I really appreciate this tutorial. I’ve been developing in Flash for a long time and wanted to jump up to a superior IDE / editor. I like what I’m seeing with IntelliJ IDEA and almost have this working on Win 7… if I open the .bat file, it works… but if I try to do that from within IntelliJ (11) then in gives a weird error:

AbstractMethodError: Error during dispatching of java.awt.event.MouseEvent…:

com.intellij.execution.configurations.CommandLineState.startProcess()Lcom/intellij/execution/process/ProcessHandler;

If you have a free moment (no assumptions that you do), perhaps you might be able to give me an idea what I’m doing wrong? Or where to look to solve this? I know JSFL inside out, so if I just understood a bit more about how info is passed back and forth between IntelliJ and Flash CS4′s output / reporting… I might be able to tighten this up a bit for windows. (I might need to learn more about Batch file stuff, too)

Thanks for any input! And for the great info you posted!

Hey, what a cool trick, you got “mad” skills. I’m running IDEA 10 on Snow Leopard. I’m finding that Actionscript compilation is painfully slow compared to an Actionscript project in Flex Builder. Any idea why? (I do have “Build Automatically”) turned off.

I think it’s because the .actionsScriptProperties file in a Flex project tells the compiler not to bother with a bunch of stuff it doesn’t need for straight up Actionscript, where as IDEA always includes everything needed for Flex. Not sure if this makes sense, my understanding of the flash compilers is not strong.

Speaking of which, have you tried the Hellfire compiler? http://bytecode-workshop.com

works great, was having issues with the flash debugger and intelli j so was perfect..

how would you recommend using flash assets though? you can’t include the swc as a dependency like you would normally in intelli j because its not building the project right? I was thinking maybe just adding my assets and classes to that main fla but then they’ll display as unrecognized type by intelli j which could get confusing.. any thoughts?

Hey,

I have seen this also, it seems to be fixed in Snow Leopard and break in anything earlier. What are you running?

thanks

Hey, thanks for the tutorial and script! Unfortunately the bash plugin gives me a fatal startup error
