sanbox securtiy violation

Kishore kumar — Fri, 13 Feb 2009 12:06:43 -0000

Hi,
I wanted to access a xml rpc server running as a standalone:

var rpc:Connection = new ConnectionImpl('127.0.0.1:101');
rpc.onLoad = onPostComplete;
rpc.call('system.listMethods');

But I get the following error:

MethodCallImpl instance created. (v1.0)
getXml()
Render(): Creating the params node.
Render(): Resulting XML document:
Render(): <methodCall><methodName>system.listMethods</methodName><params /></methodCall>
*** Security Sandbox Violation ***
Connection to 127.0.0.1:101 halted - not permitted from file:///C|/Test%5FDOCUMENTS/Flash/Alpha5/Test%5FV1.swf

How to connect without a webserver?
Regards,kishore

typoe of values not encoded if within a struct - fixed

Anonymous — Wed, 10 Jan 2007 13:17:34 -0000

Hi,

THe MethodCallImpl class doesn't encode the type of values if they are within a STRUCT. This was a problem for me, so I've fixed it in my own version (although it could probably check for doubles etc, i only needed ints.

Existing code:
<snip>
// add value node MemberNode.appendChild(this.createElement("value")); MemberNode.lastChild.appendChild(this.createTextNode(parameter.value[i]));
</snip>

my new code:
<snip>
// add value node
MemberNode.appendChild(this.createElement("value"));
// ammended by atom to wrap a type around the node values
var aval = parameter.value[i];
if (typeof(aval) == "number"){
var subTypeNode:XMLNode = this.createElement("int");
} else if (typeof(aval) == "boolean"){
var subTypeNode:XMLNode = this.createElement("bool");
} else {
// must be a string then.
var subTypeNode:XMLNode = this.createElement("string");
}
subTypeNode.appendChild( this.createTextNode( aval ) );
MemberNode.lastChild.appendChild( subTypeNode );
// end ammended by atom
</snip>

Suggested direct method call does not work

Sat, 10 Dec 2005 16:32:49 -0000

Rather than using the deprecated
"Connection.Call(method.name)", the library suggests
using "Connection.method.name()". But this call does
not work.

Infinite Loop Reported by Debugger

Sat, 10 Dec 2005 16:28:49 -0000

Flash Debugger says the following while calling new
XMLRPC.Connection():

256 levels of recursion were exceeded in one action list.
This is probably an infinite loop.
Further execution of actions has been disabled in this
movie.

case sensivity for AS2

Anonymous — Wed, 28 Jan 2004 20:34:04 -0000

on line 582 for AS2 needs to be:
***********************
this.type = Type;
if ((this.type == 'struct') ||
(this.type == 'array')) {
this.value = new Array();
}

not:
***********************
this.type = Type;
if ((this.Type == 'struct') ||
(this.type == 'array')) {
this.value = new Array();
}

Function GetMember(Arg1) doesn't work properly!

Function GetMember(Arg1) doesn't work properly!

If my server-side method returns an array to the
client,then I cann't get what i want through the
GetMember().

I modify the xml-rpc.as file,and the modified file is
attached here.In my modified version,GetMember() does
not return any value of fundamental type,it return an
XMLRPC_object instance,we acquires the value from
this XMLRPC_object instance.

For examples:
if my server-side method returns an array!
then i can get the value as follow
result=myXMLRPC.GetResults();
myValue=result.GetMember(0).GetMember(0).GetValue();
