Flash Builder quits unexpectedly on High Sierra

I know this is a known issue with AIR 28 - but due to the fact this is preventing us from upgrading - I'm hoping for an indication as to when this might be addressed?

Simple answer here is - use Indigo and not Juno.

Have you upgraded Java as described here

Running Adobe Flash Builder on Win and Mac with Java 7/8

?

If you updated Java as described above before the update,

then check again if everything is "in place" after the update
and if not re-apply it

Totally missed your suggestion, ty.

Useful link:

Java Archive Downloads - Java SE 8

You can also edit the eclipse.ini and manually add the path to the JDK

-vm

/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_91.jdk/Contents/Home/bin

-startup

....

There was OSX update to 10.13.3 yesterday.

Flash Builder still crashes everytime I try to do an export release.

Also running a MacBook Pro - it's a 7 hr process to upgrade and then restore - so I'm going to hold off until Adobe can confirm this is not happening.

More people are complaining, so it looks like the problem unfortunately still exists: https://forum.starling-framework.org/topic/high-sierra-and-flash-builder-47/page/2

Hi,

Have you tried updating your Mac OS version to 10.13.2. Please try once on 10.13.2 and let us know if this issue persists.

Thanks,

I did update to High Sierra and not just a production build but simply trying to open the iOS or Android build packaging properties window caused FB to crash.  A full restore from timemachine was the only way to roll back the update.

That said, I'm not sure if it was 10.13.2 (released Dec 6th) -- or 10.13.1 that I tried.  Are you saying that you've seen this issue resolved with 10.13.2?

Many Thanks
