For Flex, you should be able to create a new project and make these projects dependencies. For FlexJS, maybe you can create that default existing project for us. >4. I compile the project and run it.

For FlexJS, I think you can install FlexJS as a Flex SDK and use it as the SDK for your project and you should be ok. Give it a try.

Those rules slow us down, but in theory are the price to pay to make corporations feel comfortable using our software, and supposedly, that’s where the money is for our future. You are welcome to donate more of your code to Apache Flex and get it into the default SDK. If you wrote the code before becoming a committer, you have to go through the Software Grant process again for significant code bases. Small stuff you can probably just commit, although a discussion before doing so would be recommended. -Alex
