I am venturing into the unknown - hoping to broaden my horizons (and through necessity!)
I currently have a utility that runs a number of internet security applications (which is currently done through command line switches) with a flash front end. Norton, Adaware, CCleaner & MSConfig (licenses were acquired where necessary - It's a home service my company sells)
So basically the flash file is run, and the flash shell has buttons that run the various applications in the background. It uses batch files to call up the applications.
Now I didn't create any of this - the guy that did is leaving the company, and I'm charged with continuing his work (yeh, lucky me!!).
Is it possible to:
a) automate the whole process - so you click one button and it runs all of the applications in turn
and/or
b) combine the whole thing into flash so it's one single package - currently it uses the flash FSCommand so all of the applications and batch files can be read by end users.
Now, I'm not looking for someone to write me up a script, guide or any such thing - all I need is advice on what I should use to complete this process.
Do I need to learn C++, Java or what?!!
I have a basic working knowledge with Flash and some minor ActionScript knowledge - but that's it in terms of scripting and programming.
