accessing global methods with swf loaded across domains

Hi Mariano,

the short answer: You can't access global methods defined in
other domains.
The Flashplayer creates new _global objects for each
SecurityDomain,
which can't be accessed by code from other domains.
What you could do is create some sort of exchange object on
_level0
or, better yet, change the data exchange to some interface
based
system.

Note that, in order to be able to access objects from other
SecurityDomains in a strongly typed way, you have to import
the
classes from a shared library instead of defining them in
the loaded
modules themselves. And even then, you might have the weird
situation
that something like
myNumberFromAnotherSecurityDomain instanceof Number
evaluates to
"false" because, really, 'Number' is a type
defined in the
SecurityDomain and so it differs from one SecurityDomain to
another.


good luck,
till
