Anyone know if you can pass information to Director as part of an exec call
(that is, while starting a projector)? I am trying to find a way to pass
data from Flash to Director and I am not sure how to get Director to
recognize that data being sent to it.
In Flash, you can do is use a command (FS Command) that executes an exe. In
the process you can send data to the file being executed by using the
following:
fscommand ("exec", "mydir.exe" add chr(9) add myinput);
where myinput is the name of the variable and "mydir.exe" is the name of the
director exe. A tab character is inserted between them. This idea is based
upon an example written in C++ where it works just fine...basically it
passes data out of Flash to the C++ code and the C++ code writes a text
file. The Flash call looks like this:
fscommand ("exec", "saver.exe" add chr(9) add variable1 add chr(9) add
variable2);
Thanks
