Hi Alexander, Will build the SDK this afternoon on my office computer (not a thing I wanted to do as I haven't any allocated time for that) and will try to use your uploaded project, thanks a lot.
Btw, while you here, can you tell me what C:\Program Files (x86)\JetBrains\IntelliJ IDEA 13.0\plugins\flex\lib\idea-fdb-4.5.0.20967-fix.jar is for ? (I think to remember it is something about a fix relative to the inner MXML tag->AS3 code but not sure, if it is the case, is that can be fixed from inside the Apache Flex project ?) PS: I tried already to use the AIR FDB with no luck :P Frédéric THOMAS > Date: Wed, 15 Jan 2014 14:37:24 +0400 > From: alexander.doros...@jetbrains.com > To: dev@flex.apache.org > Subject: Re: FDB vs FB debugging ? > > Hi, > in my understanding FB uses the same low-level (protocol) code as FDB, > but a bit different high-level wrapper.
