2032 Stream Error

[Guest]

I have an app, being wrapped by SWFKit so I have file system access and some other things. It's working fine up until now - I need to load the contents of a text file, and then upload to a web service. I am consistently getting a 2032 error whenever I invoke URLLoader.load on a file. All the files I need to load and then upload are in a relative path to the Flash (.exe):

Flash file:

     \textFiles

If I do URLLoader.load(new URLRequest("textFiles/" + theFile));    I get the stream error. Seems to be a security restriction and I'm not too well versed in Flash security issues... and unfortunately don't have the time to do much research on it. Hoping someone knows the answer...

you are probably correct, that is a cross-domain security issue, even though it looks like you're loading from the same domain.

add a cross-domain policy file (allowing access from localhost) to the root directory of your current directory and load it into your swf.

Thanks kglad - I ended up just using the wrapper app (SWFKit) to read the file contents. I was having some trouble with it so I decided to try URLLoader - but I figured it out and it's working perfect now.

you're welcome.

p.s.  why aren't you creating an air file?

Because AIR can't suppress the print dialog - and frankly I find AIR's file handling to be rather kludgy... it's much cleaner in SWFKit.
