Loading Flash / Flex Applications in another AIR Application
- by t.stamm
Hi there,
i'm loading a Flex Application in my AIR App and i'm using the childSandboxBridge and parentSandboxBridge to communicate between those two. Works like a charm.
But i've tried to load a Flash Application (the main Class extends Sprite, not Application) and therefore i get a SecurityError when trying to set the childSandboxBridge on the loaderInfo object.
In the Flex app it's like this:
I'm casting the loaderInfo since the childSandboxBridge Property is only available in AIR.
loaderInfo = FlexGlobals.topLevelApplication.systemManager.loaderInfo;
try {
Object(loaderInfo).childSandboxBridge = this;
} catch(e:Error) {
...
}
In my Flash app it's like this:
loaderInfo = myMainObject.loaderInfo; // myMainObject is the same class as 'root'
try {
Object(loaderInfo).childSandboxBridge = this;
} catch(e:Error) {
...
}
In the below example i get the following SecurityError:
Error #3206: Caller app:/airapp.swf/[[DYNAMIC]]/1 cannot set LoaderInfo property childSandboxBridge.
The SecuritySandbox for both examples is 'application'.
Any ideas why it doesn't work with the Flash app?
Thanks in advance.
