Flash Builder 4.6/4.7 and Apache Flex

Hi,

Adobe nicely sent me my free FB 4.7 serial and looks like it expects a slightly different format for the SDK than we expect.

1. Compile from source code (RC2)
2. Run ide/fashbuilder/makeApacheFlexForFlashBuilder.sh to package up SDK that something FB can use.

FB 4.6 recognised the packaged SDK however FB 4.7 doesn't. Is the makeApacheFlexForFlashBuilder.sh script up to date? Have I missed any other required steps?

FB 4.7 gives the error "Directory does not contain a Flex SDK". Anyone know exactly what FB 4.7 expects where?

Thanks,
Justin

Yep Apache Flex 4.7 does recognise a Apache Flex 4.8 SDK.

Hopefully that's the case and it won't take too much work to fix.

Thanks,

Well actually while it recognised the SDK I just tried it out on a project and I get an error "Interface ISWFContext was not found.", the same 4.8 SDK works fine in FB 4.6.

I think that may be something to do with embedded fonts/TLF?

Did you try the installer with 4.8?  Does it work with FB 4.7?

I remember Carol mentioning that the scripts are out of date.
