[osflash] ExternalInterface

[Edwin van Rijkom]

Working with the External Interface doesn't require any 'special' 
coding: Delphi for example will pick up the AX's new 'FlashCall' event, 
and the'SetReturnValue' and 'CallFunction' methods on importing the OCX.

To do something usefull with it, you'll need toparse the incoming XML 
with the FlashCall event and return a respone using 'SetReturnValue'. 
Haven't looked into CallFunction much yet - but simply invoking it with 
the right params should enable you to invoke a function within Flash 
(that has been registered with addCallback).

I'm using 'FlashCall' and 'SetReturnValue' for some Screenweaver 3 OS 
stuff, so check out the sources for more info.

Cheers,
Edwin
