Window screen capture on Adobe Flex?

Is there a way to take screenshot of the client's window using flex?

I found an example which uses java bridge, but i am looking for different solution.

Do you want to take a snapshot of the users screen? OR just of the AIR App?

If you want to take a screencap of the user's screen, I'd look into NitroScreenCap. The 'generic' approach they use is that they wrote native code for each operating system and pack it up with the AIR app using a NativProcess. I guess you could try to implement that yourself if needed.

If you just need a screencap of the Flex app; do some Googling. You can get the BitMapData of any given Flex Component and turn that into an image. Here are a few links that come up:
