Forge Flash Support
===================
SocketPool.swf
--------------
Some special networking features can optionally use a Flash component.
Building the output SWF file requires the [Flex SDK][]. A pre-built component
is included: `swf/SocketPool.swf`.
Building the output SWF requires the `mxmlc` tool from the [Flex SDK][]. If
that tools is already installed then look in the `package.json` file for the
commands to rebuild it. If you need the SDK installed, there is a npm module that installs it:
npm install
To build a regular component:
npm run build
Additional debug support can be built in with the following:
npm run build-debug
Policy Server
-------------
Flash support requires the use of a Policy Server.
### Apache Flash Socket Policy Module
[mod_fsp](./mod_fsp) provides an [Apache][] module that can serve up a Flash
Socket Policy. See `mod_fsp/README` for more details. This module makes it easy
to modify an [Apache][] server to allow cross domain requests to be made to it.
### Simple Python Policy Server
`policyserver.py` provides a very simple test policy server.
### Simple Node.js Policy Server
`policyserver.js` provides a very simple test policy server. If a server is
needed for production environments, please use another option such as perhaps
[nodejs_socket_policy_server][].
