This is an outstanding article. Very well written and extremely comprehensive. You’re absolutely right you can’t develop in a black box and it’s great to see how other devs set up their workflow. Thanks for sharing. I’ve always just used svn from the command line and it’s great to learn how easy it is to integrate subclipse with Flex/Flash Builder.

One thing to note you might consider trying MAMP again if you’re on a Mac box. You can easily configure your webroot through the main panel under preferences->apache. I agree having it point to the default htdocs dir is not ideal. It’s just a really easy tool to setup databases since it has a phpmyadmin built in and ready to go.

Thanks again for the awesome tutorial.

Cheers,
Stephen

By all means link back to it from your site (using the intro paragraph as a taster, for example) but don’t copy + paste the entire content.

Thanks!

I actually got this to work out, for some reason I screwed something up when I refactored the code, I did everything from scratch again but didn’t refactor the code and it worked fine.

Incredible article, can’t wait to see more.

When I try to use the ASDoc Generator I get this error message:
command line: Error: unable to open ‘/Users/MY_NAME/Documents/Flex Builder 3/FlashCamo2/bin’

Use ‘asdoc -help’ for information about using the command line.

I have everything set up the way it is in the tutorial:
-doc-sources src -output docs -window-title “${project_name}” -main-title “${project_name}” -external-library-path=”/Users/MY_NAME/Documents/Flex Builder 3/FlashCamo2/bin”

Anyone have any idea why this is, I’ve spent a full day trying to get this to work, it’s very frustrating.

Very comprehensive explanation. I’d just like to say one thing about MAMP. You can set the directory for where your document root is by going to Preferences > Apache and editing the Document Root field.
