Install the Debugger for SWF extension for Visual Studio Code - BowlerHatLLC/vscode-as3mxml GitHub Wiki

Prerequisites

The Debugger for SWF extension for Visual Studio Code has the following requirements:

• Visual Studio Code
• Java JDK 11 (or newer)

💡 Tip: OpenJDK is available to download for free from a variety of vendors, and many experts now recommend avoiding the JDK version from Oracle. If you’re not sure which JDK vendor to choose, a good option is Temurin OpenJDK from Adoptium.net. All OpenJDK versions should be compatible, but Temurin OpenJDK is typically used when testing the vscode-as3mxml and vscode-swf-debug extensions.
