Flex Support on Mac OS with IntelliJ 8.1? Follow

Hi Eric!
You can either use Flex module instead of Flex facet,
or update your IDEA to the latest EAP
(http://www.jetbrains.net/confluence/display/IDEADEV/Diana+EAP). Flex
facet configuration is more simple there, you'll only need to choose
Flex SDK from a combobox (only at first time you'll need to configure
Flex SDK at Project Structure -> Platform Settings -> JDKs).

Hi all,

I'm trying to use IntelliJ with Flex 3, but I cannot get my Flex facet to work. IntelliJ wants the path to the flex SDK, which I specified to be: /Users/erikp/Downloads/flex_sdk_3.0.2.2113, and a flex sdk library name. No idea what that is, but the dropdown shows 'grails', 'grails-1.0.4' and 'grails
-1.1' . I cannot imagine I have to pick anything from that, so I typed 'flex 3 library'. When pressing 'apply', IntelliJ will scan the directories, and end up with the message: 'Library <libraryname> containing Flex SDK does not exist', with a button: 'create library'. Pressing it doesn't work: it g
ives me the same message again. Pressing it twice, however, does remove the message, but doesn't create global library, and pressing 'apply' again results in the previous message: 'Library <name> does not exists'. Creating the library (with the 'create library button' doesn't seem to have any effect
.

On a side note: doing this procedure for some time, and clicking around, caused my memory usage to increase from 300 mb to 750 mb.

My question is: how can I get the Flex SDK to work nicely on my Mac? I'd like to have some code completion, and remove the errors produced by IntelliJ in my mxml files.

Erik

Very sorry for incorrect name. I meant "Hi Erik!" :)

Alexander, thanks for the help! And thanks for the name correction: you're the first one ever (in 29 years) to misspell it and to correct yourself!!!! Cool !! ;)
