For a certain project I am required to develop a module which can convert swf files into screensavers. Are there any tutorials/ documentation with which I can start off? What will be the different steps involved? I guess the tricky part is to convert it into a standalone exe.
One caution I can’t use any third party tool for that, since this is an academic project so I need to write my own code. But I guess I will need some library though.

Thanks for your help
