About Swfmill:
FlashDevelop uses Swfmill to build SWF files without the Adobe Flash IDE. The setup may not include the latest version of Swfmill so it is advised to check Swfmill website for new releases (ie. Swfmill pre-release builds).

FlashDevelop 2.0.2 release is up to date and doesn't need to be patched.

* Help Panel, local & online help search,
* FlashBuild, ANT-like automation (automate MTASC and/or command line applications),
* Find & Replace (advanced selective search and replace operations),
* ToDo panel (simple and efficient),
* GENiAS, Code Generator for ActionScript (very usefull for component developers),

Check Danny's great step-by-step tutorial on how to configure FlashDevelop for AS3


Configuring Adobe Flex 2 compiler integration

- check you have the Java 1.5 runtime installed,
- check the path to the Flex 2 SDK in the program settings (ASCompletion.Flex2SDK.Path entry): set it to the sdk root folder.

Activating AS3 completion*

- Download the AS3 intrinsic classes (mirror),
- unzip anywhere and add these classes to your project classpath (or global classpath** if you don't do AS2 at all).

* doesn't support (ignores) package-level members, namespaces and private classes.
** Press Ctrl+F9 to open the global classpath dialog

Removing AS2 artifacts (cleaner AS3 support)

- Download the AS3 top-level declaration,
- unzip anywhere (but not in the AS3 intrinsic classes),
- remove all references to Macromedia in the global classpath**,
In the program settings:
- set the AS3 top-level declarations as the ASCompletion.Macromedia.Classpath,
- set ASCompletion.MTASC.UseStdClasses to false.

Activating MXML completion

- Download the MXML definition file,
- unzip into C:\Program Files\FlashDevelop\Data\

Building using Adobe Flex2 compiler

- AS3/MXML Quick Build using the custom @mxmlc tag (fastest compilation time!),

or
- Keith Peters' ANT-based project templates (updated),
- unzip into C:\Program Files\FlashDevelop\Data\ProjectTemplates\
- to run ANT with a toolbar button, edit \Settings\ToolBar.xml:

or
- FlashBuild plugin - (see Sam Coles' FlashBuild & Flex2 tutorial),

Tracing in FlashDevelop

- AS3 ports of FlashOut and FlashConnect.

Adobe ASDoc integration

- Integrating Adobe ASDoc in 5 minutes

You can build Adobe Apollo applications using FlashDevelop
