Hi, I am developing an application where I would like to use Flex to talk to some dlls / exe installed on the local machine, through a browser.
The DLLs (and or) EXE will be installed using an installer. The workflow I would like working on the client machine is the swf (created by Flex) getting loaded in the browser and communicating with the dlls installed on the machine. I guess one way would be to use External Interface and do a Action Script <-> Java Script <-> ActiveX (for IE) / np dll (for FF) I would like to avoid installing any new activex control for my application. I do not need any GUI for my application either. Is there another way to directly communicate with the dlls and completely avoid activex (or equivalent in FF) ? Also, material on ExternalInterface to Win32 C++ dlls communication seems really sparse. Can some one point me in the right direction ?
