For example If i want to run my game from ZinC a flash app, and be able to control my DGDK from it via ActiveX can I build a hook for that?

Please I know this sounds silly, but its for a prof of concept and we are stuck with Zinc for now.


I see the non GDK had a DLL, but I was hoping GDK had a way.

You mean like from your app tell the to the GDK app to move an object OR to have the GDK window inside of your other app ??

Both, I need the window in my app, and I have to communicate with the GDK, via function calls or variables. I dont need to control abjects directly, I could do that with functions that i call for the most part.

Ive saw some apps with embeded GDK windows , so IT CAN be done.
Aaron Miller is doing a fantastic job with a gui System ,he probably knows how to do it.

He is currently porting the GUI system to GDK.
