Extending Flash Builder

My MAX Presentation

By David Zuckerman ⋅ October 7, 2007 ⋅ Post a comment

Here’s my presentation from MAX. It’s all the content, minus my bad jokes.

> Presentation

> Advanced Class Browser Demo

Thanks to everyone who attended, I appreciate you guys not walking out until the very end :) And thanks to everyone who attended MAX and talked my ear off. It’s great to hear responses from users, and it’s even better to get to you know you guys and put more faces to the names. Next year in San Francisco…

  1. You put on a great show at MAX. Thanks for the hard work! See you in SF (assuming you aren’t going to the next round of 360|Flex’s )

  2. Nice talk at Max. After the session you were busy, so here I’m going to leave some questions about the Flex Builder:

    1-In Flex Builder, when we use the ctrl+space shortcut after a variable or a method, Flex Builder display a list of elements (properties, getters/setters, effects, events, …) It would be interesting to have the most probable elements on the top of the list depending of the return type. Do you plan to implement this feature? Ex: var test:String = myObject.[ctrl+space] would display on top of the list the String elements.

    2-It would be interesting to have several ctrl+space like shortcuts to filter the elements of a list. Ex: ctrl+space+e would display only the events elements in the list. Is it a possibility? It would be certainly easy with the code model you talked about in your session.

    Thank you.

  3. 1.) We’ve got a bug open on this in our system somewhere, and it’s on our list of things to do.

    2.) I like this idea, and yes code model can support this. We actually do something similar when you do addEventListener(

    You should file an enhancement request for number 2. Thanks!

  4. :(

    Sorry mate but with FB3 I cant access the
    com.adobe.flexbuilder.editors.derived.images.DerivedImages
    class which you use to set the icons for the labels. Has this been changed?

  5. Hmm, I thought I made sure those classes would be available downstream. I would recommend either skipping the icons or copying the icons into that plugin and referencing them that way. You can find them in com.adobe.flexbuilder.derived/icons

    Good luck!
