Downgrade FlashBuilder project

I have a Flash-Builder Flex project that was created (or upgraded) using FB 4.7.

I am using Flash-Builder 4, and the IDE doesn't recognize the project as a Flex project, so I can't import it into the IDE.

What are my options here? Is there a quick way of downgrading the project to a FB4 project?

Solution

  • 1- SOLUTION 1 : verify your ".project" file: check if the project description is ok 

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<projectDescription>
    <name>MyProjectName</name>
    <comment></comment>
    <projects>
    </projects>
    <buildSpec>
        <buildCommand>
            <name>com.adobe.flexbuilder.project.flexbuilder</name>
            <arguments>
            </arguments>
        </buildCommand>
    </buildSpec>
    <natures>
        <nature>com.adobe.flexbuilder.project.flexnature</nature>
        <nature>com.adobe.flexbuilder.project.actionscriptnature</nature>
    </natures>
</projectDescription>

    2- SOLUTION 2 : put your project into your workspace and create a new project with the same name of your project folder name (for exp: if your project folder name "myproject" - create a new flex project with name "myproject"), this will create a new flex project with your old source code.
