I haven't been able to make it work. Once, I even tried it on windows with a small vanilla example, and I couldn't get it to work satisfying. It once had a bug/limitation, that you couldn't debug flex code, if there were Java modules in the same IDEA project. Since then, much have happened to the flex support (as I stated in the post) so maybe it is time to try it again. One thing is for sure - you should be running the latest and greatest EAP version, if you are doing flex development. Things are getting fixed all the time. A little side note: I talked to a team who were using the flexbuilder tool for their development, and let's just say that they were not that happy with it either (for debugging). But, that is no excuse for it not working properly in IDEA. Sorry. But do try to express your trouble in the IDEA Jira - they take it seriously and will listen! Until then, happy trace()'ing instead :-( Hi, Dave – hmm, I must admit that I don’t debug the flex code with the debugger. I haven’t been able to make it work.

Its easy to setup a remote debug session with your deployed war to debug the backend Java code but how do you do this for the flex code in the same war? I can set breakpoints, etc but they don't get hit. (I have my flex and java all in the same IDEA project.) How to you debug the flex source?
