Each Flex project has its own set of properties, as the following example shows. You can set these properties by first selecting the project in the Navigator view and then Project > Properties from the main menu, or right-click (Control-click on Macintosh) to display the context menu and select Properties.
You can set the following project-specific preferences in Flex Builder:
Info displays general information about the project, settings for text encoding, and the operating system line delimiter. (See Setting project text encoding properties in Help.)
Builders specifies the build tool to use. A standard builder is included in Flex Builder. You can use Apache Ant (an open-source build tool) to create new build scripts or import existing Ant build scripts. (See Customizing builds with Apache Ant.)
Flex Applications displays the names of the project files that are set as application files, which can be compiled, debugged, and run as separate applications. (See Managing project application files.)
Flex Build Path specifies the build path, which specifies where external source and library files are located. You can modify the build path and also change the name of the output folder. (See Setting a project's output folder and Building projects manually.)
Flex Compiler specifies optional compiler preferences such as generating an accessible SWF file, enabling compiler warnings and type checking, specifying additional compiler arguments, and so on. (See Advanced build options.)
Flex Server determines the location of the Flex root folder and the Flex server URL (for Flex Data Services projects only). (See Creating a Flex Data Services project.)
Project References lists the projects that the current project references.
