Updating widgets

deleted-user-yA_w_FC9FKe5

Do I need to have the whole viewer loaded into Flash Builder to update a widget from say 3.1 to 3.3?

I've been trying to do this but when I go to run/build it I get a file not found error about a file not found "file:/C:/user/Adobe%20Flash%20Builder%204.6/flexViewer/Bin-debug/index.html"

I was thinking maybe I was doing this the hard way.  I was thinking maybe I could just load the widget and make the changes and then build to make the swf.

Yes, you'll need the Flex API .swc and also the Flex Viewer Source Code because the widgets usually reference things for the widget manager and stuff like that.

For example:

<viewer:BaseWidget xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
                   xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
                   xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/mx"
                   xmlns:viewer="com.esri.viewer.*"
                   initialize="basewidget_initializeHandler()"
                   widgetConfigLoaded="basewidget_widgetConfigLoaded()">
