Flex IDE – Setting flex editor with proxy

Posted by: Yogesh Puri on: April 14, 2008

Hi

I have recently came across Cairngen while doing a project on Cairngorm based micro-architecture. The tool is excellent for creating the Caringorm based application rapidly (It is a code generator). However the issue i came across is that the tool needs the ANT capabilities to work with and create code. It was needed to update my FLEX IDE for those capabilities.

I followed following steps

Goto HELP -> Software Updates -> Find and Install

But it was not working. Then after some fuzzing around i found that the issue is i am using a proxy server for connecting to Internet and Flex IDE does not pickup the default browser settings. So here is what i have done

Goto WINDOWS -> Preferences -> General -> Network Connections and then Enter your Proxy connection details.

Now after that the problem comes when i tried to access Internal IP address as the Flex IDE is just passing every request from Proxy Server now

So here what you need to do is

Click ADD Host on the same Network Connections Window and input the IP Address you want to bypass from proxy.

After this now i was able to update my Flex IDE and can Install directly from Internet.

Hope this post may help someone facing same issues.
