HOW TO: Integrate FlashDevelop with Azoth

1. First, if you don’t know what a hell Azoth is and why would you need it in FD, read this post.
2. Second, download Azoth zip.
3. Find com subfolder inside zip’s as3class folder and extract it to C:\Program Files\FlashDevelop\Library\AS3\classes – now you can import Azoth’s fastmem class in any AS3 project.
4. Make azoth folder in C:\Program Files\FlashDevelop\Tools.
5. Find azoth.exe inside zip’s bin folder and extract it to azoth folder you have made at step 4.
6. In the project that uses Azoth, go to project properties dialog, Build tab, and paste following into Post-Build Command Line field: “$(ToolsDir)\azoth\azoth.exe” “$(OutputDir)\$(OutputName)” “$(OutputDir)\$(OutputName)”

Update: FD response was incredibly fast – there’s now special FD extension available with AS3 project template.
