Flex AdvancedDataGrid Source Code

If you happen to have a Flex Builder Professional license you also have the source code for the datavisualization components. The source is archived in the DMV-source.jar file. This file is located in the lib directory of your SDK.

For Windows machines this is

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\sdks\3.2.0\lib\DMV-source.jar


To extract the source you run the following command.


java -jar DMV-source.jar [license-file-location] [output-location]


The license file can be found here

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Flex


You can put the source anywhere but Flex Builder Professional is already setup to read the source from

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\sdks\3.2.0

so it is easiest to just extract it from there.

The final command to extract the code would be

java -jar DMV-source.jar C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Adobe\Flex C:\Program Files\Adobe\Flex Builder 3 Plug-in\sdks\3.2.0
