How to run an external SWF inside a Flex Application?
- by lk
I want to run an Action Script 3.0 Application into a Flex Application. To do this I've done the following:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:WindowedApplication windowComplete="loadSwfApplication()" xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
private function loadSwfApplication()
{
var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest("path/to/the/application.swf");
swfLoader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, loadComplete);
swfLoader.load(urlRequest);
}
private function loadComplete(completeEvent:Event)
{
var swfApplication:* = completeEvent.target.content;
swfApplication.init(); // this is a Function that I made it in the Root class of swfApplication
}
]]>
</mx:Script>
<mx:SWFLoader id="sfwLoader"/>
</mx:WindowedApplication>
The problem is that in the calling of swfApplication.init(); the AIR Player throws me an exception:
Security sandbox violation: caller file:///path/to/the/application.swf cannot access Stage owned by app:/SWFApplicationLoader.swf.
This is because somewhere in application.swf I use the stage like this:
if (root.stage != null)
root.stage.addEventListener(Event.REMOVED, someFunction);
root.stage.stageFocusRect = false;
How can I load this swf application and USE the stage without any problems?
