Flex2 And Eclipse – Editor

I have been trying to get a Flex2 setup working on bog-standard Eclipse.

So far here are the instructions for the editor.

In order to get Eclipse setup for editing:

1. Download latest Eclipse (3.2.2 as of writing).

2. Install Eclipse and start it up.

3. Go to Help/Software Updates/Find And Install

4. Select the Callisto download

5. Download everything

6. Go to Darron Shalls blog here and follow his instructions for setting the editor up. You will need the mxml XSD file which is no longer bundled with Flex. Get it from Simeon Batemans blog here.

Thanks to these guys who took the time to work this stuff out.

Now, lets see if we can integrate the compiler into Eclipse.
