The
ActionScript 3.0 components contain all their source code to reduce
compilation time when you compile your application. The Flash debugger,
however, cannot inspect code inside compiled clips. Therefore, if
you want to debug your application down into the components' source
code, you must add the component source files to your Classpath
setting.
The location of the component package folders is relative to
the location of the source files for the component type. To reference
all of the ActionScript 3.0 source files for all UI components,
add the following location to your Classpath for the User Interface
packages:
Note:
This will override the compiled-in code for
all UI components and increase compilation time for your application.
If you have changed a component’s source file for any reason, that
component might exhibit different behavior as a result.
To set the Classpath, select Preferences from the Edit menu and
then select ActionScript from the Category list and click the ActionScript
3.0 Settings button. To add a new entry, click the plus above the
window that displays the current settings.
The
$(AppConfig)
variable refers to the Flash
CS5 Configuration folder in the location where you installed Flash
CS5. Typically, the path looks like this:
Note:
If you must change a component source file,
Adobe strongly recommends that you copy the original source file
to a different location and add that location to your Classpath.
