    <p>I'm currently experimenting with loading external SWF files from both an standard AS3 application, and an AIR application. It seems that the AIR application doesn't act the same way a standard SWF run by the Flash Player does.</p> <p>According to the <a href="http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/9.0_fr/ActionScriptLangRefV3/flash/system/LoaderContext.html#applicationDomain" rel="noreferrer">documentation</a>, the <code>applicationDomain</code> property of <code>LoaderContext</code> is usable in an AIR application too, but it just seems to be not working.</p> <p>I have the following code :</p> <pre><code>package { import flash.display.Loader; import flash.display.LoaderInfo; import flash.display.Sprite; import flash.events.Event; import flash.net.URLRequest; import flash.system.ApplicationDomain; import flash.system.LoaderContext; public class Invoker extends Sprite { private var _ldr : Loader; public function Invoker() { _ldr = new Loader(); _ldr.contentLoaderInfo.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, onChildOneComplete); var ldrC : LoaderContext = new LoaderContext(false, new ApplicationDomain(ApplicationDomain.currentDomain) ); _ldr.load(new URLRequest("otherSwf.swf"), ldrC); } private function onChildOneComplete(e : Event) : void { var c1ad : ApplicationDomain = (e.target as LoaderInfo).applicationDomain; var inad : ApplicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain; trace("Child One parentDomain : " + c1ad.parentDomain); trace("Invoker parentDomain : " + inad.parentDomain); trace("Child One has Invoker : " + c1ad.hasDefinition("Invoker")); trace("Invoker has Invoker : " + inad.hasDefinition("Invoker")); } } } </code></pre> <p>Compiling this code as an SWF file and launching it with the Flash Player does this output, which seems right :</p> <pre><code>Child One parentDomain : [object ApplicationDomain] Invoker parentDomain : null Child One has Invoker : true Invoker has Invoker : true </code></pre> <p>But the same code as an AIR application does a different output :</p> <pre><code>Child One parentDomain : null Invoker parentDomain : null Child One has Invoker : false Invoker has Invoker : true </code></pre> <p>According to the documentation, the first output (using a SWF with Flash Player, and not an AIR application) is the right one. Also, playing around with this snippet and changing the application domain to others possible configurations (like <code>new ApplicationDomain(null)</code>, or <code>ApplicationDomain.currentDomain</code>) does exaclty what the documentation says with the SWF, but does not change the output of the AIR application.</p> <p>Any clue why AIR is simply ignoring the application domain passed to the loader context ? Any documentation about this particular issue ?</p> <p>Thank you very much.</p>
