Nope.
Flash is proprietary technology from Macromedia, and they only make players for a few platforms along with plugins for IE and Mozilla. The only way to have a legal copy of the Flash Player's source code is to have their SDK, and they give it away only to big companies (to put it in cellphones and so on). And there's royalties to pay if you use Flash in your app.
It's all explained here: http://www.macromedi...sourcecode/faq/
However, there's an open source Flash decoder at:
http://gplflash.sf.net
Those interested in making a port should probably check out that. Currently support is limited (barely any sound, flash <=4 only...) but it seems quite portable. I tested it and it runs some movies quite well though (the Happy Tree Friends for example
).
