Compc "error: could not find source for resource bundle" in Flex 3 when upgrading from 2.0.1

Question

I have moved our project from SDK 2.0.1 to 3.5 because I'm using TLF. This has compiled OK in flex builder 3 IDE but I am now using command line compilation for our build system and getting errors for all the standard Flex resource bundles: Sharedresources, collections, containers, controls etc. I can see this is because of the improvements in Flex 3 and the SDK local folder doesn't have these as .properties files but now has a framework_rb.swc.

Can anyone tell me how to get the resource bundles to compile using 3.5 SDK?

The application isn't doing anything clever with resource bundles or using the resourcebundle metatag.

Thanks,

Nigel

I guess it means framework resource bundles can't be found on the build system machine. You should create them with the copylocale command.

When adding other locales, you must also include the framework resources for that locale. The en_US locale is already provided. For all other locales, you must create the framework resources. To create a locale’s framework resources, use the copylocale utility in the /sdk/bin directory. For Flash Builder, the copylocale utility is located in flash_builder_install/sdks/4.0.0/bin. You can only execute this utility from the command line.
