View 2 RepliesI am trying to make the project build light by removing all the unused (mxml,xml and image ) files. Currently I am manually searching for each image and then removing the unused file. But is there a way such that we can get list of unused files automatically . I was trying to use the swfDump.jar from 4.0 sdk . But that dint work as it is working with projects that are build using flex sdk 4.0. I am currently using 3.2 .
View 3 RepliesIs there any way how to compile maven/flex project which does not contain any *.mxml? The flex project contains ActionScript classes only (i.e. "src/flex" directory contains *.as files only). My pom.xml is here:
<groupId>com.test</groupId>
<artifactId>test</artifactId>
<version>1.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<name>test</name>

I imported an .fxp project into a Flash Builder and then observed there are 5 .mxml files in the src/(default package) directory. Silly question -- how to run each of these five files?
Since I've named the project differently than any of the .mxml files, whenever I try to run something it uses the default (empty) .mxml file named after the project. Deleting that empty mxml file didn't help anything. I also tried to clean the project, but nothing changes (although I see the directories refresh with the same contents). There are no html files in the bin-debug directory.
There must be some simple way to run those .mxml files that I'm missing.
I'm creating some custom components and backing code. I've created a Flex library project in Flash Builder which compiles to a SWC. The problem is now that all my MXML files get compiled into classes in the default package, making the whole thing a big mess.Is there a way to set a package declaration for MXML files? After all it just gets translated into AS3 classes. This seems to work in regular Flex projects using a namespace declaration so I'm at a loss how that is supposed to work. The other option is building out all the components in AS3 which I'd like to avoid.
View 1 RepliesI have to make a project for school. It will be like a tutorial, but into an application. I already made a part of it in MXML and a bit of action script but I encountered a few problems that are over my newbie limits. So the Flex Builder 2 makes a SFW file, in the main folder of the "project". I want to make that SWF file my main executable file. I have a folder with some pics, and another folder with Action Script Files. The code lvl that I know atm is ABSOLUTE BEGINER... I don know how to make my SWF file have a specific name when I run it.Here is a picture of a training exercices that should make thing more clear:Some people told me that I should use a HexEditor and stuff. Is it ture(what u think?).
Next problem. I dont know how to make the Stage to be fix. I mean.. I dont want the stage to be resizeble. I tryed to change the stagescalemode but that wasn't it. I toke a look at the help files of Flex from the net, about the Resize action and SystemManegment, but I didn't find out what I wantend.

When you try to release the project, Flex gives me the following: Flash Builder program failed to publish the source code of the Project:
Unable to find the application file "betaProject4.mxml".
Could not find the application file "betaProject4.mxml".
Currently in a project of this file is not found, removed all of the bin-release, but something did not work.
I'm migrating a FlashBuilder project (actually a project I'm working on with FlexBuilder eclipse plugin on Linux) to use FDT. I managed to import the project, and make it aware of other projects it depends on.
However I get lots of compile errors for things that seem harmless (and used to compile). At least, for example :
<mx:SomeClass initialize="{this.init()}" ... >
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
[code]....
So, I get "unresolved function" for all the calls of the form someAttribute="{this.someFunction()}", even though the function is described in the same block file. Is it that I've been abusing AS3 / FlashBuilder for all this time ?
Also, generic components have problem. Assume I have a class with a deferred 'content' attribute, and I want to instanciate this class and "fill the blank" : I define a custom component in a CustomComponent.mxml file, with a deferred content
<mx:VBox>

I want to create a actionscript mobile project in FB4.5. There is very little information on this by the way. Anyway I want to link to another mxml component by clicking on a button. in flex it is easy but how do i call this in AS3?[URL]..
this is how flex does it <s:Button label="Continue" click="navigator.pushView(MyNewView)" styleName="next"/>
Does MXML get compiled down to as3 and then converted to flash bytecode? Also, is there a significant performance penalty to compiling mxml vs compiling as3?
View 3 RepliesI am working on a custom Flex 4 component which is an aggregation of two existing flex components. I would like to be able to specify my own custom properties for the component as well as access the existing public subcomponent properties via MXML.

View 1 RepliesFrom what Ive seen, most of the examples of using Javascript in Flex are designed for for the full desktop version (or for the browser) and not Flex mobile. For example using ExternalInterface in a Flex mobile project gives the error: Error: Error #2067: The ExternalInterface is not available in this container. ExternalInterface requires Internet Explorer ActiveX, Firefox, Mozilla 1.7.5 and greater, or other browsers that support NPRuntime. Is it possible to call Javascript (such as the Google Maps Javascript API) in a Flex mobile project?
