Flash Builder 4.5 , J2EE plugin - apache-flex

I need to install the J2EE plugin for my flash builder 4.5 as I am using the blazeDS for my development work. I installed stand alone flash builder 4.5 and java plugin but not able to find any information to install J2EE plugin or Dynamic Web project developement plugin.
Ref: http://blogs.adobe.com/jasonsj/2010/06/java_development_in_flash_builder_4_standalone.html
Please help me if possible.
thanks

I recommend you to install Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers and then install Flash Builder plug-in there according to instructions. In reality, it won't create new files in Eclipse folder but creates a link to the Flash Builder installation.

How to use Spring 5.0 in NetBeans 8.2?

When I create a Java Web project in NetBeans and select a Framework, in this case Spring Web MVC, only two options appear:
Version 4.0.1
Version 3.2.7
You can do this in Netbeans:
Download the Spring Framework you need from here
Extract the contents of the archive and copy the contents of the lib directory to your netbeans location e.g /home/stanley/netbeans-8.2/java/modules/ext/spring-(version) e.g 5.1.4
On your netbeans go to Tools > Libraries > New Library
Name your Library as Spring Framework (version) e.g 5.1.4 and add all the jars from the location in 2 above.
Restart your netbeans application.
You should have the new Framework as shown in the diagram below:
TL;DR
The easiest way to create a new spring project is using Spring Initializr. All you need to do is fill in the form, download the project, unzip it and open in NetBeans.
Explanation
Regardless of a language and IDE, it is usually good idea to create a new project based on a standard build-tool for the language's ecosystem and avoid creating an IDE-specific project. That makes it easier to share the project with people who use a different IDE and switch your IDE in the middle of the project.
There are several build-tools for Java ecosystem but I'd suggest to pay attention to two of them: Maven and Gradle. Those are most widespread and supported by IDEs.
NetBeans supports Maven out of box. It supports Gradle too but in 8.2 you are supposed to install a support plugin for Gradle (from Tools -> Plugins menu).
You can generate a new Maven or Gradle project using NetBeans. Select corresponding menu item when selecting the type of the project.
Then you will have to add the dependencies of the project to its descriptor (pom.xml for Maven or build.gradle for Gradle). See the documentation for the build-tool of your choice to understand how exactly to do that.
Spring provides Spring Initializr service to generate a new project based on spring's libraries. It is the easiest way for a quick start.
Since you are using Netbeans and it supports Maven out of the box, you can get an existing Maven archetype to setup a basic Spring application for you to start from.
Although there isn't any official archetype, there are a lot of really nice 3rd party ones like https://github.com/kolorobot/spring-mvc-quickstart-archetype
The steps to start a new project are quite fast and straight forward (Netbeans 11)
File -> New Project -> Java with Maven -> Project from archetype
In the search filter enter spring-mvc-quickstart-archetype, enter your project details and click Finish

What is the right way to customize Alfresco 4.2.2 Enterprise?

Some times ago, I used Alfresco 5.2 CE. When I needed to develop some kind of customization, I used the Alfresco Maven SDK with three different Maven archetypes, it was:
Alfresco Repository AMP;
Alfresco Share AMP;
Alfresco all-in-one (AIO).
By using this SDK I developed AMP files that overlaid on either the alfresco.war or share.war by using the module management tool (MMT):
...
java -jar bin/alfresco-mmt.jar install amps/some-customization-share.amp tomcat/webapps/share.war -force
java -jar bin/alfresco-mmt.jar install amps/some-customization-repo.amp tomcat/webapps/alfresco.war -force
...
Now I am using Alfresco 4.2.2 Enterprise and looking for the right way to do the same things that I did with Alfresco 5.2 CE.
Let's say, I want to develop a two tier Spring Surf customization that can remotely connect to different repositories. Or, for example, I need to develop a new Spring Surf page for a site, or just make some little changes in some FTL-template.
What is the right way? Is there a similar SDK for Alfresco 4.2.2 Enterprise?
I would be very grateful for the information. Thanks to all.
The Maven-based Alfresco 3.0 SDK is compatible with Alfresco 4.2, both Enterprise and Community Edition.

Flash buider eclipse plugin

I'm working on an application in Flex using Flash Builder 4.7.
Now I want to uninstall and install the plugin for FlashBuilder eclipse.
I searched in the adobe site but I can't find the link to download the plugin, can anyone help me?
I use eclipse 4.3.1
Thank you!
Flash Builder 4.7 only supports running on Eclipse 3.7 or 4.2 (not 4.3). The installation is essentially for a stand-alone version now, but after you have installed, you can go into the Flash Builder installation folder (on Windows that will be under "C:/Program Files/Adobe/Flash Builder 4.7 (64-bit)" or "C:/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Flash Builder 4.7" for the 32-bit version). There is a "utilities" folder with the following program you need to run:
Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 Plug-in Utility.exe
Run that and select your eclipse folder and it should work as a plug-in in your Eclipse. I tested it on Eclipse 4.4 and it would not run. Note, upon running the utility, it will disable it working in stand-alone mode.
If you have the flashbuillder installed on ur machine, then you will have the plugin installer also. Notes from adobe forum below.
Navigate to the installed Flash Builder installation location and
open the utilities folder.
Run the executable Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 Plug-in Utility.exe.
Select the language and click on OK.
Select the Flash Builder installation location if prompted.
Select the Eclipse folder into which you want Flash Builder 4.6 to
be plugged into and click Next
(Note: Your copy of Eclipse must be
version 3.6/3.6.1/3.6.2/3.7, 32-bit and must contain a folder named
“dropins”)
Review the pre-Installation summary and click on Install

How to make a FlexBean plugin cooperate with maven flex project

I have a flex maven project written by externel company that I need to modify. I dont have a Flash Builder licence yet (it takes forever to buy anythng in my company) .
I installed Netbeans 6.5 and FlexBean but when i opended flex maven project the action script code is ont recognized as action script by the IDE. Ho to make it "flex aware" ?
nb 6.5 is fairly old. does the flexbean integration require such old version?
some 3rd party tools might not integrate with the maven project type in netbeans and only do so with the default ant based projects.. if that's the case I suggest filing an issue against flexbean

Installing Flex Builder Plugin on Eclipse 3.5 (galileo) Mac Cocoa 64bit

Is there a way to get the Flex Builder plugin working on the latest Eclipse running on the Mac?
I've read that there is no hope with the Cocoa/64 bit version, but some report it works with the Carbon version.
I need the 64bit/cocoa version on the Mac in order to have access to the JDK6 libraries via the embedded maven support in the Eclipse IAM plugin.
Unfortunately Eclipse 3.5 is unsupported by Flex Builder 3. There are a few bugs for this:
http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-21025
http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FB-21284
Please comment on those bugs and vote for them.
Try this one. That worked for me. I have Eclipse Galileo (3.5) and FlexBuilder 3.0
Goto your Eclipse Installation (example my installation is C:\eclipse) and there to this folder: C:\eclipse\links
Open File or create com.adobe.flexbuilder.feature.core.link and type in this text:
path=C:/Program Files/Adobe/Flex Builder 3 Plug-in
In my case the word path was missing. After that restart your Galileo and it should work.
