What problems did you run into incorporating comples SWFs into your
Laszlo apps? I can see problems if your Flash-generated SWFs use _root
or _global references that conflict with the ones in
OpenLaszlo-generated SWFs.
I worked on several medium-sized projects (with OLS 3.1, I believe)
where a significant portion of the functionality was done in Flash and
Laszlo was used successfully to tie it all together.
Need more info. :)

I've been building a big mix of internal apps and customer products

writing most of my apps in OL than I ever was in Flash.
I just came across something I had taken for granted would just work
all along, but never had cause to try (or even read the relevant
documentation) until now. Using OL 4, I figured incorporating any SWF
was as simple as loading it into a <view>... after banging my head for
a few minutes mystified why some SWFs just worked, and others gave a
compile error, I note the caveats in the docs about SWFs with
ActionScript.
So I can accept the way things are... but is this inherent in some way
to the OL design and so may always be an issue, or is it going to be
possible someday to incorporate SWFs with any/all features assuming
you compile to a compatible SWF target?
Too vague?
