Setting up the Popforge library.

Introduction

This manual will guide you through the process of setting up the Popforge library project. In this example we will use FlexBuilder 3 but theoretically all of our projects can be compiled using the command line.

Requirements

If you do not have Subversive installed make sure to look at the installation instructions.

Creating the Popforge library project

Follow these steps to create a library project in FlexBuilder:

Sharing the project

By following these instructions your library project will be connected to our code repository at Google Code.

Now Subversive should download the PopforgeLibrary project into your workspace.

Selecting the classes to include

When the download process is finished you have to specify the classes that should be included in the library.

It is important to remember this step. After each update you should make sure to include all classes to the library. They are not added automatically.

Now to make sure everything is working check the "bin" directory of the PopforgeLibrary project. If you see a "PopforgeLibrary.swc" file there you are ready to go.

The google code url should start with https and you should mention you'll need a google code login/password to get access too.

Only if you want to edit the source code afaik. This means you would have to be added to the project. If you use http you can get the latest version but you will not be able to commit. Or is that wrong?

No thats correct, the only time you need https access to the svn is if you want/need/have privileges to commit.

using FB2 on a mac, subversive asks for user name and password, strange as I am not using https link. any ideas?

i'm having the same problem as casciato.... FB2 on mac asks for username / pass

Comment by casciato, Oct 21, 2007

Hey, ilike, the best thing to do is download the 9.27.07 build and use that as to build the library. I also had to move de folder one level back, on the same level as src, and use that as the main source folder. But it worked!

Hi all! Casciato... so you couldn't find a way to have automatic upgrades on mac, right? the manual setup works fine, but will it be ok to just overwrite the 'popforge' folder manually in order to upgrade? have you tried it?

thnx!

Hello d4weed,

Haven't completely overwritten a working FB project, nope.

I have however checked out the newest version and got it working on FB3 beta 3 with the Flex 3 SDK. But I haven't tried setting up svn in FB3 (cuz git is gonna take over the world, right ;) and there hasn't been much development on the popforge (nudge nudge Andre and Joa).

Dudes and dudettes, my first popforge project!

does this work with flash3 too?

Comment by vincentpants, Jul 24, 2008

Is it possible to use Flex exclusively as a complier and not even bother with Eclipse? I downloaded the trunk, so I feel like I could locally include the src path of the downloaded trunk. This is my first excursion into Flex, so I don't know really why one needs to use Flex as a server for popforge. Any help would be awesome.

Would I be able to use this library to load and play an external wav file?
