Mike,
  Is there way to get standard libraries (framework, rpc, flex, etc) built with -debug=false
Thank you,
Anatole

The problem is with the way the player and the debugger initiate
their communication. Here's how it works when things are going well:

1. When you click Debug in Flex Builder, it starts listening on a
TCP/IP socket, and it launches your browser.

2. When the Flash Player notices that the SWF was built with -debug,
it tries to connect to the TCP/IP socket.

3. They are now connected, and debugging begins.

But what happens if, in step 2, the Flash Player's attempt to connect
to the TCP/IP socket fails? That is, what if no debugger is waiting
for incoming connections? The answer is, the Flash Player puts up
that message asking where the debugger is. That dialog was added
long ago to support remote debugging in Flash Professional.

In this case, unfortunately, the Flash Player isn't doing the right
thing. When the RSL gets loaded, the player sees that it was
compiled with -debug, so it tries to connect on the TCP/IP socket --
but since Flex Builder had no involvement in the loading of that RSL,
Flex Builder didn't know to start listening on the socket. So the
Flash Player can't find a debugger, so it puts up the dialog.

For a future release, I hope to improve this so that you get a
smoother workflow in scenarios such as the one you are describing.
