Eclipse Helios: Is the Flash Builder 4 plugin supported?

Two questions:

1) I recently discovered that a new version of eclipse has been released codenamed: Helios. I am wondering if anyone had any issues with installing the latest Flash Builder plugin?

2) Should I run off the 32 bit version of eclipse or can I use the 64 bit version?

Thx,

David

I just installed Eclipse Helios (32bit) and pointed Eclipse to the Flex 4 Builder Plugin via the "links folder" method, no need to reinstall Flash Builder (see http://www.venukb.com/2006/08/20/install-eclipse-plugins-the-easy-way/). Everything works just fine.

I just tried installing the flash builder 4 plugin on Eclipse Helios and even though the installation completed successfully, I cannot open the Flash perspective or see anything at all that hints to the plugin being installed. Normally, when you first start up the ide (before you register your flash builder) you get a Flex prompt and I do not get that either. My suggestion: Stick with Galileo until someone says otherwise.

I had the same problem when I installed Flash Builder 4 Pro ontop of a fresh installation of Eclipse 3.6 (unable to view MXML or Actionscript files, throws a number of errors). As others have reported it was fixed by closing Eclipse, cleaning out Temp folders (I used CCleaner) and reopening Eclipse. Everything now working as expected.
