Server-side actionscript

[cybergatuno]

Hi,

Is there a way to execute ActionScript3 scripts on HTTP requests (apache module, whole HTTP server, etc ...)?

That would be very usefull to re-use code ...

Thanks.

Howdy and Welcome... :)

I could be wrong but I don't think that's possible... I'll move this to AS3 forum to see if anybody else have any idea...

no. unless you wrote your own mod for that

You could build a CGI application with apollo. Sure, it's only beta, but if it can parse command-line arguments and output to stdout, it can be used to implement CGI.

No special customizations to a server (like additional modules) are necessary as long as you follow CGI conventions.

...you can use Serverside Actionscript with AS2 and Flash Media Server, but that's probably not the route you want...

Apollo apps can handle command-line arguments, but I don't think they can write to stdout.
