Intellij dosen't show "bin" folder in ActionScript project - actionscript-3

I got an issue with Intellij 11. It doesn't show the "bin" folder (ActionScript 3 project) in my project view on the left.
Under "Project Settings->Modules", "bin" is an "Excluded" folder, but there is no option to change this.
Thanks!

You should be able to click on the Excluded button in the Project Structure - Modules tree explorer.
EDIT:
I see, the problem is perhaps that IntelliJ excludes by default the compiler output folder. Try changing the output folder in the Project Structure - Project - Complier Output text box.
I suspect you won't be able to change this behaviour though.

How to change Active configuration in monodevelop?

I'm following these steps to build sdrsharp on stable Debian. So fr, everything went without a hitch, but I can't figure out this step:
cd into the new sdrsharp directory and then load monodevelop and open the sdrsharp.sln project. If the .sln doesn't open use a text editor to open the .sln file and at the end of the first line change the 12.00 to 11.00. Older versions of monodevelop don't understand the VS2012 header.
Set the Active Configuration from Debug|x86 to Release|x86.
The first one is just given for context, monodevelop has no problem opening the file. But how do I change the Actove Configuration?
Monodevelops internal help is broken, I have no experience with monodevelop or similiar tools as I'm no coder, hence asking here.
Edit to add
The same question was asked and answered here, there should be an option under the "project" tab. But in my case, working from the downloaded .sln, all options under project are grayed out. What to do?
Fixed! The Version had to be changed back to 11 (first bullet point above, relevant to my special case), then reopen file, then it's opened as a project, not as a text file and all the options work.
Take home lessen: That a progeam opens a file without complaining does noit mean there's no error.

After moving my Windows Store App project I can't compile it because .resw not found

I have a Problem with a Windows Store App.
I moved the folder and now I cant compile it, I get the error:
Fehler 2 File C:\[old path]\Strings\en-US\Resources.resw not found. C:\[new path]\MakePRI
I dont know how to fix it because the app is in the same relative path in the project as before.
any hints for a solution?
This item was probably added to the project with absolute path. You can fix that in one of two ways:
In SolutionExplorer remove Resources.resw from the project. Then click on Show All Files icon to make the file appear in its folder although it's not included in the project (I understand you did copy it over when moving the project). Now right click on the file and select Include In Project. After that you can again turn off Show All Files.
In Solution Explorer right click on the project and select Unload Project. Now right click on the project again and select Edit ProjectName.csproj. In the file find Resources.resw and replace the existing tag (and any subtags) with <PRIResource Include="Strings\en-US\Resources.resw" />. Save the changes and close the file. Right click on the project again and select Reload Project.
I got into this problem and I found an easy solution. Open the project and it will show the error. Now right click on the App name in Solution Explorer (on the right hand side) and select Build.This will set the path again and the project can be run now.

FDT - Create a Project with existing source files, assets, folders etc

I am using FDT 5 and would like to create a new project with already existing source files and assets. When I start up the Project Wizard (New->FDT Project) I browse to the folder I want to make as the project but I cannot proceed as FDT gives me the error:
*"PROJECT_NAME overlaps the location of another project: PROJECT_NAME"*
I have downloaded a flash project (developed in FDT) and would just simply like to make it a project in my FDT environment.
I mean this shouldn't be so complicated right? I don't want to create an entirely new project (its own folder) I want to use the same folder I downloaded and view that project. I am using git so I have to work in the same path, sort of speak.
Any ideas?
EDIT:
Apparently this is an issue with FDT, a small bug. I managed to solve the problem following this:
FDT / Eclipse Error : ‘overlaps the location of another project’

Incorrect Paths for an Imported Flex Project

I'm trying to import someone else's Flex project folder into Flash Builder 4.5, and I'm having some problems with the paths. When I load everything up, I'm getting errors that say that the "Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant" for all the .as files living in src. It looks like based on the path settings, it cannot find those files.
So I went to the Package > Properties and tried to add the src folder to the Source Path list, but no luck there either.
One curious thing is that when I look at the error at the bottom, I see Path is set to /ProjectName/src/. Is that an absolute path? Certainly it wouldn't find them if it were.
Can anyone shed some light on getting my Flex project to find my src folder?
Thanks,
Whit
/ProjectName/foo/bar in Flash Builder would be resolved to the project's foo/bar directory, therefore it is not an absolute path.
The project you experience may also have to do with the libraries (SWCs) referenced by your project are not properly referenced. You may go to Project -> Properties -> Flex Build Path -> Library path (tab) and add reference to libraries similar to the fashion you add the Source Path.
Additionally, when source path is correctly added, you would also notice a "virtual folder" appearing in the referencing project, which allows you to directly load and edit the source code of the referenced project.

Adding an external jar library to Intellij IDEA

I'm having a silly problem : I'm trying to add the Jsoup library (which is just an external jar) to my android application developed in Intellij Idea and it seems and don't do it right .
I put the library in the libs folder , then I went in Project Structure -> modules and selected dependencies , select add global library , select attach source and click ok.
When I write code it is able to automatically import classes and to compile , but when running I get " java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org.jsoup.Jsoup"
Copy the .jar file into your lib/ directory.
Right click the new .jar in the lefthand file browser in IntelliJ / Android Studio
Choose "Add as Library..."
Voila!
-Open the External Libraries node on the Left hand panel.
-Select Open Library Settings
-Project structure dialogue opens up.
Select the Libraries.
Click the "+" to browse the file.
![add external jar1
In IntelliJ IDEA 15 you can also access the Project Structure menu item from "File" item in the menu bar. Select Libraries from the list on the left. Click the "+" to browse the file, select it and you're done. It will be added to the "External Libraries" directory in your project.
Have a look at the newer artifacts section. Perhaps you don't add the JAR into your deployment properly.
UPDATE:
I'd like to update my answer based on lessons learned over the past six years since I first answered this question.
The best way to manage 3rd party JAR dependencies in Java projects is to learn Maven (my preference) or Gradle. IntelliJ has terrific integration with both.
If you combine those with an enterprise repository like Nexus you'll have no problems. Your dependencies and versions will be completely specified. Conflicts will be identified for you. Updates will be relatively simple.
