Tell flash sandbox to only allow local

Is there a way to allow a Flash app to access local files?

I've build an app that's just for local use and not for web use but i run into sandbox errors because the app consists of several .xml and .swf files.

I understand this can be changed by telling the security settings to trust the app but it should be easy to use so this is not an option.

I also know this can be achieved by porting the app to AIR but i really hope there's a simpler solution.

The app (swf) is embedded in a (local) html page.

If you do not want to use AIR.

You can export swf file to flash projector ( .exe ( win ) .app ( mac os ) ).

how to:

  1. goto: http://goo.gl/5iqnJ
  2. download Projector or Projector content debugger. install it.
  3. open your swf with it
  4. Choose File -> Create Projector.( win ) on mac os something similar.

regards.

This is precisely what AIR is for, and it shouldn't require any porting. Just change the player to Adobe Air in the flash tab under Publish Settings.
