hello people,

sorry if this question vague, but I my self am not too sure what I am asking!!
here goes. Can Air create applications that leverage C++ API. for example. I am interested in creating interactive flash interfaces using Flash, then through AIR, I would like to use Autodesk Maya (3D software) through its C++ API?

Why Am I doing this? well, the main reason is that I don't want to have to learn a whole now language, say Python, or Perl to build that interface.

So does that sounds at all possible? if not, do you think that it might be available down the road?

cheers

I'm not 100% sure, but I don't think so.

hummer,
It sounds like I am going to have to look at Python ={
or maybe some products like mProject or Zinc could help me!
I do some more searching.

As I see it only way would be to create some 'proxy application' with will use c++ APIs on one hand and on the other it will communicate with air using socket.
I can't help more, but still it shouldn't be difficult to write sutch application.
