flex debugging adding ?debug=true to your debug file path

I’ve exhausted my resources trying to figure out how to disable Flex from adding the querystring variable ?debug=true to whatever file path you use when launching your app in debug mode. I have my debug path pointing to an html file with a custom html embed so this flag isn’t being used by it. It is however blocking me from appending my own variables which get encoded and made unusable :/

The only thing I came up with in google is this semi-related reference from: http://livedocs.adobe.com/labs/flex3/html/help.html?content=apache_3.html

“Flex Builder appends ?debug=true to the URL when it launches the browser. This query string parameter triggers a compilation with the debug compiler options enabled.”

Does any of the 0 people that read my blog have an answer or suggestion? I’m assuming a solution could be found regarding the use of “query string parameter overrides” and the flex-config.xml file. The investigation continues…

    Any solutions? I’ve got a similar problem, not in appending my own variables, but an in-house security framework that also uses a URL parameter of “debug”.

    Nope, my only solution was to use SWFAddress and include my variables in the address bar hash #
