Will a Flash .swf file execute a .exe file on Mac?


I am busy updating a Flash application from a previous developer, but it was written for Windows. I am busy developing on Mac and there is this segment of code:

_global.localSO = SharedObject.getLocal("personalCookie", "/");
_global.localSO.data.name = textFileContent;
_global.localSO.flush();
fscommand("exec", "fscommand/save_personal.exe");

What it basically does is the following:

Now, my real question is the following, can this save_personal.exe execute on a Mac at all (by means of the original Flash app calling it, in this case myApplication.app), or must I publish the Director file as save_personal.app also in order to test the file creation?


Solution

  • .EXE on MAC? NO! only if you use Wine for darwin :)
