Can't disable flash policy server

[dasony]

Even when I set 'flash policy server' option to false, it still runs the policy server on 10843 port.

io.configure(function() {
   io.set('flash policy server', false);
   io.disable('flash policy server');
   io.set('transports', [ 'websocket' , 'flashsocket' , 'htmlfile' , 'xhr-polling', 'jsonp-polling']);
});

I grep'ed the whole socket.io library, but I couldn't find any routine for checking 'flash policy server' option. I suspect it has been removed by mistake during upgrades.

Yes, it seems to be missing ;o marked as bug

Any progress on this?

+1, still no lines in the code using 'flash policy server' option.
Also seems there' s no way to run policy server on the same port as Socket.IO server. For doing this, I have to up simple HTTP server which sends contents of 'crossdomain.xml' by request:

// basic HTTP server                                                           
function httpHandler(req, res) {                                               
    if(req.url == '/crossdomain.xml') {                                        
        fs.readFile(__dirname + req.url, function(err, data) {                 
            res.writeHead(200, {"Content-Type": "text/x-cross-domain-policy"});
            res.end(data);                                                     
        });                                                                    
    }                                                                          
}

Do you have any suggestions how to up Socket.IO and FlashPolicy servers on the same port?

if you just disable flashsockets in your transport list, it should start it.
