IMPORT Custom JAR files

Avatar

Level 1
I managed to use NetBeans 5-5-1 to build a custom assembler
for doing DataServices, I fully tested it connects to a remote
hsqldb database server.

Took my JAR file put it in <Where? was
confusing/unclear> the libs/folder so Flex Builder locks it
undeletable unless quit so it sees it while compiling (I figure).

I even used the import menu item to import the JAR archive
which extracted class files into the source tree!?

Still no matter what I do I can't seem to IMPORT my class in
to an mxml file as such...

<mx:Script>

<![CDATA[

import mx.data.DataService;

import my.custom.specialAssembler;

I always get an Error...

Definition my.custom.specialAssembler could not be found




I feel this should be possible because I see other references
to flex. mx. etc that work as one would expect.

There doesn't seem to be a way to add JARs as you would
expect (classpath, etc.) and it's extremely non intuitive as a
programmer would expect.

Please explain what is required or the developers should
consider this critical to integration/adaptation with know
standards... I get the feeling I'm only to use ActionScripts or
something it's really odd.
