One of the new features of IntelliJ 7 is the support for Adobe's
Flex language. You can enable this support by going to the project
properties and adding a Flex facet, where you can specify the path to
the Flex SDK. I set it up, but there was none of the expected IDE help
for the ActionScript classes: no code-completion, class/type
suggestions, not even syntax highlighting. Some Googling reveals a few
more requirements: the JavaScript support plugin must be enabled (which
it was) and the File Type needs to be registered for *.as files. In my
setup, it was set to "Text files", adding the file pattern to
JavaScript files (with a prompt asking if you'd like to reassign it from
the existing text files setting -- very nice) and hitting OK then set
off a somewhat lengthy parse of the ActionScript classes in the project.
The Flex support is now working.
Kudos to Serge Baranov for the extremely quick support response and helpful guidance.
