This used to happen to me all the time, and it still does occasionally. I am on Mac Snow Leopard, and I use other editors on the same files, which Eclipse fails to realise. I remember looking into it and it seems to be a common Eclipse problem based on the fact that Eclipse has its own virtual filesystem eg. it can work on files that only exist in memory. It also does not use the OS file change notification (perhaps it does on Windows and not Mac - not sure). I do know that it never happens with JetBrains IDEA. To stop it I am constantly doing the following when I know files have changed outside Eclipse, and I need to build the latest : 1) Right click on the project and select Refresh 2) Select Project-Clean... from the menu This does a complete build of everything from the latest source.

Just tried it and it worked. Thanks
[flexcoders] Re: code out of sync with flash builder
My code only occasionally goes out of sync, and it's not clear why. Switching projects sometimes fixes it, but not always. I've also deleted the project and then imported the project from my XP where it is not out of sync, but that's not 100% either. It acts like the cache used in incremental compilation gets screwed up. Cleaning the project does not fix it. If anyone knows how to clear that cache and force Flash Builder to start from scratch, please let us know. As of this morning, to get the project out the door, I've switched back to my older system, and will come back to this later.
Re: [flexcoders] Re: code out of sync with flash builder
well I am running windows 7, but I sure as hell am not going back to XP :D Did you have to go through this process every time you debug? or only when encountering the problem and then it would solve it for a while?

Interestingly this problem seems to only occur on my new Windows 7 system with the latest Java. My older XP system would crash when running out of Java heap space, but would never go out of sync.

I had the same problem some time ago. I remember that I erase some files and got things fixed.

[flexcoders] Re: code out of sync with flash builder
Do you have the debug even if there are errors (Or whatever it is called) turned on? I have only seen this when there are errors in the code so a compile can't complete. In this case Flex will let you debug but use the previous compiled version. --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com, Wouter Schreuders wschreuders@... wrote: Has anyone at least run into this problem before?

Re: [flexcoders] Re: code out of sync with flash builder
Yeah... I'm aware of that setting. under windowpreferencesrun/debuglaunchingContinue launch if project contains errors. I've set that to prompt but it's not the cause of the problem. I see there's another setting Luanch operation mine is set to launch the selected resource or active editor. If not launchable: launch the associated project instead of launch the previously launched application What is yours set to?
