Flex Builder 3 Tips

 

Debugging: Using Standalone Flash Player

Are you tired of waiting for the browser to launch after starting your debugging session? Then, you should use the debug version of the standalone Flash Player. To do so:

  • right click on your project in the Flex Navigator,
  • select “Properties” and in the resulting dialog (see below),
  • choose the “ActionScript Compiler” entry on the left sidebar,
  • uncheck :Generate HTML wrapper file.

You are now set to use the standalone Flash Player. If you do not have the debug version of the Flash Player, which is required for this option, Flex Builder will inform you.

Adobe sites have tools to tell you what version of Flash Player you have and the debug standalone player as well.

You can go back to using the browser by checking “Generate HTML wrapper file.”
