Using Ant with FlexBuilder


I need to run some precompile steps before I build my project using FlexBuilder. I assume I will need to use Ant to do this. Any tutorials that anyone knows of that can help me along my path? I know next to nothing about Ant and Eclipse (FlexBuilder).

Thanks!


Solution

  • I use solely use ant to build all my Flex applications. I wrote a tutorial on how to set up Flex / Ant in a Linux environment, but much can be translated to windows:

    This link is the Adobe's instructions on how to use ant tasks with Flex (everything from installing to compiling your first Flex application):
