I'm working on a project that has a Main.fla and a Preload.fla. I am doing all the coding in Flash Builder 4. Each time I want to test I have to go to Flash CS5, publish Main.swf and then run Preload.swf. Is there a way to automate this process so I can just press the "Run Main" button inside Flash Builder 4 and all that is done automatically?

View 1 RepliesWhen i make a release build the folder is populated with a number of swfs. Are all these swfs necessary?Is there a option to generate one swf?
EDIT: The files I see are:

Is there a way to automatically generate a build number for my swfs? Ideally, this should be available as a variable so it can be shown when the application or module runs, and should increment whenever I click save or build or debug. I've seen vague references to ANT being able to handle this, but have no clue how to implement that functionality into either Flash or Flex Builder... I'd assume an XML or TXT file somehow gets updated via ANT and would then be compiled into the swf???
View 6 RepliesIf you once run an ObjectBuilder the object instantiated will be cached and next time you use an PropertyInjector or something else, the instantiated object will be used instead of creating a new object. Or at least this should be like this :) But in the example below it seems that mate tries to instantiate the object again: The following error occurs:

View 1 RepliesI am developing a project with Flex, and I need to deploy my project in a form which can be used by developers who do not have access to Flash Builder. I've found references to plugins from Faratasystems, but it appears their sourceforge site is a little bit rusty. I could not find an up to date installation file that'd include FX2Ant plugin and work with my Flash Builder 4
View 1 RepliesIs it possible to enable verbose build logging in Flash Builder? Ideally, I want to be able to see the exact arguments that are being passed to the mxmlc.exe compiler. Context: I'm currently trying to automate our build process using GradleFx so we can move away from using Flash Builder and run our build on a CI server. At present, I'm running into a few problems and my lack of knowledge about the flash/flex build process is impeding progress. Being able to see what the FB project translates to would greatly aid me in being able to set up the new build scripts.
View 1 RepliesI've been working with Flash Builder for quite a long time, but just lately, developing a relative small project in Flex, when I try to auto complete the code sometimes the whole application crashes (keeps loading forever). It happened when I was writing <Style source="" /> or even when it was auto generating an handler for an event, so I guess it doesn't depend on the classes I use.

We'd like to have an app autorun when our clients put in our info CD. Is it possible to do this using Adobe AIR... We were thinking of using the Flash Projector cause it compiles to an .exe which is easily launched, but there's no way to get rid of the ugly window chrome is there?

View 4 RepliesI am trying to automate the input process so that when a user inputs 3 numbers into the first field, it automatically jumps to the next one. I have the code to do it and it seems as though it should work but, for some reason, when I move focus from one field to the next the data in the previous field is re-arranged so that the last character input becomes the first (610 becomes 061 - for example).Here is my code:
Code:
phone1.width = 30;
phone1.move(10,10);

View 4 RepliesWhile in Design mode in Flash Builder 4 (gumbo, beta 2), is it possible to edit multiple states at once? In the "states" window, it would seem like I should be able to shift-select multiple states so changes made will affect all the selected states, and if all are selected it will not add the state selector to the property in the mxml tag. No?

View 1 RepliesI 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 have a flash builder project that has no mxml file.
I'm wondering if there's a way to build a this project using hudson or even ant.
I've previously built a FB project and used the following syntax in the build.xml[code]...
I have to build an Adobe AIR application with the Namespace 2.6. The problem is, I recently downloaded Flash Builder 4.6 onto a new computer, and it requires the Namespace to be 3.1. Otherwise, it throws an error. The only solutions I can find online are to change the Namespace in the app.xml file to 3.1. This however causes issues later on when I try to Code-sign the application.The easiest fix would be to make Flash Builder build the application with Namespace 2.6.

I have tried what J_A_X has recommended. Unfortunately none of those work. It seems to be a problem somewhere within the project settings. We have also tried running the export release build for this project on different machines with fresh installs of flash builder, but the same error message is produced every time. We've looked through so many settings it may come down to having to create a new project and copy all the code into the new application.
In TFS 2010 build, I have a new build and I want to call an ant script that builds Flash. How do I call the ant script? Also How can I compile the Flash directly? I've seen the Power Tools and this question but it doesn't help me as we don't have TFS 2008. I can't find any documentation on how to use the power tools except the 1 sentence on the bottom of download page saying to create your build the old way and import it (which isn't very helpful). I've installed the power tools on the agent computer but I don't see any new options in the Toolbox when I'm designing the build flow.
View 2 RepliesI started to use Flash Builder with Adobe Flash CS5. Everything seems to ork great, but auto code completion if FB works only for FlexSDK classes. For example, if I'll write "import fl." list with "events;ik;lang; ..." appears, but when I write "import flash." i have ".text" suggestion only. I would be very glad if someone could tell me how to fix this. I couldn't find anything in google (code completion in Flash Pro works great, only in Flash Builder not).

Now my problem is that if i put my content inside the movie-clip (centerrectangle) with all the animation require, link and other stuff, the movieclip (center rectangle ) never have the exact same center, thus making the script go wild trying to always adjust the location to the variable size of the movie clip.

Does anyone know if there is a way to make the new Package Explorer window in Flash Builder emulate Flex Builders 'Flex navigator' window?
Bottom line is I don't always need to peer into SWC's, and I don't like having a 'default package' automatically created for me. Not sure why the interface wasn't made simpler, allowing access to more power and complexity only if necessary. I want to focus on the code, not on how to navigate and use the bells and whistles in the coding environment.
I just upgraded to Flash Builder 4 (beta 2) from Flex Builder 3 which I have been using since it came out. Problem: All the projects that were in my workspace from Flex Builder 3 did not carry over into Flash Builder 4 (e.g. in the "Flex Navigator" view if FB3). Flash Builder 4 now uses the .FXP format to manage projects, but Flex Builder 3 did not. Is there an easy way to get all my projects back into Flash Builder 4?
