No ColdFusion/Flex Application Wizard Love for OS X

January 17th, 2007 admin Leave a comment Go to comments

Maybe I'm missing something here (I sincerely hope I am). After reading Ben's post on the new CF Demo I was all fired up to try it for myself. This is the greeting I received when I attempted to run the plug-in. 

Flex Application Wizard on OS X
 
My heart sank with disappointment.  Now don't get me wrong, I'm not purposely trying to be an ungrateful complainer. I'm very happy to have FlexBuilder 2.01 on my beloved Mac. This is more of a desperate cry for help as I'm hoping someone out there can tell me I'm wrong and I need to do X and it will be fixed. Anyone?

If the ColdFusion/Flex Application Wizard is indeed Windows specific then I can accept that because I'm sure that there's a perfectly reasonable explanation.

Just in case anyone is curious about my environment, I'm running FlexBuilder 2.01 as an Eclipse 3.2 plug-in and  yes I disabled and uninstalled the old extension before adding the new one.

    I read your post and see I’m having the same issue. Did you find a solution, or are we OSX ers just out of luck. From the demos and video of the wizard, I was excited also. I have Flex3 and Cold Fusion 8 Developer version.

    Thanks for any response.

    Same here. As of today, it works on Windows but nothing for OSX. Trying to find tutorials that explain how to create the same files manually.

    This is one more reason why I think CF will ultimately be EOF’d by Adobe. Macromedia kind of put CF down a dead end street. Its Java-based, yet its main target continues to be Windows. Adobe has two choices in my opinion. One, stop being so Windows-centric. Two, abandon Java and put CF on .Net.
