We have a legacy C# app that uses Flash for display / presentation. SetVariable is being used in the C# app to send variables to Flash (AS1)
ie: axShockwaveFlash.SetVariable(“MyFlashVar”, “theVar”);
We will not be updating the legacy app for some time, but need to create new flash modules for the presentation layer. We’d very much like write them in AS3 for performance and we don’t want to have to rewrite them later when we update the legacy app. Any access the vars being sent through ‘SetVariable’ in AS3?
I’ve tried using Flash’s ExternalInterface and also LoaderInfo. The only thing I can think of doing right now is to use LocalConnection to send the vars from the old AS1 stuff over to the new AS3 modules we’re creating… and that just sounds aweful.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
