Trying to Build project in FlashDevelop.. Help! Please..

AlexGray — Fri, 15 Apr 2011 15:41:27 GMT

I just installed FlashDevelop and imported the ArcGIS viewer for flex src code as a project.

Everything looks fine.. I can see all the files I think I need to..

Tried to run the project, figured I needed to build the project first..So, I clicked "build project"..

Starts building the project....

Then I get the "Build Failed" messages below..

Z:\flexviewer-2.2-src\src\com\esri\viewer\IBaseWidget.as
(103):col: 28 Error: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Map.

Z:\flexviewer-2.2-src\src\com\esri\viewer\IBaseWidget.as

Z:\flexviewer-2.2-src\src\com\esri\viewer\components\InfoPopup.mxml
(42):Error: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Map.

Can anyone help me figure out how to fix these?
Thanks..

In the "Project" window, expand the "libs" directory, right-click on the .swc file (the Flex API), and click the "Add to Library" menu item.

You will also have to change all the references to the image files as noted in another post.

I'm a couple of steps ahead of you...I can get the project to compile, but when I run it, it's missing an xml file for the Widget Container. If I figure out that error, I'll update this post or start a new thread.

Very helpful - did you find the problem with the misplaced config.xml?

In Flash Develop how do you do a global search/replace? I can only get it to work on one file at a time.

Thanks!

Here's the flash error:
Could not find file:///C:/DevFlash/flexviewer-2.3.1-src/bin-debug/widgets/WidgetContainer/config.xml

One thing to keep in mind with flashdevelop, and the primary reason I went back to flash builder, is that it does not support flex modules. Each individual widget needs to be a separate project and the output directory needs to be set to equate the output of flash builder (where the api expects to find things).

This is probably why your widgetcontainer is not being found, it's not compiled and in the correct output directory.

Did you happen to figure out this problem? Did you have to somehow turn each widget into a project?

I"m confused, when using Flashdevelop you need to turn each widget into a project file with an output where?
