Is there any configuration or method by which we can speedup debug or launch of application.. i have machine with 4 GB RAM, core i-7 processor. still it launches application from flash builder in 4 minutes.
uncheck all the validators.. it will speed up the build process :)
I have another optimization.
Probably you don't depend on the design mode.
So here is a simple trick which you can use to speed up the Flash Builder.
Open the default sdk folder which you are using.
(By default it's located /Applications/Adobe Flash Builder 4.5/sdks/{the default sdk 4.5.0} for Mac OS similar for windows (C:\Program Files\Adobe Flash Builder 4.5\sdks{the default sdk 4.5.0})
Then edit the file with name flex-sdk-description.xml
Just change the value of the version tag to something like this 4.10.0 :)
Save the file and restart the Flash Builder.
After this change the builder will not use the design view.
"Design View not Supported - incompatible SDK version"
If you want to use it again just put the correct value i.e. 4.5.0 (Should be the same as the name of the folder in which is located the file).
Best,
Emil
Here are more things that you can do to improve your (IDE) Eclipse/ Flex Builder

Modify eclipse.ini
Create a ram disk(virtual disk) on memory,..
Disable unneeded validators
etc...

I am trying to find the elusive JavaFX scene builder so I can use it in Intellij. I am on Windows OS.
Oracle have stated that the JavaFX scene builder is included in a new download, but no matter how I search I cannot find it (see http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javafx/downloads/index.html). I think they have linked to the incorrect page and Googling for it is getting me nowhere.
I already have Java 8 SDK installed and working fine. Apparently JavaFX is now included in that, but nowhere in the Java folder can I find the scene builder and it seems to be completely missing online.
Please can anyone help? I am just wanting to write a small GUI program and it seems like JavaFX is the way to go (if it isn't then feel free to disabuse me of this notion!)
With JDK8u40, according to this:
Starting with Oracle Java SE 8u40, Oracle does not provide a separate set of accompanying JavaFX Scene Builder binaries. If you would like to contribute changes, ideas or just let us know what you have done with the code, please consult the OpenJDK Community contribution guidelines and join the openjfx-dev mailing list.
You can still download the last binary at Oracle in this link. But check this warning:
WARNING: These versions of JavaFX Scene Builder may include components that do not contain the latest security patches and are not recommended for use in production.
This means it doesn't include the last changes of 8u40, like the new Spinner control.
Alternatives
The project is open source, and you can find the updated code at the OpenJFX repo. So you are free to download it and build it.
Since its released under BSD license, Gluon is offering support for an updated version of Scene Builder, and you can download an installer for your platform or an executable jar from here.
Besides, they have an open repository where anybody can contribute.
Install JavaFx Scene Builder (Gluon) with Intellij 14 on Windows with JDK7
This will probably work with Java 8 as well but I am using 7 so I didn't test 8.
I know this has been answered but this might be helpful for future Intellij users. To get scene builder to work with Intellij 14 use the following steps.
Install Scene Builder for Windows. Download/Install From Here (Windows Installer (x64))
Set Scene Builder path to executable in Intellij. File -> Settings
-> Languages And Frameworks -> JavaFx By default mine installed under C:\Users\kris\AppData\Local\SceneBuilder\
Open your .fxml file. Click on the scene builder tab.
UPDATE 2019:
The default install path appears to know be "Program Files" C:\Program Files\SceneBuilder\SceneBuilder.exe
JavaFX plugin might need to be enabled in Intellij 2019
On a mac, in Intellij, you need to go to preferences, then type JavaFX and then do this. Please look at the attached Image.
Below is the screenshot of CPU utilization.
Just curious what are those Interface Builder Cocoa Touch Tool & ibtoold process.
Because of this, to run app, it takes me around 1 min least.
Note: I am using xcode 5
I see that this happens when there are more view controllers. I have around 25 view controllers.
Yes, I had created project in Xcode 4.6 and after updating, opened in Xcode 5.
Attached is the screenshot for the file inspector.
There is a stack overflow question along similar lines but the question involved only a single nib. The project in that case was created for iOS2 and used a new version of Xcode. This led me to examine the latest Interface Builder Release Notes (3.2) which states:
"Interface Builder documents can no longer be saved in the NIB 2.x
file format. NIB 2.x files will automatically be upgraded to NIB 3.x
files upon opening."
So, I would suggest you check the file inspector of your nib files and verify their current version. I suspect that Interface Builder is simply attempting to update 25 nib files to version 3.x. If you have an older Carbon nib files then please see the Xcode Release Notes (v.4.0 - current) as they require using version 3.2 in Xcode 4 and higher.
Xcode 4.6.3 displays versioning of nibs on the file inspector using these menu items:
While Xcode 5.0.1 displays versioning somewhat differently.
The project document should also be in the latest format:
.
The basic premise is that Xcode is converting the project file/nibs on load. If this recurs on every load I would report that as a bug to Apple at http://bugreport.apple.com. I think the information found is pointing to the correct issue. Checking that the files are using the latest version should fix the issue unless there is a bug.
Other things to try:
Load the project on a separate machine/directory (There might be some
corruption on your current one)
Run Console and capture logs as the problem is occurring (you will
need to also capture system logs for Apple anyhow but the Console
might show a useful error message)

