I filed this bug this morning and thought it deserves a post as it took me quite a while to figure out how to do this. Now I know you won't necessarily be migrating for Flex 2 SDK to Flex 3 but you might and if you do please read on.

Here is the official bug. In a nutshell the problem is when you compile a project using the FDT Application features for AS3 projects with the Flex 2 SDK. I then migrated to the Flex 3 Beta SDK and the project was still compiling using the Flex 2 SDK. WTF?

This post is aimed at beginner Actionscripters. It covers all the basics of setting up Eclipse and FDT environment to develop some kick-ass websites in a more structured Object Orientated approach. From managing workspaces to connecting with repositories, this document should be all-inclusive for any new Actionscripter who wants to start doing some serious Flash projects. If I missed something please feel free to comment or send it to me so I can update this post.
