Hi,

Anyone used Sockets in Flex to communicate with other software... So you may have had this problem:

I'm have a C++ my colleague is writing that sends me real time data via Socket (ip 127.0.0.1 port 4102). My Flex program is reading it using standard flash.net.Socket.

This works. However, when I copy my Flex files to another place in the computer (rather than the project's bin-debug folder) it stops working. The bin-release export also doesn't work.

I encountered this exact behaviour (moving files from bin-debug to another folder makes it stop working) when contacting other server (URLRequest and WebService). This was solved by putting crossdomain.xml file.
So I thought that's the solution here. But I don't know where and how to put such a file in my local host.

If someone has the answers, please share it.

Thanks,
Tomer.
