How to install Cocomo with Flex Builder 3 as a Eclipse plugin

[Former Community Member]

Hello.



I got
Eclipse 3.4.1 running on my
Windows XP machine running and installed
Flex Builder 3.0.2
as a plugin.

Now that I downloaded
Cocomo to
start with I ask myself where to put the framework since the
documentation only gives advices for the standalone installation of
FB.



I appreciate some helpful tips.

Hi,



Though I haven't tried myself but can you put the
cocomo.swc(its in lib folder of SDK) in the library path of
Project->properties in Eclipse with the FB plugin and run any
cocomo example using your username,password and RoomUrl? Try out
LoginDialog/DefautPods example to start with.



Thanks

If you just want Cocomo set up so you can play with it I can
tell you how with FlashDevelop.

(google it)

option 1 ) rename CocomoSDK_0.91.zip to CocomoSDK_0.91.jar
and

place it under your eclipse_install_dir/plugins



option 2 ) unzip CocomoSDK_0.91 and place that directory
(NOTE: directory must have plugin.xml in it )

under your eclipse_install_dir/plugins

He levancho.

Thank you for your help. I almost got it with your advice.
Putting it all together it is the following for me:



1) create an Adobe ID at https://cocomo.acrobat.com/

2) unzip CocomoSDK_0.91 and place that directory under your
eclipse_install_dir/plugins

3) create a new Flex Project

4) add the
eclipse_install_dir/plugins/cocomo../lib/player10/afcs.swc to Flex
Build Path / Library path in the project properties

5) Change Flex Compiler / Require Flash Player version to
10.0.0 in the project properties

6) Add the attached code as a test application ...



I found the following tutorial very helpful:

Notice that I changed some namespaces since the given code
did not exactly work for me.



Thank you, Noam
