I've been looking at the sample unix and win32 plugins.... I see how the win32 plugin renders using create_render_handler_ogl() - how does the unix plugin do it?
The Mozilla and Konqueror plugins spawn a new gnash process. The gnash process is then instructed, using the -x parameter, to render into the specified X Window. Internally, the Gnash GUI maintains a buffer in which the renderer (in your case AGG) renders the movie. On certain intervals and events, the GUI renders the buffer into the specified window. I don't know if win32 supports such a structure of window embedding, but if so, I would highly recommend using it. This will, in future releases, give users the flexibility of choosing a GUI and/or renderer at runtime.
I've been suggested to use the win32 plugin as a base
I'm not sure that's a good example, but I suppose it's a start. It is probably useful to know that, given some minor adjustments, the Mozilla plugin (which uses NPAPI) should work on win32. Good luck! Bastiaan _______________________________________________ Gnash-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnash-dev
