c# and swf

Hi

You can play a swf file from within a c# application by importing the shockwave libraries etc.  I am wondering if this is possible to do the same in Silverlight.  It would be nice to add in a swf into the silverlight area (not html), so that it will display in the fullscreen mode.  Does any one know if this is possible?

Cheers.

Unfortunately this is not possible. Silverlight implements a subset of the .NET library that does not include COM interop.

 flash residing or at least acting like its living w/ in silverlight.  Not exactly what I think your looking for... but with similar hacks you can make them play nice w/ each other.

Thanks for your help guys, that links has some interesting ideas.

I think I'll have to park that idea of using fullscreen mode and just keep the browser window visible.

Thanks again.
