IDEAs Deep Flex-Mojos Support

If you are writing Flex applications using IntelliJ IDEA, you should also choose the Flexmojos maven plugin for building (if you build with maven, that is) and not the other alternatives. Why? Well, for once, it seems to be the best plugin around for flex building, but also because IDEA has deep support for it.

Currently, with the IDEA8, there is some support for importing POMs that use flexmojos. With the upcoming Maia release, this integration is further enhanced.

In this blogpost, JetBrains explains how to import for POM, and there are some good pointers, that I need to remember for my next POM import. Most notably, enabling the generation of a compiler config file, to have the same settings used by IDEA as flexmojos do at compilation.
