Flex Builder 3 on Eclipse 3.5
Sep 29, 2009 AIR, Flash, Flex, General, Resources
I recently tried to upgrade to Eclipse 3.5 on my Ubuntu Linux desktop. Unfortunately this caused some problems with the Flex Builder 3 for Linux alpha 4 . According to the stack traces in Eclipse the main problems seemed to stem from the com.adobe.flexbuilder.project.compiler.internal.ProblemManager class. So I decided to re-write that class from scratch to see if I could make the problems go away.

Our Biggest Launch of the Year!
Sep 28, 2009 AIR, Actionscript 3.0, Flash, Flex, General, Resources, Tutorials, Video Tutorials
In the last three years our Envato Marketplaces ( FlashDen , ThemeForest , GraphicRiver , AudioJungle and VideoHive ) have grown like gangbusters, with big communities, huge libraries of files and lots of activity. So when we set out to redesign them earlier this year everyone on the team knew it was going to be big. What we didn’t realise was HOW big it would eventually get! Today it gives me great pleasure to show you … New Logos Our marketplaces were looking a bit tired in the visual department. After all, these are sites by a company whose middle name is ‘web design’! So we set about reinventing the wheel with a whole new look, starting from the top with new logos.
