It is really difficult to get documentation on the Flash Plugin, if anybody knows of a good resource, please share it if you can. I even applied for a Flash Player SDK license from Macromedia, but haven't heard anything yet. Looking at the code Delphi generated when importing the Flash ActiveX control I did the following.
{$MACRO ON} {$IFDEF MSWINDOWS} {$DEFINE extdecl := stdcall} {$ELSE} {$DEFINE extdecl := cdecl} {$ENDIF} var flashGetVariable: function (const pVariable: PChar): PChar; extdecl; function TFlashPlayer.GetVariable(const pVariable: String): String; var s: WideString; i: LongInt; function GetFlashProcAddress(Lib: PtrInt; ProcName: PChar): Pointer; begin Result := GetProcAddress(Lib, ProcName); end; begin if NSPluginLibrary.LibraryHandle < 32 then raise Exception.Create('LibraryHandle incorrect!'); flashGetVariable := nil; flashGetVariable := GetFlashProcAddress(NSPluginLibrary.LibraryHandle, 'native_ShockwaveFlash_GetVariable'); if Assigned(flashGetVariable) then begin try s := ''; { just for testing } {$Warning It throws an AV here! Not 100% sure what the message signature is, but got this from the ActiveX generated code from Delphi. } flashGetVariable(PChar(pVariable)); Result := s; { just for testing, it never get here anyways! } except on E: Exception do ShowMessage('Error: ' + E.Message); end; end else Result := 'Failed'; end; If a backtrace will help, I can post that as well... I also changed the flashGetVariable to use WideStrings instead of PChar and no difference. I used PChar, as that is normall what C/C++ programs use in there API definitions.
