Top 10 Flex Builder 4 features
The Flash Catalyst (formerly Thermo) and Flex Builder 4 session has just ended and Adobe's speakers presented us many cool stuff.
This is a top ten list of features of Flex Builder 4:
- Package Explorer: it navigates into the ActionScript classes of a SWC file
- File Template: finally we'll be able to create template files to use in our Flex 4 projects
- Improved Refactoring: you can now move classes from different packages
- Class code hints: mouse overing a class of the Flex 4 SDK you'll get the Livedocs hint for that class
- Generate Getter/Setter: at least !
- Generate event handler: as soon as you associate and event to a function, Flex Builder 4 will automatically autogenerates the event handler declared
- Conditional Breakpoints for debugging
- Improvements on Debugging
- Flex Unit support
- Network Monitor: yes it's back. If you were a Flex Builder 1.0 users you know how cool it is :)
Give us UML!

The most ridiculous thing I've noticed about Flex debugging is the fact that the watch window honors scope. So if you are in global scope and expand on an instance of an object in the locals watch window you only see public properties/variables. WTF?
