Great project; "support" for vSphere WebClient 6.0

[ytdlder]

I'd hoped for some plugin like this; unfortunately "Action Script 3" isn't yet supported, which vSphere uses it seems.

This is the only thing why I still need Flash and I'm pretty sure I'll not be able to update the ESX to a newer version very soon...

So, might there be a chance that I could use your plugin to still be able to manage my VMs in the near future? ;-)

Thanks for your consideration!

[ROBERT-MCDOWELL]

you can help to contribute and accelerate the roadmap ;)

[ytdlder]

Would love to; but me not beeing a software developer... might not be the best idea ;-)

@ytdlder, just in case it might be relevant to you.

If your issues are critical, you might consider sponsoring @ruffle-rs.

That being written, I’m only an average computer user, no part of the developer team.

I found this project while trying to find an alternative for exactly this sort of webpage. If it could be added eventually that would certainly be handy. We have a few other monitoring tools at work in the same boat as vSphere client which require ActionScript3.

Well, I did find a solution: use an older Flash version, which doesn't "end"; we're using 32.0.0.371
At least in Opera I can still say to "use Flash" and after logging in (when the Flash parts are loaded) I can click "use old Flash this one time" or the like.
cheers

These kinds of complex applications are the very most difficult to support. Plus Ruffle's focus is more on games than complex applications. I think Ruffle is still not close to being able support something like this.

[ROBERT-MCDOWELL]

but it would be logical to respect the API at the end right?

[n0samu]

Yes of course, the goal is to support everything, but some things will take a very long time

@n0samu
is it because of technical aspects or missing rust libraries?

[n0samu]

I don't have any specific information about this since I don't have access to any vSphere software. I'm judging based on what I have seen in other complex Flex apps. They rely on many AVM2 functions that we have not begun work on yet. It's just the sheer API surface involved.
