Importing from Flash Develop

There are currently 2 importers for FlashDevelop, one for importing the general settings and one for importing projects.

Import General Settings

Use this importer first to bring in your global classpath settings.

  1. Go to File -> Import, open the Flash Develop section and choose 'Import FlashDevelop Settings'
  1. Browse to your FlashDevelop install then in the settings folder choose 'Settings.xml'
  1. Thats it.

The importer will create a new project to contain the global classpaths called ‘FD Global Classpath’ where you can see your classpaths as linked folders.

Import a Project

  1. Go to File -> Import, open the Flash Develop section and choose 'Import FlashDevelop Project'
  1. Browse to find the project file (.fdp) and click next
  1. Name the project and click finish

The new project will use a linked folder for any classpaths, so remember if you are editing the files that they are the original project files, not copies.

If you have already imported your settings then the FD Global Classpath project will be automatically added to this new project’s classpath.

Notes

This feature is still in development so please check the wizards development page for details about what is and isnt imported.
