Using the flex effects in FlashDevelop (flex SDK)

Hi,

I'm looking to buy the Flex component (the $99 one), and I need to ask some questions first, so I'd really appreciate it if someone could answer me?

1. Is the flex component actionscript based, or does it use some specific features in Flex Builder that make it program specific. What I mean is, right now I'm using the Flex SDK, but I'm using FlashDevelop as my IDE, would I still be able to compile the effects, or do I definitely need the Adobe Flex IDE?

2. What does the code component do in the premium version?

Thanks!

1 The Flex component will work only for Flash Builder, but you can use flash develop only for editing and not for compiling. For compiling you need flash sdk
2 The code component is for code use only.
It includes all the classes that are normally imported by the FlashEff2 panel during the setting of an effect.

We use the FlashEff library with FlashDevelop! And we have also integrated the library for the ant build.

There are two FlashEff classes in the .swc file. I think the first one is the pure actionscript main library and the other is a derived Flex Version.
