I'm working on an application in Flex using Flash Builder 4.7. Now I want to uninstall and install the plugin for FlashBuilder eclipse. I searched in the adobe site but I can't find the link to download the plugin, can anyone help me? I use eclipse 4.3.1

Thank you!

If I remember well, it's the same installer. You just select 'plugin' or 'standalone' during the installation process. – RIAstar

Flash Builder 4.7 only supports running on Eclipse 3.7 or 4.2 (not 4.3). The installation is essentially for a stand-alone version now, but after you have installed, you can go into the Flash Builder installation folder (on Windows that will be under "C:/Program Files/Adobe/Flash Builder 4.7 (64-bit)" or "C:/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Flash Builder 4.7" for the 32-bit version). There is a "utilities" folder with the following program you need to run:

Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 Plug-in Utility.exe

Run that and select your eclipse folder and it should work as a plug-in in your Eclipse. I tested it on Eclipse 4.4 and it would not run. Note, upon running the utility, it will disable it working in stand-alone mode.

If you have the flashbuillder installed on ur machine, then you will have the plugin installer also. Notes from adobe forum below.

  • Navigate to the installed Flash Builder installation location and open the utilities folder.
  • Run the executable Adobe Flash Builder 4.6 Plug-in Utility.exe.
  • Select the language and click on OK.
  • Select the Flash Builder installation location if prompted.
  • Select the Eclipse folder into which you want Flash Builder 4.6 to be plugged into and click Next (Note: Your copy of Eclipse must be version 3.6/3.6.1/3.6.2/3.7, 32-bit and must contain a folder named “dropins”)
  • Review the pre-Installation summary and click on Install
