Publisher review:FreeMovie is a library for generating and parsing Macromedia Flash(tm) SWF files. FreeMovie is a library for generating and parsing Macromedia Flash(tm) SWF files.
It is an alternative to the official Macromedia Flash(tm) (SWF) file format SDK. The author's aim is to build a high-level API for generating SWF files in PHP and other languages, such as Perl, Python, Ruby, Tcl, or VB.Net.
The main features of FreeMovie are TrueType-to-SWF font conversion (unstable), support for multiple bitmap image formats (JPEG-stable, TIFF-unstable, more to come), and a high-level drawing, sound and animation API (in works).
The library is as self-supporting as it is feasible, and does not rely on external PHP modules for around 99 percent of its functionality. The optional external modules it does need are very common on all good UNIX-like operating systems.
Being free from dependencies on external code, FreeMovie can be used without the need to change the current web server configuration as long as the PHP interpreter, either compiled into the server or as a standalone binary, is available on your system.
This makes the developer's and adminstrator's work much easier, because you can literally move FreeMovie and the scripts from one server to another within seconds.
Main features:
- Extremely portable -- written entirely in PHP.
- Easy to install -- just copy the library files and start using them. No need to recompile the PHP interpreter.
- Fast -- optimized for speed. Can be cashed or pre-compiled on the server.
- Free (but friendly to commercial users) -- distributed under the terms of a BSD-style license. Commercial use permitted and encouraged.
- Easy to fix -- full source code provided for free.
- Well documented -- there is a book that describes the inner workings of FreeMovie and the SWF file format.
- Easy to use -- straightforward syntax and plenty of helper functions.
