Powerflasher FDT – Flash/Flex Development Environment Blog

Hi folks,

we announced it friday at our party, the new FDT version PURE, will be released this week. It will replace the current Basic Version. We will not change the general license policy or any of the other versions. FDT Pure will be available for 99 Euro or 129 US-Dollar.

The Features will basically be the same as FDT Basic, so you get the same great value for simply less money. This is also our offer for developers struggling in the financial downturn right now, but still need professional tools. FDT Pure will not be upgradeable to Professional or Enterprise.

Here is the main feature-list of FDT Pure:

• Advanced Code Completion
• Live Error Highlighting
• Basic MXML Integration and Support
• Quickfixes
• Organizing Imports
• ANT Support
• Launcher
• Creational Wizards
• Advanced AS2 Support
• SWC Browsing
• Formatter
• Live Code Generation
• Semantic Highlighting
• Quick Assist

Leave us a comment and let us know what you think about the new member of the FDT family.

Best,

Simon
