Setting up a Project:<\/strong><\/p>\nCreate a standard Flex project as you would normally do in FB. Lets not worry about the main application file for now, first we need to change some settings for our project.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Right Click the Project and then select its properties. Go to Flex Compiler option and Select use a specific SDK.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Choose Flex 4. Also I select the wrapper to have required player version to 10.0.0 even though i will be running swf directly. For my browsers the FP version is still 9.0.115.<\/p>\n

I use the following sample code, it is taken from Adobe site,<\/p>\n

Note: This is all you have to do if you already have FP 10 installed.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
Since i don’t have FP 10, I just have to do a minor modification. FP 10 also comes bundled with your Flex SDK, if you look into flex_sdk_4\/runtimes\/player\/mac, there should be a zip file. I have associated all the swf files with this app. So whenever i click on swf, it opens up with this version of Flash Player.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
We can do that change in our project by selecting the Run\/Debug Settings for the project and then clicking the edit button.<\/p>\n

if everything goes well the next time when you run this project, it will run in FP 10 application and you are all set for writing Flex 4 applications.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Flex 4 SDK is available for download now, even though it will be a lot buggy i suppose, nevertheless i decided to play with it and try it out. Flex 4 applications work with Flash Player 10 only and I didn’t want to install it since it can’t co-exist with other FP versions.
