Eclipse Galileo and Flex Builder Plugin

If you are a Java and Flex developer, and like me have gotten used to working with Eclipse and the Flex Builder Plugin. If you are having problems installing the Flex Builder Plugin for Galileo, I will try to explain how I got it working.

Here is how to install the Flex Builder Plugin in Eclipse Galileo:

  • Download galileo. Or use the zip file, I recommend you try it on a new eclipse folder first, before doing it on the galileo/eclipse you are currently using.
  • Create a links folder underneath the expanded galileo folder. See image for folder structure.
  • In the links folder create a text file, the name should be:
  • com.adobe.flexbuilder.feature.core.link
  • In the file put the following contents, change the path to your specific environment (I put the default here):
  • path=C:/Program Files/Adobe/Flex Builder 3 Plug-in

I hope it works for you too.
