However, much like Vista x64 before it Win7 x64 doesn’t play nice with Flex Builder. I still have issues with blank dialogs (for which I found a work around) but now I have an issue with adding build paths.

When this problem first reared it’s head I tried looking at the project meta files and was unable to get a fix. Since I also work on a MacBook Pro where everything works fine, I left it be until I saw this post on the actionscript.org forum. While posting a response detailing my experience with the bug it occurred to me that this all worked fine on Mac OS so I should probably have the proper build path entries in my project meta files on my Mac.

Sure enough the entries were there:

<compilerSourcePath>
      <compilerSourcePathEntry kind="1" linkType="1" path="properties"/>
      <compilerSourcePathEntry kind="1" linkType="1" path="locale/{locale}"/>
</compilerSourcePath>

At this point I’m not really sure what the kind and linkType properties are for other than the fact that 1 is the default for both of them. I’ll post back as I found out more. In the meantime this has allowed me to add build paths to my projects with Flex Builder 3 on Windows 7 x64.

UPDATE.

Seems turning off the Logitech software I use for my mouse and keyboard resolves this problem altogether.

UPDATE 2.

Recently upgraded SetPoint (the driver software for my mouse and keyboard) to version 5.10.9 and now all my windows are working just fine in Flex Builder :)
