Flash Builder getting in the way of work...
Today was not a good day at work. I found myself dealing more with getting my tool (Flash Builder) to do what I want than actually writing code. Flash Builder was giving me a lot of trouble which was a not-appreciated throwback to those college years when I was setting Eclipse for the first time. The problem (after much googling around) is that I was trying to debug a code that was not in sync with the SWF I was playing. The symptom is the following: “Breakpoint cannot be set here because there is no executable code at this line” Solutions (no particular order): Clear your browser’s cache. Chrome ⇧⌘Delete Safari ⌥⌘E Firefox: Tools > Clear Recent History > All IE: www.getfirefox.com The location you are debugging (your SWF) in is not the same as the one where your changes are compiling.
