| 4 | SocketPool.swf
|
| 5 | --------------
|
| 6 |
|
| 7 | Some special networking features can optionally use a Flash component.
|
| 8 | Building the output SWF file requires the [Flex SDK][]. A pre-built component
|
| 9 | is included: `swf/SocketPool.swf`.
|
| 10 |
|
| 11 | Building the output SWF requires the `mxmlc` tool from the [Flex SDK][]. If
|
| 12 | that tools is already installed then look in the `package.json` file for the
|
| 13 | commands to rebuild it. If you need the SDK installed, there is a npm module that installs it:
|
| 14 |
|
| 15 | npm install
|
| 16 |
|
| 17 | To build a regular component:
|
| 18 |
|
| 19 | npm run build
|
| 20 |
|
| 21 | Additional debug support can be built in with the following:
|
| 22 |
|
| 23 | npm run build-debug
|

|
| 25 | Policy Server
|
| 26 | -------------
|
| 27 |
|
| 28 | Flash support requires the use of a Policy Server.

|
| 30 | ### Apache Flash Socket Policy Module
|
| 31 |
|
| 32 | [mod_fsp](./mod_fsp) provides an [Apache][] module that can serve up a Flash
|
| 33 | Socket Policy. See `mod_fsp/README` for more details. This module makes it easy
|
| 34 | to modify an [Apache][] server to allow cross domain requests to be made to it.
|
| 35 |
|
| 36 | ### Simple Python Policy Server
|
| 37 |
|
| 38 | `policyserver.py` provides a very simple test policy server.
|
| 39 |
|
| 40 | ### Simple Node.js Policy Server
|
| 41 |
|
| 42 | `policyserver.js` provides a very simple test policy server. If a server is
|
| 43 | needed for production environments, please use another option such as perhaps
|
| 44 | [nodejs_socket_policy_server][].
