables tab in the debug perspective contains all the variable values anyway. Is the trace() command redundant or otherwise useful somehow in this environment, or is it intended for command line debugging, etc. (non-Flash Builder environment).
View 1 RepliesCan I configure Flash Builder 4 to build into different folders? Something like: build applications files into "folder a" and modules files into "folder b"?
View 1 RepliesSo the issue is that whenever I run the flash movie, the display in the browser (Chrome) ends up being like 30% larger than the browser is when fully maximized. In reality, it should be running in a 800x800px environment. I've tried messing with the stage size and doing things like setting it to FULL_SCREEN and NORMAL and that had no effect. However, attempting to compile the project through the command line with the mxmcl (although it gives different errors atm) show me that the window is properly sized at 800x800px, so it is obvious that the flash builder is the one that resizes it.
View 2 RepliesI've built a simple application in Flex Builder 3 with some trace() calls. It's an "ActionScript Project", no MXML or AIR involved. I don't run the app from within Eclipse, I just open the generated html file with Firefox.
I'm using the Flash Player 10 Debug version. I've correctly set mm.cnf to log trace output, following the official instructions. A flashlog.txt file is generate in the appropriate location.
Despite all that, trace output is not shown in the log file. What am I doing wrong?
(I suspect it's a compiler option, but I can find no such option in the project options in FlexBuilder)
(If I do run the app from Eclipse, by pressing F11, I can see trace output but only inside Eclipse, not in the log file)
For some reason trace does not work on when I put trace into my ActionScript files. I use the Flex SDK to build Adobe Air applications. I am currently on Flex SDK 4.5.1 and Adobe Air 2.7.I have checked that idl is not running, can't find a trace of it ( pun not intended ).I have also added mm.cgf to ~/Library/Application Support/Macromedia, that hasn't worked either.

But it still doesn't work. Provided the code, that by some weird chance it could be the app.
I've developed web services in C++ and have implemented the ability to provide a base 64 encoded string to send files with other meta data. While I have successfully decoded the string when the encoded data is a text file, images and other binary files are not decoding correctly. Can you point me to a C++ library or implementation of base64 decode that works with Adobe Flex Base64encoder? What RFC does the Flex encode/decode implement?
View 1 RepliesI'm teaching myself ActionScript and the book I'm reading just got into input text capabilities. The book shows me how to link input text to a variable and output that text to the output window using trace. My question is: how can I display the text that the user input onto the actual movie. For example... if I wanted the visitor to type their name into the input text box and click Submit and then a phrase shows up with their name such as "Hold on Name, my site will be done soon." How do I reference that variable and have it actually display in my movie?

View 4 RepliesI'm working on an Adobe Flash Builder 4.5 iPad application. I have only a humble 13" MacBook to work with. I am being aggravated by the problem of debugging my application in the Flashbuilder's iPad simulator. The FB simulator screen is almost the same physical size as a real iPad, which is too big to fit on a 13" MacBook. Is there some setting in Flash Builder 4.5 that would scale the iPad simulator to fit the available screen real estate?
View 2 RepliesI just updated my AIR runtime to 3.0 and noticed that my AIR application doesn't work anymore. So I tried to debug it it with Flash Builder, but when I run it there, everything works just fine. So I uninstalled the AIR runtime completely but noticed that I can execute my AIR app within Flash Builder still just fine. So the AIR runtime used within Flash Builder seems to be a different one than the systemwide installed AIR runtime. How Do I chose within Flash Builder which runtime to use and how do I update this runtime?

View 1 RepliesI'm building a networked client app with Flash Builder, and would like to be able to set environmental variables or #define's such as server's hostname and port. For debugging purposes I want to connect the client with different servers (and for other devs too). In C/C++ I'd define TEST_PORT=8888 or something in the IDE or build environment, that way I wouldn't need to commit a settings file along with the client. But not sure what's the standard for Flash Builder.
