Getting started with API and flash builder 4.6

[ErikBlake]

So I have just begun my adventure into developing. And now I need some advice. I have created a couple of maps with ArcGIS Viewer for flex-Application Builder. Is it possible then to import these projects into flash builder and create a app that will run on our tabulates (Androids) I have messed around with the getting started tutorials so i have little understanding as to what is going on. I guess my question is is it possible to import my map apps made in application builder or do I need to generate them using flex viewer. If anybody can tell me how to go about this that would be great. I have already looked at the getting started with ArcGIS API for flex. This shows you how to import the API folder that I downloaded but I can't find anything out there that shows or tells you how to import a project built in ArcGIS Viewer for flex-App Builder. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Erik,

The application builder allows users to configure their own version of an application without manually changing .xml config files.
You cannot take the output from this and put it into flex builder to create mobile applications.

You will need to use the source code and api to build an application in flex builder, but I would guess trying to convert the code for mobile devices is not for a beginner. Some help can be found here:

I would suggest going down some of the routes Bjorn mentioned in reply to one of your other posts:

Thanks for the reply. I have built a map using flex viewer. NOT "Application builder" where I manipulating the config file. If I import that would that work. I mean I have the API folder loaded into a new project. with all of esri's samples. I guess to get some understanding. I can I manipulate one of those samples and have the code pointing to our services on our ArcGis server. For example use the ArcGISWebMap.mxml sample and have it looking at our data? I have flash builder so I am going to use it. I am just trying to get an understanding of the process.
