  1. POAdobe AIR: Handling JSON objects from server
    text
    copied!<p>I have a script that retrieves objects from a remote server through an Ajax call. The server returns objects in JSON notation.­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­­</p> <p>However, in Adobe AIR, there is a restriction on using <a href="http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/AIR:HTML_Security_FAQ#Why_restrict_eval.28.29_for_all_Application_content_if_there_are_legitimate_use_cases_for_using_it.3F" rel="nofollow noreferrer">eval()</a> for security reasons. So I'm able to get replies from the remote server, but can't turn them back into JavaScript objects. Is there any workaround for this issue? I would like to use JSON for my JavaScript objects, since it can be used almost immediately.</p> <p>Side-note : I do understand the security implications for forcing the issue, but I will be doing some rapid application development for a competition, so the program would only be a quick prototype, and not used for production purposes. Nevertheless, it would be great if there's a better alternative to what I'm trying to do now</p> <hr> <p><strong>Update:</strong></p> <p>Thanks to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/24919/7750640">Theo</a> and <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/a/21716/7750640">jsight</a> for their answers; </p> <p>One important thing I learnt today is that I can actually make use of ActionScript libraries by using the <pre>&lt;script src="lib/myClasses.swf" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;</pre> tag extended by Adobe AIR.
