Hi Carol, I've tested the bat file to prepare the SDK for usage in the IDE. There seems to be an issue with creating the directory to store playerglobal.swc.
The line if not exist "%FLASHPLAYER_GLOBALPLAYER_DIR%" mkdir "%FLASHPLAYER_GLOBALPLAYER_DIR%" should probably be if not exist "%FB_GLOBALPLAYER_DIR%" mkdir "%FB_GLOBALPLAYER_DIR%" since FLASHPLAYER_GLOBALPLAYER_DIR is not defined in the script as far as I can see. On a sidenote: I imported the SDK into IntelliJ IDEA then and tried to make a small test app, but got this error for all of the *.swc files: [apache-flex-test] No signed digest found in catalog.xml of the library, C:\sdks\flex\4.8.0\frameworks\libs\framework.swc. Compile the library with -create-digest=true and try again. Is this an issue on the SDK side or on the IDE side? See the log below for more details. *** Information:Using built-in compiler shell, up to 4 parallel threads See compiler settings at File | Settings | Compiler | Flex Compiler page Information:Starting Flex compiler: "c:\program files\java\jdk1.7.0\jre\bin\java.exe" -Dapplication.home=C:\sdks\flex\4.8.0 -Djava.awt.headless=true -Duser.language=en -Duser.region=en -Xmx512m -classpath C:\programs\idea\ideaIU-11.1.1\plugins\flex\lib\idea-flex-compiler-fix.jar;C:\programs\idea\ideaIU-11.1.1\plugins\flex\lib\flex-compiler.jar;C:\sdks\flex\4.8.0\lib\flex-compiler-oem.jar com.intellij.flex.compiler.FlexCompiler 55665 Information:[apache-flex-test] mxmlc -load-config=C:/Users/Christophe/AppData/Local/Temp/idea-FC04B22-397BE24E.xml Information:[apache-flex-test] Loading configuration file C:\Users\Christophe\AppData\Local\Temp\idea-FC04B22-397BE24E.xml Information:[apache-flex-test] Required RSLs: Information:[apache-flex-test] http://fpdownload.adobe.com/pub/swz/flex/4.8.0.1337404/framework_4.8.0.1337404.swzwith 1 failover.
