FDT 3.1 StandAlone

So now that I am moving more to AS3/Flex development I have found myself more and more using Flex Builder to build Flash based applications. I still use FDT 1.5 for AS2 projects because of some odd bugs in FDT 3 that I have seen other developers run into.

With that said I did just get my FDT 3 license and I thought I would start it off with the FDT 3.1 stand alone version. I read that some of the bugs developers ran into are fixed in this version. There are some cool features I thought I would mention in the new FDT stand alone:

Shipped Flex SDK (3.0.477)
- FDT Intro Contribution
- FDT Cheat Sheets
- AIR Debug Launcher as SWF Viewer
- AIR Release Launcher
- SWC Outline view
- QuickTrace..

Eclipse + FDT

So I started using Eclipse + FDT setup. I must say it's very very nice. I like the CVS intergration and FDT's code hints and shortcuts. I still like Flash Develop's cleaner UI, but this is probably the best solution I have seen so far for the Mac yet.
