Hi,
I've downloaded FlashBuilder 4.0 which is the latest Flex development environment. It is an Eclipse-based setup, using Ganymede. Currently I'm having to work this way, with both NB and FlashBuilder (FB) Eclipses running, with separate workspaces:
1) Write/fix some code in FB Eclipse,
2) Save in FB with "Build Automatically"
3) Copy swf file to NBEclipse workspace,
4) Clean the NB Eclipse project (just hitting and deleting a key in main.cpp to force a "Build Automatically" doesn't seem to be sufficient.)
5) Load/Run the NB project

This works, but is slow, especially the NB Clean (I keep getting distracted by other things while waiting and forget where I was). And if I forget to copy the swf file I have to go back and repeat parts.

I don't mind switching between the two Eclipses, but would having these in one instance of Eclipse eliminate the copying step, or esp the Clean? If so, I couldn't see how to get FB into the NB Eclipse, so could I get FB Eclipse Ganymede to support NB? Is there an App Note on how to do this (I have looked)?

Is there a way to get the new swf file built into the *.app w/o doing a Clean?

Possibly unrelated: Why does a Clean take 60 seconds? A build with one file changed takes about 10 seconds. I've moved the archived files out of the workspace, it had been building them as well each time, but I think it is just doing the one project now.

Right click on your project and click refresh. THis is what i do and works just fine for me.
Maybe there is somthing strange going on with your setup. I would allot with Flex and NB open at the same time and both are not slow for me.

Got enough ram

Thanks,
The refresh seems to usually work, but doesn't always catch it.
I think 'enough RAM' is one of those things like being "too rich", but I've got 4GB, so I don't think that is the problem. Probably a virus checker getting too enthusiastic; my smaller, slower laptop Cleans much quicker.

Huh, never misses a beat for me. when i get done with mt Flex app and then export it to a temp directory. i then copy it to my NBurn project / HTML directory. Then i go to NB Eclipse and right click on the project, click refresh and it detects there is a change and re-compiles. Works every time for me.

I too have 4GB of ram, so thats not the problem. I dont know what else to suggest, maybe someone else can chime in and offer something for ya.
