Hi,
I am starting with OL. I decided to create a simple chat application,
based on XMPP, in order to play a bit with OL. In XMPP peers normally
communicate using sockets, so the chat would leverage the flash runtime
only.
However, everywhere I try to find out how to do flash stuff with OL I
stumble on comments that I should consider using Actionscript and Flex
instead, because the power of OL is the portability...
I really want to play with OL, but apparently I will need to reach some
flash related interfaces. Moreover, there are libraries like XIFF
written in Actionscript.
So several questions:
1. Considering that I need only flash runtime how can I use available
Actionscript libraries inside my LZX scripts?
2. Is it reasonable to choose OL for my described app? Maybe Flex is a
better choice?
3. How much flash API can I reach from OL scripts? How can I export
flash APIs to be available in OL?
Thanks for help.
