I'm using it on Ubuntu 8.10 (was on 8.4 and 7.10 before that) and I haven't actually hit any code completion problems (except that an error pretty much anywhere in your mxml might kill code completion), but "find all references" is hopeless (should more accurately be called "find some references sometimes maybe"). I haven't really used FB in Windows (or Mac, for that matter), so I'm not sure if the situation is better there. Still, it's a tremendously useful tool (especially the graphical debugger). I certainly hope it makes it out of alpha on Linux eventually.
And to the original poster--yes, go with Europa. We've hit a number of problems with Ganymede. -- Maciek Sakrejda Truviso, Inc. http://www.truviso.com -----Original Message----- From: Tyler Kocheran <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [flexcoders] Tons of errors using FlexBuilder on Ubuntu Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2009 10:30:23 -0800 Is anyone in Adobe still working on Flex Builder Linux? I am using it almost every day now, and I can say that I'm really happy with it, at least as far as Flex Builder is concerned. Sure there's no design view (which I'm still waiting for ;) ), and code completion is only barely there, but all in all, I can use it to create Flex applications and that rocks. I'm definitely willing to pay the dough to buy a Flex Builder license for Linux, should Adobe go ahead and complete it :) On Fri, Dec 26, 2008 at 7:02 AM, Fernando Wermus <[email protected]> wrote: In my case, it is much worse. I cant even install it. I tried to install it with many Eclipses in Ubunt 8.04 in my laptop. The fact is that it only runs in Ubuntu 7.04 & 7.10 according to Adobe's page. We are thinking to move to Mac definitily, because Linux isn't a good bet. Adobe is not really interested in a full support. Bye!

With that said, I'm experiencing a lot of problems that I don't think other people are experiencing. I'm using Ubuntu as my OS, and Ganymede for my Eclipse version with Flash Player 10 release version. (I can't seem to install Flash 10 Debug Players, does anyone know how to do that on Ubuntu?) When I try to compile my application, it launches fine (when i "Run" it, not when I "Debug" it. Debugging doesn't work because I don't have a debug player installed.) However, I'm getting nothing when it runs, just a big blue application that does nothing. I can't visually add anything to the display list, I can't log anything out to Arthropod, I basically can't do anything. When I try to embed my application via SWFObject, that's no working either. I get the alternative content every time. Now here are my questions, I'm going to try and discover the answers ASAP for them, but if you know anything, could you help me out? Does FlexBuilder for Linux need to be installed on a Europa release? Does FlexBuilder for Linux require you to use Flash Player 9 release and debug players? Will using the Flex ant tasks resolve some of the problems I'm having? Any help is much appreciated!
