[Swfdec] use sfwdec for my application which aims to extracts embded links in an SWF Flash file
Hi List, I'd like to use sfwdec as a library for my C application which aims to extracts embded links in an SWF Flash file. It's for my crawler. I need to extract them all if possible. Any advices ? Thanks in advance cheers Daniel -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Uh, that is kinda hart, as 90% of links inside Flash files are generated dynamically. And you'll have a hard time figuring out if a link is generated dnamically or not. I'd argue it's equivalent to the halting problem in fact. ;) The best you could probably do is extract all strings from the file and check if they look like links. However, you cannot do that with Swfdec, as we don't export the relevant API yet.
