First of all: Ming is not an acronym. Ming is an open-source (LGPL)
|
|
library which allows you to create SWF ("Flash") format movies. Ming
|
|
supports almost all of Flash 4's features, including: shapes, gradients,
|
|
bitmaps (pngs and jpegs), morphs ("shape tweens"), text, buttons,
|
|
actions, sprites ("movie clips"), streaming mp3, and color transforms
|
|
--the only thing that's missing is sound events.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Note that all values specifying length, distance, size, etc. are in "twips",
|
|
twenty units per pixel. That's pretty much arbitrary, though, since the player
|
|
scales the movie to whatever pixel size is specified in the embed/object tag,
|
|
or the entire frame if not embedded.

|
Ming offers a number of advantages over the existing
|
|
<link linkend="ref.swf">PHP/libswf module</link>.
|
|
You can use Ming anywhere you can compile the code, whereas libswf is
|
|
closed-source and only available for a few platforms, Windows not one of
|
|
them. Ming provides some insulation from the mundane details of the SWF
|
|
file format, wrapping the movie elements in PHP objects. Also, Ming is
|
|
still being maintained; if there's a feature that you want to see, just
|
|
let us know <ulink url="mailto:&email.ming;">&email.ming;</ulink>.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Ming was added in PHP 4.0.5.

To use Ming with PHP, you first need to build and install the Ming
|
|
library. Source code and installation instructions are available at the
|
|
Ming home page: <ulink url="&url.ming;">&url.ming;</ulink>
|
|
along with examples, a small tutorial, and the latest news.

Download the ming archive. Unpack the archive. Go in the
|
|
Ming directory. make. make install.

|

This will build <filename>libming.so</filename> and install it
|
|
into <filename>/usr/lib/</filename>, and copy
|
|
<filename>ming.h</filename> into <filename>/usr/include/</filename>.
|
|
Edit the <literal>PREFIX=</literal> line in the
|
|
<filename>Makefile</filename> to change the installation directory.
