ActionScript 3.0 :: Flash Master Policy File In Subdirectory?
Nov 9, 2010
Anyone know if it is possible to keep a MASTER crossdomain policy file in a subdirectory of the domain?url...I know you can do it with a meta policy file, but I want to do it with the MASTER because without a master the meta's are ignored.I've googled this for hours and read through the official spec several times and come up with nothing. With the server I want to do this on its possible to deploy in any subdirectory except the domain root - thats just the constraints I'm under.

Is there a change in the policy file required for Flash Player 10 ? I have it setup so that when my (home-brewed) server receives "<policy-file-request/>" I send back the xml data, which worked perfectly with Flash Player 9, but does not work with 10.Does the policy file itself need to be changed or can I no longer send it the way I am (and instead use that port 843 method) ?

I monitor (and log to server) most user errors in our flash game. Quite frequently I see security errors related to trying to make requests to a cross-domain URL (usually the Facebook Graph API). 99% of our players can make these graph API calls with no issues.What I think is going on is that the client makes a request, but fails to load the crossdomain.xml file. I don't quite know how AS3 handles this in the case of a failure to load the crossdomain policy file...will it retry for every URLRequest made until it succeeds in loading it, or does it just give up forever?

I am trying to combine 2 swf files into a "master swf." One of the swf files is a timeline animation of graphics and text, not much coding. The other is all interactive coding, written on a seperate .as file with a complex Class structure.My first attempts to combine the swf files by simply adding from the Library to the stage at particular frames was a failure and I got all sorts of error codes and broken animations. Would it make any difference to add the swf files dynamically? I guess my question is how to make a master file that conforms with my .as file and will handle the animated section. On a related note, I need code that reads for the last frame of "SWF1" and triggers the "MAIN" timeline to go to the next frame (where the "interactive" swf is waiting to do it's stuff). Oh yeah and at some point, I'll need to prepare a preloader for the whole deal.

I'm using flash sockets to build an embedded chat application. everything works great. I want to allow all the sites who embedded this application to connect to my server, except for some sites.
My problem is that the number of sites that I don't want to connect to my server is a very large one( 4-5k). Currently from what I seen all you can do is tell in your policy file the domains that you allow/not allow.
What I'm looking for is a way for flash player to send me the domain where the flash is embedded and I could return an accept/decline response. I know I can send info about the site where the flash is embedded using actionscript, but this can be very easy simulated.

I can't figure out how to load external swf files(9) into my master.swf file one after the other. This is the Actionscript i have written so far.....(AS2)
var myItems:Array = new Array("swf01.swf", "swf02.swf", "swf03.swf", "swf04.swf", "swf05.swf", "swf06.swf", "swf07.swf", "swf08.swf", "swf09.swf");
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
var myListener:Object = new Object();
myMCL.addListener(myListener);
myMCL.loadClip("myItems[0]", this.getNextHighestDepth());
The first swf loads alright into my master swf but i can't for the life of me work out how to load the rest after each one has finished loading. Don't know if i need a for loop or what?

loading 2 external swfs into one main file using 1 preloader, I have figured out how to get the preloader to handle the correct # of bytes loaded and such but my 1st swf I want to load onto the stage is a video file and I want it as the background but I don't want it to start until after they are both (the video and main file - 2 external swfs) loaded and then I want to start the video and place it on the stage first, then place the main swf on the stage.
I can get the order right if I place them into my load complete function but then my buttons don't work on the main file.
Here is the code:
var bytesLoadedVidBG:Number = new Number();var bytesTotalVidBG:Number = new Number();var loader0:Loader = new Loader(); // load video BGvar loadedSWF0:Object;loader0.load(new

I'm trying to get text to load from my master SWF file (_level0) into an instance on level 5. In the master file all I have is one key frame and this actionscript written into it.
ActionScript Code:
var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader();
myMCL.loadClip("preloader.swf", 5);
_level5.textField1.text = "testText Field";
In the second swf (preloader.swf) all i have is on keyframe and an instance namedtextField1.Is there any reason why I shouldn't be able to load the text "testText Field" into it?

I have 2 applications which I wrote in ActionScript 3.0 as client and C#.net as server. These are basic chat applications. Also I have a test website which is running under the same machine with chat server application.
Server application is listening 289 port, flash application connecting to server with domain and 289 port, it can talk with server during working on Flash. But when I put the flash in a html page, the socket connection is breaking after a while because of security reasons.
I know that is necessary to put a crossdomain.xml file on target website's root folder. The problem is here: Yes, there is a crossdomain.xml file like this:[URL]...

I have a chat server written in Java listening on port 6000 and a client app(using an xmlsocket) in Flash 9. I get these <policy-file-request/>. I understand the purpose and I read the one solution about creating a server on port 843 and serving a master policy file but since I do not have total control over our hosting I cannot use port 843.I also tried replying to the request with "<cross-domain-policy><allow-access-from domain='*' to-ports='*'/></cross-domain-policy>" + "�" but nothing happens.The other really strange thing is that using Firefox the file request waits for the response and does nothing...but in IE7 the file request goes through then it continues to work even with no response, I can send/receive using the socket without problem.Does anyone know a good way to 'satisfy' the file request using the Java server listening on port 6000?

