flex C exec file

Question

is there any way to execute C language executable file from Flex?

Answer 1

I would imagine this is not possible. Would you like it if some random Flash banner ran deltree /Y C: or rm -rf / for you? However, you can talk with Javascript.

Answer 2

You can use flex to call a php file via HTTPService. The php file will contain something like

<?php
shell_exec('./yourExecutable');
?

Hope this helps..
