I’m having a very strange bug in Flex Builder where none of the changes I make are appearing when I debug/run my program. It only happens with a particular AS3 project, on others, it works fine.
For example, I have a line,var x:int = this.prevX + this.x;, whose value is 400 if I don’t make any changes. I change the line to var x:int = 0; and set a breakpoint on the line. When I debug the program, it breakpoints just where it should, but the value is set to 400, even when the line is x = 0! What gives!
I’ve tried cleaning the project and deleting the project and re-importing it. No matter what I do, it won’t show any changes I make, even if I just toggle a boolean. It still won’t let me compile with errors, but once its done compiling, it completely ignore whatever changes I made. It’s like it has the bytecode for the swf cached somewhere and its just ignoring doing the actual build step.
Any ideas?
Check if you have a copy of the swf in the html-template folder. The newly compiled swf will be overwritten by that old one after each build. Happened to me once.
