Installing Adobe Flex builder in Ubuntu/Linux? - apache-flex

Is working fine?, i found instruction in Adobe site confusing and i am not confident at all since it says that only works with eclipse 3.3 (actual version should be 3.5 or close)
There is any special instructions to do it well.
Thanks!

Unless you're talking about the Alpha version (found here: Adobe Flex Builder 3 for Linux), it's not going to work at all. The commercial version doesn't support Linux.
I've used the Linux beta previously and the install worked well (it's a Flash based installer) so you shouldn't have any issues.

I think you will get clear picture form this article. http://articles.tutorboy.com/linux/install-flex-builder-on-ubuntu-as-eclipse-plugin.html

QWebView which version of webkit supported?

I am new to Qt. What I understand is Qt is porting webview from webkit. [Correct me if i am wrong]. and I could not able to find which version of the webkit is ported into Qt 5.0 or higher version.
Kindly suggest me how to find?
It's running on WebKit2, which specific version is a bit more tricky to find out, but you should be able to look through the Qt repository on gitorious to determine it. If I remember rightly it changes depending on how you've built Qt5 and where from.
Seems to be a 3-4 months old snapshot, see the git repo for the included commits.

Where I can download Flash Builder 4.0 Premium Trial version?

I went to adobe site. It have Flash Builder 4.5/4.6 now. where I can download older
version(4.0)?
The links at the bottom of this page are still good: http://www.mydigitallife.info/adobe-flash-builder-4-free-download-with-serial-number/
I had to remove other versions of Flash Builder using the Adobe Suite Cleaner Tool (downloadable here: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html) for it to run.
Apparently you can't : http://forums.adobe.com/thread/850869
Here's all I could find : http://www.adobe.com/support/flex/downloads_updaters.html#flex4
We found licenced version of older virsion(FB4.0) at amazon.
Concluding: We cannot get older version trial from adobe.
After you install 4.0 from the links in the other posts you can get the patch update to 4.0.1 with this link:

flex plugin on eclipse

This is not a programming question but i wanted to know How to install flex plugin for eclipse on ubuntu.Point me to any links for this.Eclipse is already installed.Thanks...
Flash Builder is not supported on any form of Linux.
You might try FDT, which has support for Linux.
IntelliJ also supports Linux, however is not eclipse based.
You can make flash builder run in linux using wine. Intellij Is decent, but fall way short in flex development. ( except re factoring of course ;))
search google for "flexbuilder in linux" + wine. You will get multiple results including this one.

Adobe Flex Development on Ubuntu

I'm thinking the following:
Netbeans + FlexBeans
Maven + FlexMojos
However:
FlexBeans just doesn't compare with FlexBuilder
Not sure FlexMojos supports Flex 4
How do you guys manage to develop Flex apps on Ubuntu?
I personally prefer Netbeans to Eclipse. Netbeans has very good Maven project support. So I am thinking of:
"Extending" FlexMojos to work with Flex 4
Forking or developing from scratch a good Flex plugin for Netbeans\
Any ideas?
I've been developing with Flex on Ubuntu for the last 6 months with IntelliJ IDEA 9.
Besides many interesting features (that Flex Builder 3 does not have), the editor supports Maven and FlexMojos nicely. You can actually just import your poms directly into IDEA and it will create all configurations for you. This is also interesting if you are using a build server that uses Maven so you don't have to maintain multiple build configurations.
IntelliJ IDEA: http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/
FlexMojos: http://code.google.com/p/flex-mojos/
Give a go to FDT, they've just added MXML support. It's not cheap by any means, but worth trying.
Cheers, J
However:
* Not sure FlexMojos supports Flex 4

Adobe is working on a Linux version of Flex Builder.
SapphireSteel has a plugin for Visual Studio called Amethyst
Ensemble has another one called Tofino
I develop Flex apps that run on Linux. I run VMWare on Centos and run Vista on that and have FlexBuilder installed in the virtual machine. It works pretty well since I found the Linux FlexBuilder to be very buggy and I can still use Linux for everything else.
There is an unsanctioned project to get Flash Builder 4 to run on Linux. I have tried it out and it works very well. The only real missing feature is design mode.

Does FlexBuilder 3 work with Eclipse 3.5.1?

I m trying to install Flex Builder 3 into Eclipse 3.5.1 as a plugin on Mac 10.6.2.
During the installation phase, FB3 says it only support eclipse 3.3 & 3.4. But I started the installation anyway.
After the installation was done, I can't find Flex perspective from Eclipse. So I google around and found out the possible way to manually add this link file from folder "links" to point to the FB3 Plugin folder. I did that and FB perspective can be shown now. But when I try to switch to FB perspective, error occurs:
Problems opening perspective:
'com.adobe.flexbuilder.editors.mxml.ui.perspectives.development'
Anyone has done this successfully?
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.
I've created a work-around for one of the major issues related to displaying problems.
