Description-en: High-performance SWF player - common data
Lightspark is a free Flash player for Linux which aims for high-performance
by using modern technologies such as JIT compilation and OpenGL shaders.
.
The project is currently in an alpha status and provides the standalone
player and mozilla plugin for testing purposes only.
.
Nice features:
* JIT compilation of ActionScript to native x86 bytecode
* Hardware accelerated rendering using OpenGL shaders (GLSL)
* Aims to support current-generation ActionScript 3
* A new, clean, codebase exploiting multithreading and optimized for modern
hardware. Designed from scratch after the official Flash documentation was
released.
.
This package contains the common library and data.
