Re: [flexcoders] Moving my command-line development to FlashBuilder4.6 - confused.
Thanks, Srinivas. It's true, I came to Flash Builder in a bit of a hurry
and didn't take the time to read as much of the documentation as I
should have. I had indeed not understood the FB mechanisms properly.
With your explanation I understand a bit better what I need to do.
Thanks again!

Thank you, Rishi! That helps a lot. And I was able to import that fxp file and compile with no problems.

The code I copied over from my other machine compiles just fine using
the SDK and it runs fine. Why is Flash Builder giving these errors? It
looks like it is having problems importing flash.media.Camera and
appears confused by addEventListener. Have I done something with my
project setup that is screwing with Flash Builder? I'm thinking I'd like
to be able to do the rest of this project development in FB, but this
isn't looking very promising so far.

My mxml (IntegratedEncoder.mxml) file is at http://pastebin.com/ZJbhk11V My ActionScript file (IntegratedEncoderController.as) is at http://pastebin.com/EJUk8nw1 If I use the SDK tools (mxmlc) to compile the two files,everything works fine. It's only when I try to create a project in Flash Builder and compile it there that I get issues. Im getting *really* tired of adjusting the visual layout by running, tweaking the mxml file by hand in vi, compiling, running, etc. and would really like to be able to use the Flash Builder tool to manipulate the element layout in my mxml file. Besides that, I'm finding the tooltip help to be easier to make use of than having a browser open to Adobe's Actionscript reference pages and switching between my vi window and browser window.

Whether you use Command-line or Flex Builder it doesn't matter, you always will

you.
FX:Script tag is used in mxml to just include AS scripts which doesn't have
class definitions. Normally these AS files would have methods, variables etc
required or used in MXML file. I hope you know that any MXML file can use
fx:script tag and write the AS scripts stuff required in that particular MXML.
Treat this MXML+AS script as class.
