Function calls into an external .swf?

[thivnor]

I'm wondering if I can make function calls from my LZX code into a .swf which was authored in the normal Flash IDE. I would clearly need to load that .swf first.

I have considerable amount of functionality working in .fla / .swf, and would love to tap into it ...

You can execute virtually any actionscript code you want, including calls to attached movieclips, but it is not supported by the Laszlo platform, i.e., you may get unexpected or undefined results.

Hi all.

Could you please some little sample code on how to calll actionscript methods from Laszlo?

We would like very much to have RegExp functions in our Laszlo code, but it is not supported as the docs say.

Thanks.

Hi,

did you ever get this working? We need RegExp support too.

Any help appreciated,

thanks,

David

Hello.

We have found a RegExp implementation article for ActionScript in this link

http://www.jurjans.lv/flash/RegExp.html

At this moment we are translating the code to create a RegExp class suitable for Laszlo. I have been told that few changes must be done in order to accomplish this.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Cool!

Will you be willing to contribute the code after it's done?

cheers,

David

Of course, as soon as it is finished and tested we will post it to the forum.

Fantastic! Thanks. It will be a *great* addition to Laszlo.
