Hey, I’ve been using Flash 8 for a while now, but I was wondering what’s better for coding? Almost my entire project is classes, since I’m into programming Java and C++. I’ve noticed theres no warning or error for calling functions to objects that don’t exist (undefined) and you can leave semicolons off the end of statements, etc. I want something more strict and concentrated on the coding. Which would be better for me, Flash 8, Flex, Eclipse or other?

I can still make a .fla in Flash 8 with my classes even if it’s done in Flex or Eclipse right?
