AIR 14 Beta - Missing builtin type Object

I get "Missing builtin type Object" error message in Flash Builder after updating to AIR 14 Beta from projects that do NOT include AIR libraries.

Tried the usual Clean Projects > re-open projects > re-launch Flash Builder without any luck this time..

Download the "FlashPlayer 14 beta global swc" from Download Adobe Flash Player 14 Beta for Desktops - Adobe Labs.

Then add it to eclipse\plugins\com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722\AIRSDK\frameworks\libs\player\14.0

Thanks, this did the trick!

Leaves me wondering has this been forgotten from the sdk package by Adobe or were we for some reason supposed to do this manually?

I'm seeing this issue as well with Flash Builder 4.7 and AIR 14 Beta on an ActionScript project (non-AIR).

Not looking forward to have to try to switch back to AIR 13.

Edit: I've submitted a bug, if you'd like to vote on it.

I have the same problem. Happens for non-air projects like ActionScript project types.

Tried switching back to AIR 13, but the workspace apparently had gotten corrupted and the same error occurred. I had to revert to the last option, creating a new workspace and re-importing projects etc.

It's quite sad how unstable Flash Builder sometimes is. Is there anybody at Adobe who's looking at these issues..?
