Thanks Jason, Your process is exactly what I am trying to do. Looks like this is a good reason for me how to figure out Ant.

Re: [Flashcoders] Compile .fla from Flex?
My pleasure - if you need help just getting that up and running you might want to check out the Adding a Buildfile section of the FDTKit wiki: http://code.google.com/p/fdtkit/wiki/Documentation - even if you aren't interested in using the project it should help you get started with Ant (note the page is actually a bit dated as its from FDT 1.5 days).

Re: [Flashcoders] Compile .fla from Flex?
Yes, I saw went through it and got it going. I had some issues trying to find the ant tasks as I was looking for it under the run button menu but once I realized the external tools was only connected through the run menu I got it to work. Thanks for this, I'd wish I had found it earlier this year when I finally went all over to the Mac/Eclipse/FDT. There is a lot of good info up there.

RE: [Flashcoders] Compile .fla from Flex?
Why target a .fla? Do you mean .swf? I think FlashDevelop + Flex SDK compiler is a great combo and very easy to set up.

Re: [Flashcoders] Compile .fla from Flex?
On a Mac so FlashDevelop isn't an option. What I am looking to do is hit the run button from inside Eclipse/Flex Builder have it jump over to Flash and compile. It's a minor inconvenience when compared to editing ActionScript in the Flash Editor but I was hoping someone had built a bridge somehow.

Re: [Flashcoders] Compile .fla from Flex?
In FlexBuilder you should be able to do this by referencing assets in an SWC made from your .fla (To do this in Flash CS3 check Export SWC in Publish Settings) However, there is a bug with the Flex SDK and CS3 SWC's. You'll need to install the following patch if you want to do anything with the Flex SDK (or FlexBuilder) and CS3: http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401493 Best, Ed On Jan 8, 2008 3:43 PM, Jason M Horwitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: You could do this with Ant and JSFL - check out the buildfile and safeTestMovie.jsfl from my FDTKit project: http://fdtkit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/build.xml http://fdtkit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/bin/scripts/SafeTestMovie.jsfl I think the test_movie ant target does pretty much what you're looking for: automates switching from Eclipse (or FlexBuilder) to Flash for compiling (in this case whatever the current/open fla is).
