Or a perl script maybe.
Best,

Hi Paul, thanks for the quick response.
The use case would be to call some CPU-intensive audio signal
processing code, most likely written in C++ and packaged as a DLL.
The idea is that a SWF (or AIR app) would try to detect the
presence of the DLL on the user's machine; if the DLL is present,
the SWF (or AIR app) would use the native signal processing
functions implemented in it, otherwise it would rely on a
simplified lower-quality implementation coded in AS3.

Hi folks,
Does anyone know whether there's a way to call native code from a
Flash SWF or AIR app, for example to call functions in a DLL?
Something like Java's JNI but for Flash?
I have never heard of anyone doing that and I know of no direct
mechanism to do so.
What is your use-case?
I realize it's possible to read and write local data files from a
SWF (using FileReference) or from an AIR app (using the File
class), but that's reading and writing data, not running code. I
also know it's possible to run C code compiled using Alchemy -
but that's not really native code, as Alchemy-compiled code isn't
native code, but rather byte-code that runs on the ActionScript VM.
