Hi, Right now i want to know whether or not there is a method to call C++ code (dll, activex, com) in actionscript 3.0 ?

or if there are any methods to capture pictures from camera?

thanks in advance!

Hi there you can get pictures from web cams easily, Read the Flash or Flex

livedocs for that. And there's a project called Alchemy that is in Adobe

Labs that can convert C++ libraries into AS3 files.

Thank you for your quickly response, I don't want to convert them to actionscript 3.0, since i think that will not be stable.

whether or not there are any methods to call functions in a DLL?

Thanks very much!

So far there isn't a way even in AIR to call DLL directly but take a look at the Sales Builder Example in the AIR examples at Adobe.com, there you can see an app that tooks pictures using your web cam.
