Does anyone have any experience having an iPhone application talk to
a Flash
app over Wifi? I am looking for simple projects that shows a string
going to
and from. I know there is Bonjour, etc. but networking is a big
topic that I
am not well-versed in (yet).
I don't know much about Flash, but I'm assuming that, like most
sandboxed web content, a Flash widget can't open a listening socket.
So it's going to have to be the iPhone that listens and the Flash code
that connects to it. The problem then is how it discovers the iPhone's
IP address. Bonjour would be the usual answer, but I don't think there
are any Flash APIs for it. Without that, you pretty much have to
resort to kludges like reading the IP address off the iPhone's screen
and typing it into a Flash textfield.
{macnetworkprog would be a more appropriate list for this, btw.}
