It allows +multiple Flash clients to connect to it and to communicate with Pd in both +directions. It can be used to control Pd using one or more Flash frontends +over the internet. + +This object has been inspired by work done by +Eric Skogen (http://www.audionerd.com/) and +Oliver Thuns (http://www.radiostudio.org/streaps/). +It is based on my netserver object which is part of the maxlib library for +Pd (http://www.akustische-kunst.org/puredata/maxlib/). + +flashserver supports the FUDI and the XML protocol. Have a look at the Flash +files to see how data transfer works. Flash version 5.0 or later is required. + +KNOWN BUG: +In case the other end (i.e. the Flash client) drops the connection flashserver +only recognises this when it attempts to send data to that client. It then +kicks the client. Otherwise the client would remain there forever. Thus it is +a good idea to sporadically send data back (even if not needed) just to see if +clients are still alive! + + +flashserver is published under GPL terms.