I'm trying to evaluate whether Flex can access binary sockets. Seems that there's a class calles Socket (flex.net package). The requirement is that Flex will connect to a server serving binary data. It will then subscribe to data and receive the feed which it will interpret and display as a chart. I've never worked with Flex, my experience lies with Java, so everything is new to me. So I'm trying to quickly set something simple up. The Java server expects the following:
DataInputStream in = .....
byte cmd = in.readByte();
int size = in.readByte();
byte[] buf = new byte[size];
in.readFully(buf);
[Code] .....
After that - EOFException happens on the server and that's it. So the question is, am I approaching whole streaming data issue wrong when it comes to Flex? Am I sending the policy file wrong? Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a good solid example of how to do it. It seems to me that Flex can do binary Client-Server application, but I personally lack some basic knowledge when doing it. I'm using Flex 3.5 in IntelliJ IDEA IDE.

Now from that flex app i create a socket connection to a C# server and start sending/receiving data.The problem is that after i create the socket connection to C# server the flex app first checks the policy file, and after it get's it, it closes the socket, without keep the connection alive.[code] Now after i create the connection and it gets the policy from server it closes this socket, so to be able to use this connection i have to call again [code]After i do this, i can use normally the connection

Running my Flash app from localhost (in debug) I can connect/contact the socket server just fine. Note: It doesn't seem as though the server detects any 843 connection (e.g. the policy file port) this way. However, when I move the app to the server itself and run it from there (i.e. from the website), it will send the policy file, get a disconnect (as it should), and then try to execute the regular port stuff but doesn't read anything from Flash. It seems like my Flash app isn't writing to the port as it should, or something else is going wrong. I did also notice that Flash seems to be trying to send the policy-file-request twice.My process right now is like this:
1) Flash tries to connect to port 843. The server responds to its <policy-file-request/> with the policy file.
2) Flash reads it, disconnects from 843
3) Server gets graceful disconnect, then gets another connection on 843.
4) Just after that, the server gets a connection on 2188, but reads another <policy-file-request/>, so sends the policy file again.
5) At this point, Flash SHOULD simply write the string "Test" to the socket (that's in my connect handler). However, my server doesn't seem to read anything on the socket after the second <policy-file-request/>.[code]

I am attempting to setup a binary socket connection between flash running on my desktop and a Rabbit RCM3800 Microcontroller providing the server on my home network, which has no file system and has a very basic http server on it. Due to limitations of the microC I cannot run Java/Perl/Python or any other server on it other than setting up a server using its own native Dynamic C language (essentially manually opening and controlling sockets in C). I am able to successfully connect to a socket on port 3333 of the server and transfer information between the server and the .swf file when it is the sandbox type "local-trusted" (while I'm debugging in Flash).
Because of this I'm fairly certain the code to setup the socket between the server and flash works fine. My problem occurs when I try to run the .swf file as "local-with-network" (such as running it after publishing on my desktop) or "remote" (accessing the .swf file when it is located on the server) and it then requires a socket policy server to host a socket policy file on the server. On my server I have code setup such that whenever a socket opens on port 843 or port 3333 (my data port) and sends a stream of raw data containing the request <policy-file-request/>, the server writes back in ASCII the below code and closes the socket.
Code:
Select all<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE cross-domain-policy SYSTEM "[URL]">
<cross-domain-policy>
<site-control permitted-cross-domain-policies="all"/>
<allow-access-from domain="*" to-ports="*" />
</cross-domain-policy>
[Code] .....
So for some reason flash times out while waiting for the socket policy file. I have tested sending the <policy-request-file/> over telnet, and have received the above policy file. I have also sniffed using wireshark and saw that my desktop sent the policy request and received the policy file. I am guessing that Flash times out because it is waiting for some kind of terminating character that states the end of the policy file, and to that end I have tried sending. Interestingly, instead of sending the policy file I have tried sending random data from the server to flash, and flash displayed the Warning: Ignoring policy file at (URL) due to incorrect syntax. Because I don't receive this warning when I send my policy file I don't think it is formatted incorrectly.
I have also tried using the below flash code to hold the socket request open indefinitely, but it also errors after 20seconds.
Code: Select allSecurity.loadPolicyFile("xmlsocket://192.168.1.59:843");
The .swf file will eventually reside on the server itself at 192.168.1.59/myProg.html. I have only tested the flash file remotely on the server a couple times, and in addition to the previous warnings/errors, I received the warning: SWF from (URL) may not connect to a socket in its own domain without a policy file.

I'm trying to get my Flash application to connect via socket to my server, so I need to set up a socket policy file server. It seems like there are various roll-your-own implementations floating around out there, but is there any kind of standard or best practice with what to use?
As an aside, it seems strange that Adobe imposes this restriction but doesn't make something readily available to support it.
