How to modify and compile SDK 4 frameworks file in Flash Builder 4

Hi,

I would like to modify \Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4\sdks\4.0.0\frameworks\projects\framework\src\mx\core\ScrollControlBase.as file for testing of my application. How do I get FlashBuilder 4 to compile that file and include it into my build.

Thanks

Jerry

You can actually just take the source for that file and put it in your project in the correct package. So create the mx/core/ folders inside the src folder. and then create a new ScrollControlBase.as file with the contents you wish to run.

This is often called monkey patching because the files in your project folder have higher precedence over the ones in the sdk. Allowing you to override them.
