We've built the following workaround - just for the protocol:
Whenever we need to run a windows executable out of our transparent
screenweaver app, we dynamically build a non-transparent window. Then
we run the executable out of the scope of this new window, which works
well so far.
var settings:Object = {...};
this.callback_window = function(success, windowID)
{
if (success)
{
swApplication.call(windowID, "swSystem.shellExecute", ["open",
absolutePath, "", "", 5] );
swApplication.call(windowID, "swWindow.close" );
}
};
swApplication.createWindow( settings, this.callback_window, this);
We are still interested in a solution (even a workaround) for the
Registry problem.
