Kelly, I suggest you look into the sources of SWHX (Screenweaver HX). This embeds and wraps Flash movies by using the Flash Netscape Plugin (i.e. the plugin used by Firefox). It's open source - it is used by the haXe language, but the embedding code is written in C.

Hope that helps, Ian On Sun, Dec 21, 2008 at 11:09 AM, Kelly Snyder <[email protected]> wrote: > > Does anyone know what the underlying technology is behind programs like Zinc? > I need to run an AS 3 Flash file as an interface for a program written in > C++.
