I think I've figured out how to fix the problem. I first quit Eclipse and deleted the .metadata folder in my workspace after first making a copy of it. Next I restarted Eclipse and imported my project (Eclipse was reset to it's default workspace without the metadata). I tried debugging the project and trace statements started working again.
I next quit Eclipse and tried copying all of the subfolders in the old .metadata directory that I saved except for the com.adobe.flexbuilder subfolders back into the live workspace. When I restarted I was back to my old configuration and trace was still working. There must be something in those com.adobe.flexbuilder subfolders that caused the problem, but I don't know what it is or why it caused the trace statement to stop functioning. Anyway, it was a lot easier to fix the problem this way than the other way of re-installing the whole development environment ;-) Paul --- In [email protected], "Paul Whitelock" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Through the console in Flex Builder.
