Title: Re: [flexcoders] FlexBuilder on Mac

Also to note, just because Flex Builder for the Mac isn’t yet available, that doesn’t mean you can’t develop for flex on a mac. You can develop and compile for flex 2.0 today on a mac. Several resources have explained how...

http://labs.macromedia.com/wiki/index.php/Flex_Framework:tutorials:mac_development

http://weblogs.macromedia.com/mesh/archives/2006/01/resources_for_c.cfm

http://weblogs.macromedia.com/mesh/archives/2005/12/compiling_actio.cfm

And the eclipse platform, the underpinnings for FlexBuilder 2.0 is also readily available for the mac, ( http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/) along with some plugins for MXML

... It’s by no stretch of the imagination FlexBuilder 2.0 as far as features are concerned, but it should hold Mac developers off until it is available.

Hi,

To be clear, we intend to support Flex Builder on the Mac. However, we don't have a schedule for this yet---it will be after the 1.0 Windows version ships. But we will get there.

Neither the current version nor the upcoming Flex Builder 2 will work on a
Mac. There is talk about maybe supporting a Mac in the future, but I
wouldn't hold your breath.

Subject: [flexcoders] FlexBuilder on Mac

Anyone get this to work?

I installed Eclipse 3.1 on my Mac and copied over the features, plugins,
etc. from a Windows install of FlexBuilder. The IDE launches but will not
open the MXML editor. The following exception is logged to console:

java.lang.NullPointerException
      at zorn.editors.mxml.MXMLEditor.init(MXMLEditor.java:165)

A couple things I've noticed: in the "About Eclipse" dialog (under the Help
menu), the "Flex" logo does not appear alongside the Eclipse logo. Also,
under "installed features", none of the zorn.* features appear. Worst of
all, the zorn features xml files have the following lines at the top:

os="win32"
ws="win32"

Anyone know if it will ever be possible to run FlexBuilder on a Mac?

Thanks.
Tobias.
