client side application of-course however, the application is downloaded from the server so using sun only classes, i understand i need pay no royaltees how about flash ?
i was wandering if anyone has experiance with java/flash or other technologies for similiar tasks, for example sip-client. over java/flash/anything-else-which-is-platform-independant is that roayly free thanks, erez. On 5/4/07, Andre Bar'yudin <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Answers to your questions will depend on your actual needs. Flash has some built-in support for microphone/camera, but only starting at certain version (7? 8?) and obviously it is not as full as a locally running application. Java's support for this kind of things tends to be more limited. Also think - will the target audience have the necessary software installed (right version of Flash/Java) or will they be curious enough to go and install it? Regarding math - once again, all depends on your actual requirements. I am not familiar with Flash's script language, but Java should be sufficient for almost everything you want (a Turing-complete language after all). But Flash can use JavaScript - would that be good enough? Legally - if you use Sun's Java classes only you don't have to pay anyone. But I don't understand your saying about running stuff on your server - we are talking client-side application, right? Regards, Andre.
