Hello,

I want to test air applications and air libraries using flexmojos 3.9-SNAPSHOT. However, although flexmojos does indeed has support for air, it tries to run the swf generated by the build using flash player, and as I need to use air native libraries I wanted to run the tests using adl (AIR debug launcher).

To do this, I cloned flexmojos in github.com to this repository (http://github.com/mi007/flexmojos). I then created a class that created an -app.xml for the TestRunner.swf file that was generated and ran: adl TestRunner-app.xml

However, before the Test ends, it should call the server in the port 13540 to report something. When that happens, I'm getting the following error:

Error #2044: Unhandled securityError:. text=Error #2048: Security sandbox violation: app:/TestRunner.swf cannot load data from 127.0.0.1:13540.

I know that it is calling the server before in port 13539 successfully, because it prints the test results on the console. I also know that it is opening port 13540 because I was able to telnet to it. However, for some reason it is unable to connect from the air application.

Given the circunstances, I have the following questions:

1) Is there any good documentation that I can read to understand how this security framework works? The only documentation that I found was terribly confusing.

2) Does anyone has any ideas or hints about what might be happening?

3) I have read somewhere that flexmojos hacks the security framework so that flex applications can open a socket to localhost without problems during tests. Is there any documentation about how this is done?

Thanks,
