As a side note, the code formatter is the Enterprise IDE plugin is adequate
but still needs some work. I tried it on several mxml files, and it gets
confused, especially on the ActionScript section of the file. For example,
if you have code like this:
private function enterAI():MDIWindow {
var view:NewAI = new NewAI();
view.sn = _sn;
view.un = _un;
view.secLevel = _secLevel;
view.cn = _cn;
view.canEdit = _secLevel <= 11;
view.hasAudit = false;
view.showControls = false;
return view;
}
It turns it into this:
private function enterAI():MDIWindow {
var view:NewAI = new NewAI();
view.sn = _sn;
view.un = _un;
view.secLevel = _secLevel;
view.cn = _cn;
view.canEdit = _secLevel
<= 11;
view.hasAudit = false;
view.showControls = false;
return view;
}
Or, if you have code like this:
private var menuXML:XMLList =
<>
<menuitem label="Investigators" data="M1"/>
</>;
It turns it into this:
private var menuXML:XMLList =
<>
<menuitem label="Investigators"
data="M1"/>
</>
;
It's a good start, but still has a ways to go.
Just my 2-cents-worth.

Subject: [flexcoders] Re: format code in FB3
Talking as the author of the Enterprise IDE plugin from IDE Factory,
I would like to clarify some points:
Code formatting is only one feature among many offered by the
plugin, there are 20 major features in total including improvements
in code navigation, code generation, code documentation and general
tools. There are many new features in the development pipeline as
well.
Eclipse plugin development is not trivial. If you are serious about
learning, if you are attending Adobe MAX there will be a session on
extending Flex Builder that should be worthwhile. I myself will
present in 360 | MAX about my plugin and will be happy to talk about
my own experiences extending Flex Builder and answer questions.
That said the Enterprise IDE plugin will be very inexpensive, less
than $100 for a year subscription with multiple updates per year
with new features and bug fixes. It represents hundreds of hours of
development time on my part, and frankly I am an experienced eclipse
plugin developer. Ask yourself, what is more valuable to you, your
time or spending less than the cost of a single hour of a Flex
developer time for a year of improved productivity?
Incidentally upgrading Flex Builder is hardly free either. I
apologize for what may be construed as an "advertisement" on the
list but I was not the first to mention my plugin in this thread.
You and anyone else interested in the features offered can do their
own cost-benefit analysis and draw their own conclusions.
Best of luck,
Luis Lejter
