3, Download mblock Source Code:
https://github.com/Makeblock-official/mBlock/tree/master/source

4, Unzip AIRSDK and Copy to： C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 (64 Bit)\eclipse\plugins\com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722\AIRSDK

5, Copy DLL files( avoid a flash builder’s bug ) to : C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.7 (64 Bit)\eclipse\plugins\com.adobe.flash.compiler_4.7.0.349722\AIRSDK\bin
download qt-dll.zip (2.1 MB) msvc-dll.zip (547.5 KB) cygwin1.dll.zip (1.0 MB) bluetooth-dll.zip (173.1 KB)
6, Launch Flash builder 4.7
Create New ActionScript Project named “mBlock”

7, Import Source Code：
mblock\source\src instead the src folder of new project

8, Open Project’s Property in Flash Builder IDE：
add Libraries Folder： mblock\source\libs
add ANE： mblock\source\libs*.ane

9, Modify Mblock-app.xml，Use your AIR SDK Version below：
<application xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/air/application/18.0">

is mBlock-app.xml available? usually it is generated at folder “src” when the project is created.

I found the problem, we need to create “New ActionScript Project” named “mBlock” and use “MBlock.as” as default application( right mouse clicked)

I try to compile the mBlock software using three necessary extension files are missing.

First cc.makeblock.BluetoothExt could not be found so I commented that line out of the xml file.
Then cc.makeblock.AIRSerial could not be found so I commented that line out of the xml file.
Next cc.makeblock.AirHID could not be found either so I commented that line out of the xml file.

Then the program compiled, but got errors that the BluetoothExt,
AIRSerial, and AIRHID classes could not be created so the mBlock opened
up as a blank screen.

I found the BluetoothExt, AIRSerial, and AirHID extension files by downloading the latest mBlock 3.3.1 and looking in C:\Program Files (x86)\mBlock\META-INF\AIR\extensions folder.
But I am not sure where to put those files in the MBlock Flash Builder project.

Any help about placing those three extension folders for a proper compile appreciated.