I have a desktop application using NativeProcess and I need the follwoing in the descriptor file.
<supportedProfiles>extendedDesktop desktop</supportedProfiles>
Unfortunately the file keeps reverting to (desktop first)
<supportedProfiles>desktop extendedDesktop </supportedProfiles>
How do I prevent this?
I'm using Flash Builder to launch though compiling using the Flash IDE.
Flash CS is rewriting the list based on the order of the checkboxes in the AIR Settings window. Changing the order of the profiles in the Descriptor.3.x.xsd file won't help. You could set the app.xml file to read-only, as long you don't have to make any other changes. Not a great solution...
Can I produce a native exe using flash builder and air.
I don't want the user to have to get any other dependencies such as air etc. I want everything bundled into a native application, a single exe perhaps that I could produce my own installer using nullsoft or similar.
I've searched around and spoken to people and come to the conclusion that no one is sure, seen some yes and no's.
With flash builder 4.6 they have included the captive build process in the gui. This enables you to produce an exe that is bundled with the AIR Dll's and requirements without the end user ever needing to install Adobe AIR.
Correct: Flash Builder 4.6 has the option right there in the Project menu option, when selecting "Export Release build" :-)
I have an old NPAPI plugin for OS X that I'm trying to refit for use with Snow Leopard's version of Safari. My problem is that when I switch Safari to 64-bit mode, it changes the plugin environment to out of process mode (where plugins are hosted by a 32-bit WebKitPluginHost process). And now my toolbar palettes are not visible on screen, even though the NSPanels on which they are based think they are visible. The documentation says that bringing up windows is not recommended, but doesn't say its prohibited; is there something I can do to bring up my Windows?
The most reliable solution is to simply let another application, possibly connected to your plugin via some IPC mechanism, do thatApple:
Avoid creating windows. The intent is for plug-ins to operate within the browser window. Although some plug-ins have historically done so, creating windows in your plug-in is not recommended. If you need to maintain separate windows, you should consider starting a separate application.
Bringing up windows from a plugin might work in some circumstances and completely break in different ones. By recommending against doing so Apple is at liberty to break your previously working behaviour whenever it wishes to.
Unfortunately, probably not. If you're doing anything that is not possible using the normal graphics libraries (CoreAnimation, Cocoa, etc), you probably can't do it using the 32 bit plugin in 64 bit safari.
You might be able to do more if you compile your plugin in 64 bit mode, though. I don't know :-/
I know I am a little late. Safari doesn't allow plugin to display NSPanel. You should try using NSWindow instead. I know Apple doesn't agree.
For showing menu you could use "popupcontextmenu". It takes NPNSMenu which is NSMenu typecasted.
