Hi,
in my applet I try to read some data out of an text file, that is
stored in the same URL as the applet class on the server.
I use the following construct to read the file
stdFile = new File("file.txt");
try
{
fileIn = new BufferedReader(new FileReader(stdFile));
}
catch (IOException e)
{
System.out.println("...");
}
If I start the applet within jbuilder in the appletviewer, everything
works fine.
But if I start the html-file, that starts the applet in browser I get
an error in the browser:
com.ms.securitiy.SecurityExceptionEx(..) cannot access file file.txt
I think there is a security problem when connecting to the file.
Should I use another read-method, instead of bufferedreader(new
filereader ...)?
Help appreciated
