I just created a drinking game around the number of times "things in previous posts were put into quotes". Any of you guys know how I can get CF10 + CFB 2.0.1 (FlashBuilder plug-in) + MAMP PRO working on my Mac? Thx.

It completely doesn't work

Unfortunately that has been my experience as well.   I wonder if Adobe will make any effort to put out an update that supports running as a plugin to Eclipse 4.2?

I don’t (wonder, that is, whether “Adobe will make any effort to put out an update that supports running as a plugin to Eclipse 4.2”). Are you under an impression that CFBuilder is dead, David? That Adobe is no longer updating it? What would give you that impression? They just came out with 2.0.1 in May.

Further, for those who maybe hadn’t seen it, Adobe came out just yesterday with a roadmap for CFBuilder (and CF), covering the next 2 releases. http://blogs.coldfusion.com/post.cfm/product-roadmap-for-coldfusion

Certainly we can expect that each upgrade will move to successively higher Eclipse versions. But as a commercial product (also integrating other commercial and open source plugins), they simply can’t just jump whenever there’s a new Eclipse release, even a major one. We can maybe be frustrated if it’s not updated more often, but no, we should not assert they will “make no effort” to support updated Eclipse platforms.
