Instructions for building and running Flex demo projects ----------------------------------------------------------- These demos make use of Box2DAS for physically based behavior. 1) Install TortoiseSVN client from http://tortoisesvn.net/ This will allow you to check out the source using subversion. 2) Get the source code Create a directory somewhere where you want the flex projects to live. right click on that directory and select "SVN checkout" Enter this as the URL of the repository: https://free1.projectlocker.com/Tesujisoft/Flex/svn Keep everything else as default and click ok. Here it should prompt you for authentication. Enter your projectLocker credentials. 3) Install FlashBuilder or FlashDevelop Either will work, but I found FlashBuilder to work better FlashBuilder - Start the IDE, then select create new project - Give the porject a name like "demos" - Uncheck "use default location" and specify the path to <home>/flex_projects. - Click next, and next again in the wizard - on the third step of the wizard, select the source tab, and change the Main application file to Games.mxml or one of the other available mxml files. - Click finish. - Right click on the "demos" (or whatever you named it) project and select "properties" - on the "Library path" tab, click "add SWC". Navigate to "flex_projects\Box2DLib\bin" and add the Box2DLib.swc - Select "Flex Compiler" in the properties for your project and check the Flex 3 compatability mode (this is because we want to use the latest 4.6 compiler, but the code is still using Flex 3) - Right click on Games.mxml (or whichever you set as the Main app) and run. FlashDevelop - - To build the SWC library you will need to get the ExportSWC plugin (http://flashdevelop.org/community/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=2987) - Need to have a java 1.6 jre installed and configure jvm.config to use it. (see http://flashdevelop.org/wikidocs/index.php?title=AS3&oldid=2357#Troubleshooting_problems_using_the_Flex_SDK) - May need to Download msvcr71.dll and place in Windows/System32 - Run FlashDevelop and open flex_projects/flex_projects.as3proj - Press F5 (Project | Test Project) to build and run the Games.mxml - to select a different mxml to build/run right click on the mxml and select "set as document class"
