Flash/Flex crossdomain issue - using BitmapData.draw() for image from AWS S3 results in SecurityError: Error #2122: Security sandbox violation
I am using BitmapData.draw() on a DisplayObject that includes an image from my AWS S3 bucket. The image loads fine in the swf when I set the S3 image URL as the source for an Image object but when I use BitmapData.draw() on it, it gives me this error: SecurityError: Error #2122: Security sandbox violation: BitmapData.draw: https://www.example.com/Example.swf cannot access https://s3.amazonaws.com/example-images/example.jpg . A policy file is required, but the checkPolicyFile flag was not set when this media was loaded. AS code: var bmpd:BitmapData = new BitmapData(objectToDraw.width
