RE: [flexcoders] AIR as GUI on Linux

2008-12-09 Thread James Ward
I've been exploring using File IO in AIR to connect to DBUS on Linux as a way 
to communicate between AIR apps and other applications.  Nothing to show yet 
but it certainly seems possible.  There is already a JavaScript DBUS API that 
could be partially ported.

Would that work?

Subject: [flexcoders] AIR as GUI on Linux


I'm starting with Flex/AIR and I wanna build some apps as GUI for some
shell programs like: portage from Gentoo and a DHCP server, may big
doubt here is this: what's the best way to communicate which such
programs from an AIR application or what can I use as middleware
between both.

I really hope that someone with more experience can point me in the
right direction on this one. Thanx a lot for your help.

You'd need a Java wrapper, probably.
