I am trying the FDT editor on a project that previously ran successfully in Flash CS3. FDT builds and runs it successfully but the SWF is blank (white). I've tried a few viewers on the output file and it is actually blank. One difference is that now my project doesn't seem to include my entry .fla file. I'm new to Flash/ActionScript ...
I have created my ActionScript source files in a folder on a Mac (I normally use PC), and somehow managed to make an Eclipse/FDT project that can see them. I now need to move them into a svn checkout of an existing project to get them under source control. I just can't work out how you do this without losing all references in the proje...
I'm new to FDT and I'd like to move some (actionscript)projects from FlexBuilder to FDT. I've noticed FDT can read .actionscriptProperties from FlexBuilder, so just setting the workspace to my FlexBuilder workspace got the projects, the current one open, the rest of them closed which is great. I got a an error on the way: "Error openi...
Is it possible to set up FDT so that it only builds the workspace when I save (as opposed to constantly or manually) like it does in Flash Builder (previously Flex Builder) and if so, how? ...
I am trying to create a script that would list all the linked libraries in an FDT project and their corresponding svn repositories. My problem : I was not able to find the file on my system where Eclipse (or FDT, I'm not even sure) writes all of the path variables. I have tried capturing changes on my system and have had no luck. If a...
I am making the step from Flex Builder to FDT. Now I have configured the content assist to trigger at ".:_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" - which works close to great. I get all the options presented to me. However when I try to select one by double clicking the item or hitting enter - the selectionbox disappears, without leaving the selecte...

So things i did: 1) Downloaded and installed(unpacked) Eclipse (i'm on Mac) 2) Installed FDT 3.5 Beta as Eclipse plugin 3) Installed latest AptanaStudio Now, when I start the Eclipse, I cannot create Flash Project anymore. Seems that...
On this page: http://developers.facebook.com/tools.php?feed I read, today: Facebook will deprecate template bundles and their related API calls December 20, 2009. Please start using stream attachments with stream.publish, FB.Connect.streamPublish, and Facebook.streamPublish instead. Do anyone have an idea if there is a...
So I'm using Ant with FDT 3 and I have Ant creating a jsfl to compile fla's. When I use the built in ${basedir} property in Ant it gives me the path with backslashes(\) in it because I'm on windows. The problem is that when its run through jsfl the slashes are taken as escapes. I need to know how to modify the basedir property so the sla...
I'm using FDT 3 and Ant to make a jsfl file that is then executed to compile fla's and I'm trying to figure out how to get the jsfl to remove the aso files. I've tried storing the path to the aso files in a property in Ant the is then added to the jsfl when its created and it works to remove the aso file but it means that everyone must e...
How to logout or disconnect facebook user in facebok connect session? I'm using facebook developer toolkit. After using "connectSession.Logout();" method "connectSession.IsConnected()" is still returning "true". Have I done something wrong? EDIT: Now, I know that you can't logout user just from facebook connect site. User can be logged...
I've been using FDT for a long long time, on my new machine, with the Enterprise edition, I cannot add breakpoints on the editors gutter, and the debugger doesn't show any variables when testing with the external player. Any ideas on how to fix, is it some obscure Eclipse setting, or and FDT setting? ...
Hi guys, I am using FDT for Flex development and when I compile, and it tries to access a flv file, I get the error "cannot access local file". This is obviously a security sandbox thing. Now I tried adding crossdomain.xml to the root and it still makes the same error. I know somehow I need to add to my project use-network=false, but i...
Is there any way to speed up MXMLC compiles using Flextasks in Ant in Eclipse. Compared to FDT and Flex Builder's in-built compilation, it is painfully slow. ...
Hi, the document class of my .fla file has a lot of references to elements on the stage, I use fdt for the .as, but everytime I need to debug I have to switch back to Flash IDE, I read this tutorial (http://www.sebastian-weyrauch.de/tutorials/fdt_debugging_tutorial/), but I think it assumes no .fla is involved. So, How could I debug my ...
I would really, really like to move off FlexBuilder onto FDT, but FDT is giving me an obscene number of errors… Almost none of which are legitimate. For example, I've been told "incompatible types Function and Function" and it didn't like it when I used complete paths (eg, new mx.logging.LogEvent()). Apart from turning off all errors, i...
Hi, I get this error : Share project was failed. svn: Error writing entries file for 'C:\workspace2\Test' svn: Entry '' has inconsistent repository root and url But we get this error only on a particular PC. Also if we move the workspace in a network drive, everything works fine. We are using FDT(eclipse based IDE). ...
Hi everybody, I've recently started using FDT, for a while I was using FlashDevelop, it had a really handy feature in Compiler options where you can set UseNetworkServices to false which would stop the compiled swf from connecting to the internet and became very useful for running standalone flash apps without security warnings when load...
Hi guys, I've made a library which I'd like to compile to an SWC file, I've tried to do this in FDT by choosing FDT AS3 Library as Run settings, but all I end up with is a 0kb .swc file. Does anybody know what I'm doing wrong? I can't find much when I google it either, if anybody has a quick walkthrough on how to do it saved in your boo...
What is the purpose of quick fix in Flash Builder 4? I have tried using it to auto create event listener functions, class methods or properties, local variables etc but none of these work. Does this functionality only exist in FDT? If so what does quick fix do in FB4? For example: myEventDispatcher.addEventListener(SomeEvent.EVENT_TYPE...
