Flash Builder 4 Beta / FB3 – “Removing compiler problem markers” error

If you’ve played with the new Flash Builder 4 Beta, you may have wanted to test out your existing projects in it.  And like me, you may have just quickly pointed it to an existing workspace to import a project.  If you haven’t – DON’T.  Once you switch back to Flex Builder 3, you will start getting An internal error occurred during “Removing compiler problem markers…”

This is because FB4 is built on a different version of Eclipse and modifies your workspace files (not your .project files), i.e. it hoses your existing workspace. To get rid of it, just create a new workspace in FB3 and import your projects there.

    I was hopeful this was the answer I was looking for but i removed my .metadata file and created a new workspace and brand new project in the same folder and as soon as i get a compiler error I’m stuck.

    I tried creating a new workspace like you said and I get the same problem.

    fwiw… I can’t import as3 projects like I use to.

    close FB,

    rename the file C:\Documents and Settings\\My Documents\Flex Builder 2\.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.core.resources\.projects\\.markes

    so it wouldn’t find it

    and restart FB.
