try to copy flexlib.swc and libravis.swc (take it on ravis web) to Adobe_Flex_Builder_Linux/sdks/3.00/frameworks/lib, then you can compile ravisexplorer.mxml and change it

ups,sory..
you may can copy that to the folder that has file *.lib, search on search engine in vista where is file *.lib must be add (file *.lib has add in there but not for the flexlib.swc and libravis.swc, and it may be on drive C:)
but im not sure.. :-)

if you are using Flex Builder, put these swc files into "libs" directory, or put anywhere as you like and add swc path into project properties.
 
if you are using Flex SDK, use -external-library-path to specify where swc files stay.
 
if you are using Flash, I am not the right person to help.
 
Cheers,
Juguang

I am using Flex Builder 3 I have Copied the libRaVis.swc and
flexlib.swc to libs from the left Panel of the Flex bulder called flex
navigator, I have imported the RaVisExplorer.mxml to the src folder in
the Flex Navigator and made it the default application,when I run the
RaVisExplorer.mxml
The new dialogue window named "Errors in WorkSpace" showing some
Information as follows

Errors exist in required project(s):

Serious

Proceed with launch?

with proceed and Cancel button

When I check out the design tab its showing following error

There is an error at line 1 of your MXML document:
External Entity not found:
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd".

I have to run it anyhow.
Thanx again to all of you for support.

I have importeed the library file I mean the SWC files, I feel the
problem is with adding the library files, just after that I am unable
to run the application it says the same error besides there is some
problem also with the mxml file.

Caps,

I have checked out the source, created a flex library project and used the MXML provided in the examples in a separate project.  I then refer to the library project and everything works fine. 

I am not sure what is causing your issue, but without more specific details of the error no one is going to be able to answer it.  Can you post what errors you are getting?

Can you give me the step by step detail of doing the same so that I
can track my fault, as I am unable to even tell you the exact scenario
as I have no such maturity of clinching the right piece of information
from my steps for you.
What exactly it means when you say "I have created a library
project"---can't I do that on a simple flex project copying the swc
files in libs and importing the mxml file in src of flex builder 3.
It would be best if you give me the detailed steps with url of swc
files and xml files. Thank you I am using Flex bulder 3.

Again, I never dealt with the swc.  The exact steps are go into FLEX Builder, say new FLEX Library Project.  Check the latest source out of SVN and move that into the library project.  Now right click the library project and go to Flex Library Build Path and make sure you are including all of the classes in the library.  After doing this you should be able to include the library project as a Project Reference in any other Flex Projects you create.  Hope this helps.

I have not exactly created the flex library project but created the
flex project and imported the swc files in libs folder, I feel what i
have done is just same as your steps and then i copied the content of
provided mxml file to the default mxml file of the created project,
When i run the applicatin I get

The new dialogue window named "Errors in WorkSpace" showing some
Information as follows

Errors exist in required project(s):

Serious

Proceed with launch?

with proceed and Cancel button

How can I know the exact error occuring I want to know the details of
the occuring error so that I may exactly point out you what error I am
getting, Please this time look at my query.

I have done all these what i wrote... where is my fault?

On the top toolbar there is a Window menu option.  Click that then select "Problems".  All issues with the current project are listed there.

I am getting the same error even after fresh downloading and
overwriting the flexliv.swc, I would like to recap again that I have
imported flexlib.swc and libRavis.swc in the libs folder on the code
explrer on the flex navigator.

If you have imported both of these already you should be fine...but why not just do a project clean?  Select Project -> Clean and select the project you want to clean.  This should be all that is required.

save your project directory and put it somewhere in the net.
Maybe if we try to import it it will be more clear what is the problem.

regards,
Rafal
