Flash Builder 4.6 Compile Time

Anonymous User — Wed, 10 Apr 2013 15:25:57 GMT

When I compile my Flex project it takes 15+ minutes to compile in Flash Builder. The "local" source is on a network drive, which I know will have an impact but 15+ minutes seems quite long. Does anyone have any ideas to make this project compile quicker?

Thanks!

Jeremy,

Ensure you only have the ONE project you are compiling open in the Package explorer. Each asset in your project will require transcoding, so eliminate any unneeded assets (i.e. images) in your project. Some time just closing flash builder and reopening it will help, as memory is cleared and you are working from a clean slate.

Hi, as Robert said - right-click on any other projects in your Flex Package explorer and 'Close Project'
Where is your output directory? is it on the network as well? you can define that to be on your local machine.
I would try it once to copy everything off your network to your local machine and see how long that takes to compile.
Yes, 15 minutes is a looooong time.
