I was working on my game, when I noticed that a new version of OpenFL, Lime (if I remember correcly) and swf had been published. I updated the libraries, opened FlashDevelop again, and continued making my game. After a while, instead of successfully compiling on Flash, my IDE printed this error message on console;

Running process: C:\Program Files (x86)\FlashDevelop\Tools\fdbuild\fdbuild.exe "C:\Users\Juha\Documents\Haxe Programs\Time4You\Time4You.hxproj" -ipc 1192a496-8b1d-4775-a939-9caf24483487 -version "3.1.3" -compiler "C:\HaxeToolkit\haxe" -library "C:\Program Files (x86)\FlashDevelop\Library" -target "flash"

Any ideas what could cause this or how I could fix this?

You could try rolling back to the previous libs? What does your haxelib list say?

Also you could try the -D legacy compiler flag

Did you update each library individually? If you're using an engine of some sort ( eg haxe flixel ) there might be a version mismatch. If so, a haxelib upgrade might work.

I'd probably try these ( in reverse order ) before digging into exactly what has changed in the updated libs, if you haven't already

  • Hi, thanks for the comment. I had updated the libraries with 'haxelib upgrade' command, and I'm not using any engines. Using -Dlegacy compiler flag unfortunately didn't help. I also tried setting my library versions to previous, but it didn't help either. My other project still works for some reason, so maybe I could create a new project and then copy the assets and classes there? – Kalakuh Apr 17 '15 at 11:36

    Hmmm, does it work in release mode? Or for other targets ( eg neko ) - thinking it might be related to fdb / Java heap size as in http://www.flashdevelop.org/community/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=6006 – Oliver Apr 17 '15 at 11:46
  • It works for HTML5 and Neko (I've not tried others), but it doesn't work for Flash either in Debug or Release mode. – Kalakuh Apr 17 '15 at 11:53

    Perhaps something in lime-tools isn't working for flash target - could try removing lime-tools from haxelib and reinstalling... Does the other working project you mentioned use lime-tools ( and the same version )? – Oliver Apr 17 '15 at 12:37
  • Hmm... I finally managed to locate the problem, there was one line in the project.xml which caused the bug, but the problems just started so soon after I had updated the libraries, so I accidently thought the problem were somehow connected to them... Thanks anyway! :) – Kalakuh Apr 17 '15 at 13:05
  • @Kalakuh What was the line? I'm getting the same build error. – Sam Washburn Aug 29 '15 at 02:08

Just for future reference the problem is most likely to be caused by a damage / corrupt .hxproj file in most cases making another project or if you're using version control, rolling back that file will works best.
