It's always supposed to have a dialog if it can't find FD debugger.

Re: AS3 Documentation Generation

A valid classpath would be "C:\dw-projects\gap\GAP_Game_1\src"

And obviously you didn't tell ASDoc where your logger SWC is located - ASDoc isn't aware of your FD project settings. It's going to be in the additional parameters like: "-library-path+=path/to/logger.swc"

Dissapear of clues

info@flashdevelop.org — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 20:42:45 GMT

When I writing my code I can't see clues with values or some functions. I tryed reinstall but it don't change anything.
I saw them a few days ago. Is there any option to reset configs to the default state ?

Re: Ant panel plugin

info@flashdevelop.org — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 17:51:50 GMT

I made a modification to the plugin - now in the settings you can specify if you want ANT to use Verbose output. This helps a lot with debugging larger tasks.

Hex Numbers (0x...) get interpreted as "Object" in code gen.

info@flashdevelop.org — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 15:27:10 GMT

When I generate a function out of this function call:
_test(0xffffff);

It will generate

private function _test(object:Object) {}

instead of

private function _test(number:int) {}

(This may also be a problem with octal, but I didn't eihter ever use it or test it)

Yep, they're on the same network.

Re: AS3 Documentation Generation

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 22:50:27 GMT

Are you talking about the few fields when you open the generator? If so, I'm not sure what that would tell you, but here it is:

I have given the project a title, and directed the output to a local /docs directory. For the classpaths I grabbed 2 high level source code directories:

Code:

C:\dw-projects\gap\GAP_Game_1\src\org\dw
C:\dw-projects\gap\GAP_Game_1\src\org\gap

I haven't entered any classes to exclude. By the way, when you exclude classes, what is the separator? A comma? Also, do you need to provide the fully qualified classpath when excluding classes?

I didn't enter any extra options as I do not know what those options are. I chose the ASDOC (AS3) compiler.

Under the Settings tab I have ASDoc location set to C:\Program Files\FlashDevelop\Tools\flexsdk\bin

Re: Issues with Android AIR Debugging and Compiling

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 22:38:06 GMT

No you don't need Flash installed on the device, and the app on the device should complain it can't find the debugger.

Is your device connected to WIFI, and more precisely to the same network where your computer is connected?

Re: Issues with Android AIR Debugging and Compiling

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 20:42:18 GMT

I reinstalled AIR via the exe, and started the steps again from the beginning, but still no dialog or debug information or anything. The debug eventually times out, and that's it.

The only information I could find on this issue that makes any sense is two separate opinions:

1. someone saying flash needs to be installed on the android device to be able to port AS3 to AIR mobile, but I was under the impression that the point of porting to AIR was to get around the lack of flash availability

2. someone saying it's an ongoing problem with AIR trying to make debug calls to a particular function that it can't find.

Re: Refactoring Package Locations

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 20:24:56 GMT

This feature is in TODO list.

if you can - do it in FlashBuilder or FDT.

if you can't... - move your files manually.
Then run 2 Find and replace in whole project to fix package paths and imports.

it suxz.. but not deadly bad.

Refactoring Package Locations

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 19:44:13 GMT

Is there a way in FD4 to refactor a class' package location? Right now when I move a class I have to open it, save with the new package, and then track down every reference to that class. In my current project I have realized that I should have a certain package above all of my source code which I neglected initially....now I have dozens of classes that need a different classpath....

Re: FD book topics...

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 19:11:11 GMT

Nice, hope to see that soon. Having a book to go through would be helpful as well, so that I could reference the things I need without having 8 tabs open on my web browser .

I have started retaining some of the code I have been typing over the past few weeks, but knowing how to make it all fit without trying to mimic a tutorial is the part that is getting me. I really would like to go back to school for this, so that I could have access to all the programs, but since I started with FD, I fear that would only confuse me. I would love it if I could find a weekend workshop about game design in FD to be honest, as long as the cost wasn't too high. I always seem to do better with classroom like instruction and someone to answer questions I might have before I forget why I have asked them .

Thanks for responding so fast!

Re: How to restore the last opened files?

Phillipe forgot to mention "use project session" in the ProjectPanel properties sheet, witch actually saves the opened files of the project itself when it is closed.

Re: "Your" lack of documentation or my lack of experience?

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 16:37:42 GMT

Ha I didn't notice that you were 2 talking in this thread

Ok guys keep cool, we're incredibly grateful that people contribute, for instance some of the top features (like Project panel, Debugger, CodeRefactor, Reformatter...). However since we started we've heard many times the "your project will soon fade out" song so it doesn't make us too anxious

Keep in mind that this isn't a library or framework you're supposed to build onto - even the editor component (Scintilla) which is actually documented is very difficult to master.

Now I believe digging into FD isn't awfully complex:
- FD is large but modularity didn't grow out of control, with few dependencies between plugins,
- most plugins/tools code is fairly simple to follow,
- code completion / creating a new language context is arguably trickier but it's just a very complex topic in itself anyway so you won't just poke and patch things during a coffee break.

What you need to know (and that I should document) is that:
- almost everything is synchronized using globally dispatched messages (as you'll see in the Sample plugin); most contributors start by sniffing all those events to understand how the information flows in FD,
- PluginCore/PluginBase is where global objects are registered,
- PluginCore/Controls/UITools is where you can listen for text editor events and make custom use of completion lists & tips.

All that said, I can't wait to see the wonderful documentation of the future open source design view

Re: New Files not created with proper CR/LF setting

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 13:06:41 GMT

Sorry to bump this, but is there really no way to tell FD to create new files with just "LF" as a line ending?
Manually setting this each end every time in the file menu is annoying as hell...

Re: How to restore the last opened files?

Same here, also multi-instance. The option is there, but it does not work.

Re: How to restore the last opened files?

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 10:58:08 GMT

This totally suxz. I agree. It is a bug no less..

It should remember last files opened for every individual project on machine.

But there is hope!

FD does remember LAST CLOSED PROJECT files and project then you close FD application, and restores it then you launch FlashDevelop.exe application. (Don't launch FD by using project file.)

Re: How to restore the last opened files?

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 10:55:52 GMT

FD should reopen last opened files by default.

Please show your ASDoc parameters and describe your project files organization - maybe you made a mistake somewhere.

Is it really your logger SWC that ASDoc isn't recognizing? In this case you could create a fake Logger class.

How to restore the last opened files?

info@flashdevelop.org — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 10:06:14 GMT

Hey there,

This bugs me since I am using FD... Each time I close a project, all the files I had opened are gone (from the UI, not from disc ).
In all other IDEs I am used to work with (Visual Studio & NetBeans mostly), the last opened files are opened automatically when you start up a project.

So I just guess this has to be possible in FD, too, I just can't find it

If it is not possble, consider this a feature request

Edit:
Should've stated that I use FD 4.0.0 RC2.
