Flex Builder 4 – MAX 2008 Preview

November 21st, 2008 by Gabor Wraight

This video gives an overview of the new features in Flex Builder 4. These are:

  • Package Explorer with outline view where you can even navigate into the ActionScript classes of a SWC file. Also you have the Flex Framework in here.
  • File Templates which allow you to define templates for Classes, Interfaces, CSS and MXML
  • Improved Refactoring with moving of classes
  • Class code hints if you mouse over you’ll get the ASDocs for that class
  • Generate Getters and Setters
  • Generate event handler e.g. when you define a click action on an Button you can automatically generate the Handler with one click.
  • Jump to Line in Debugger
  • Conditional Breakpoints(I Love this one)
  • Network Monitor, yes it’s back!
  • Flex Unit support

I’m so looking forward to a stable beta release.
