After writing this code, build the DLL file or shared library, and store it in the appropriate
External Libraries directory (see
a JSFL with the following code, and store it in the Commands directory (see
Macromedia Flash JavaScript API" on page
// JSFL file to run C function defined above
var a = 5;
var b = 10;
var sum = Sample.computeSum(a, b);
fl.trace("The sum of " + a + " and " + b + " is " + sum );
To run the function defined in the DLL, select Commands > Sample in the Flash authoring
environment.

Data types

The JavaScript interpreter defines the following data types:
•
JSContext
•
JSObject
•
jsval
•
JSBool
typedef struct JSContext JSContext
A pointer to this opaque data type passes to the C-level function. Some functions in the API
accept this pointer as one of their arguments.
typedef struct JSObject JSObject
A pointer to this opaque data type passes to the C-level function. This data type represents an
object, which might be an array object or some other object type.
