Porting this to ActionScript is not an option. However, it looks like I could create a browser plugin that would wrap the C++ code. I am looking for pointers, caveats or advice on how to proceed. The obvious question is: can a .swf call out to another browser plugin or is this prevented by the security sandbox of all browsers? And the followup: if this is possible, how?
