Amethyst Flash IDE in Visual Studio 1.5 launched

Answer: use Visual Studio!

Amethyst 1.5 is SapphireSteel Software’s Visual Studio IDE for developing Flash and Flex-based applications for the desktop, the web or mobile devices. It includes a drag-and-drop Designer, IntelliSense, refactoring and a multi-process debugger that can debug between .NET and Flash (C# or VB and ActionScript) in a single debugging session.

Note: Huw Collingbourne (editor of Bitwise) is Director of Technology for SapphireSteel Software and, much as he’d like to review Amethyst, he feels he might not be totally impartial....
