Re: [Concurrency] SecurityError when attempting to access a file from a worker

You want to pass in the optional parameter of "true" to "createWorker". The parameter controls whether the worker should be given application sandbox privileges in AIR.

worker = WorkerDomain.current.createWorker(e.target.data, true);

giveAppPrivileges:Boolean - indicates whether the worker should be given application sandbox privileges in AIR. This parameter is ignored in Flash Player

[Concurrency] SecurityError when attempting to access a file from a worker

forums_noreply@adobe.com — Tue, 14 Aug 2012 23:38:55 GMT

I was working on encrypting some files in a worker using AIR, when I ran into this strange error...

SecurityError #0 - file

at FileWorker/onChannelMessage()[/Users/axon/Projects/Flash/WorkerFile/src/FileWorker.as:32]

at flash.system::MessageChannel/internalAddEventListener()

at flash.system::MessageChannel/addEventListener()

This error triggers when simply placing some code to create a File class instance from a path in my background worker.

Here is an awesome example of my issue: WorkerFile.zip

It's a Flash Builder 4.6 project

What I would like to know, is how do i open a file from a background worker? I didn't spot it on the not allowed list with the release notes, so I am baffled at this point.

Any and all help is appreciated!
