ASDoc through the Flex Builder UI?

Question

Is there any way to run ASDoc on your project via the Flex Builder UI? Or, is there a good (preferably free) plugin that will do so?

If there is no UI for it, does someone have a link to a tutorial on how to set it up to be automatic when I build my project, maybe via Ant (which I've never used, but am more than happy to try) or something? (sorry for the multi-part question)

Answer 1

This tool says it does that in a single click on the features page, although it may be a bit more than you are looking for.

Answer 2

Here are some links to ant tasks that run AsDoc for you:

• one from Eric Feminella
• one from Christophe Herreman

Answer 3

You can define a launch configuration in the external tools that will run the asdoc utility.
