Now there is an http admin api that you can use with FMS2 to
administer the
server. I am not sure if there's a method that could be
'abused' to somehow
push a piece of info in...
If you check the admin API docs of FMS then you may be able
to judge if this
is an option - I bet it's not.
<goes away and thinks for a minute>
Hmm maybe there is a way. How about instantiating a certain
app and instance
via the admin (http) api and get your main FMS app to
somehow check for the
existence of that app? This could be used as a boolean
(thinking out loud
here, this may not be feasible for you).
It's clear: an external API interface into FMS is badly
needed - and how
neat would it be if you could use this to (using permission
levels) somehow
push info into FMS.
As I said the Java SDK is meant to be capable of this but
until that's
released only the Flash Player can directly connect to FMS.
