There's a pair for up to SWF4 and another for SWF5 up.
You'll need another pair for SWF9/ABC, then some glue
to expose it on the upper levels.

Would be worth evaluating integration of an existing
flex/bison-based compiler part of SWFTools, GPLv2 licensed.

I think Ming was a good choice. Paired with Gnash is the most
viable solution for an IDE. You're not alone, btw,
check out http://wiki.gnashdev.org/Tools#IDEs, I've added
Cazabe there.

Note that Gnash doesn't support ABC code, so you'll need to improve
that side too for an integrated solution.

Can you point out where to start ??
Some comments would be useful ;-) .
I currently don't have the time but some people I know may be yes; not sure.

I am working in something like a free and open source flash IDE (not a 
Macromedia/Adobe Flash clone) [1] and libming is the best I have found 
for this purpose, not sure about use haXe instead. Although I am already 
using mingpp nowadays I'm trying to find the best option, any idea will 
be welcome.

Maybe it makes sense to use haXe instead
we can use it with ming creating the graphics but it is great for as3

Cordially,

No plans.
Would be great if someone would want to step up and take it on.

[Ming-dev] makefdb problems

[Sandro S. <st...@ke...>]

I've been trying to make SWF to script conversions easier
but got stuck on fonts.

With current master, swfto<whatever> will pretend to find fonts
named "font<FontId>.fdb", and makefdb will create "font<FontId>.fdb"
files.

All (theoretically) good, except that the fdb produced by makefdb
seems to be not properly digested by the fdb parser:

PHP Fatal error:  SWFFont::__construct(): SWFFont_getShape: bad file format (was expecting fill0 = 0) 

This can be easily reproduced by running makefdb over any
of the tests in tests/Font.

Does anyone know more about what the problem could be ?

[Ming-dev] Python's SWFMovie.getRate()

[Sandro S. <st...@ke...>]

Are python hackers still listening ?
I've been trying to figure _why_ SWFMovie.getRate returns None,
but had _no_ success.

Up to _wrap_SWFMovie_getRate the rate is extracted fine:

  resultobj = SWIG_From_float((float)(result));
        printf("WE ARE _STILL_ HERE, and returning %f\n", result);
  return resultobj;

ie: I can see the correct value of 'result'.

But this python code prints None:

 from ming import *
 m =  SWFMovie()
 m.setRate(24.00)
 print m.getRate()

Ideas ?
