Two Air apps with the same applicationStorageDirectory

Question

I have an AIR desktop app and I want to made another app that works like an admin panel. It must have the same applicationStorageDirectory to comunicate each other. It is posible? How? Thanks!

Answer 1

Don't believe this is possible.

Alternatively you could create and access a common directory for both your apps in File.documentsDirectory. eg,

var common_file:File = File.documentsDirectory.resolvePath("cibermans_apps/data.xml");

If you want to truly communicate between them live (not just edit common files) and both apps are running, you could use the Local Connection class.
