Access Flex Application ActiveX / ExternalInterface in seperate process from C#?

I need to fetch a flex application from a process in C#.

How can i get access to the externalInterfaceAPI when the flex application is running as a Application?

EDIT: After further reading it looks like it is possible, as from what i understood, a flex stand alone application is a ActiveX "container", so what i need is to get access to the ActiveX container, and from there the externalInterface API.

I hope i explained my problem for you to understand. Thanks in advance.

EDIT. Anyone know if it is even possible? (without doing something crazy)

Your best bet is to search for '.NET Flash Projector' or 'C# flash projector'. I know this is possible, and a quick googling has a few examples if you feel like reading through them.

Good luck.

I think you misred something, im not looking to integrate the flash / flex in my application, i want to communicate with an existing flex application.

Reading through your description, it sounds like you're trying to run a flex app as an exe on top of a C# app. If the flex app and the c# exe are completely independent, that's a different manimal.There are ways to do this as well. Funny that Darron Schall was doing flash in '05: http://www.darronschall.com/weblog/2005/03/exploring-localconnection-for-c-and-flash.cfm[I didn't read through the example, he probably grabs the serialized localConnection data from the locale that flashPlayer copies localConnection send() calls to disk.] This, of course, is one of many solutions.
