Flex 4.6 is Available AND I’m on TV!

(Adobe TV, that is)

In case you had not seen on the Flex team blog, twitter or through some other medium, Flex SDK 4.6 and Flash Builder 4.6 were released today!  Go get them, if you have not done so already.  Flex 4.6 marks a huge advancement for the Flex SDK, especially regarding mobile applications.

Flash Builder 4.6 is a FREE update for Flash Builder 4.5 users. From the Flex team blog:

A lot is included in this update, so much so that we couldn’t deliver it in the Adobe Application Manager. This means Flash Builder 4.5 users won’t automatically be notified about the update and will have to download the full Flash Builder 4.6 installer and enter their Flash Builder 4.5 serial number.

You can download the open source Flex SDK at: http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/Download+Flex+4.6.

Or, you can download Flash Builder 4.6 from: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=flash_builder.  Flash Builder 4.6 release notes are available at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/921/cpsid_92180.html

Note: you must uninstall Flash Builder 4.5.1 to install Flash Builder 4.6.
