Is it possible to communicate between two running copies of one Flex application through Flash sockets? If true, then how?
E.g.: if we have chat application, one of running chat should connect directly to another one. While both of them use flash.net.Socket class.
In AS3, it is possible only if you use AIR application as a ‘server’:

In case you want to communicate bwetween two remote apps, you should consider P2P:
