Hi, I would like to integrate a flash UI in a c++ program. I use flash.ocx component in vc++ 6, but where can I find doc/references on CShockwaveFlash class (autogenerated) ? My goal is to call from c++ a ActionScript function, and from ActionScript call a c++ function. Thanks :)

I once looked into this and this link was something I found but I never progressed with it since I decided to write my own flash player in the end:

Good luck!

Hi,

I have found this website too ;)

Do you know how to use the function
CShockwaveFlash.CallFunction() ?

Does it call a ActionScript function ?

I don't know too much about your generated class but the player itself does contain an 'external API' which should enable you to do what you are looking for.

You can find more information here:

Resolved :)

#### c++ to flash calls:

TRY{	CString ret = m_FlashPlayer.CallFunction("<invoke name=\"FlashFunction\" returntype=\"xml\"><arguments><string> empty ?</string></arguments></invoke>");	//AfxMessageBox(ret);}CATCH(COleDispatchException, ex){	TCHAR   szCause[255];	CString strFormatted;	ex->GetErrorMessage(szCause, 255);	strFormatted = "The program exited because of this error: ";	strFormatted += szCause;	AfxMessageBox(strFormatted);}END_CATCH

in ActionScript now :

import flash.external.*;ExternalInterface.addCallback("FlashFunction", this, InternalFlashFunction);function InternalFlashFunction(str: String): String {   play();   return "You can return a string...";}

#### flash to c++ calls:

BEGIN_EVENTSINK_MAP(CFlashPlayerDlg, CDialog)    //{{AFX_EVENTSINK_MAP(CFlashPlayerDlg)	ON_EVENT(CFlashPlayerDlg, IDC_SHOCKWAVEFLASH1, 150 /* FSCommand */, OnFSCommand, VTS_BSTR VTS_BSTR)	ON_EVENT(CFlashPlayerDlg, IDC_SHOCKWAVEFLASH1, 197 /* FlashCall */, OnFlashCall, VTS_BSTR)	//}}AFX_EVENTSINK_MAPEND_EVENTSINK_MAP()void CFlashPlayerDlg::OnFSCommand(LPCTSTR command, LPCTSTR args) {	AfxMessageBox(command);}void CFlashPlayerDlg::OnFlashCall(LPCTSTR request) {	AfxMessageBox(request);}

in ActionScript :

fscommand("ChangeText", textInput_txt.text); // for fscommand// orflash.external.ExternalInterface.call("GetContacts"); // flash call
