Overview
0.6.0 and 0.6.1 mark a significant milestone for users who were depending on Inject for older browser support. We have dropped IE6/7 support (easyXDM) and have convered over fully to using window.postMessage for cross domain communication. To continue to use cross domain functionality, we recommend using a standalone install of easyXDM. More details are in the Backwards Compatibility section below.
Backwards Compatibility Concerns
The removal of easyXDM means that to continue using Inject in IE7/8, we recommend a standalone install of easyXDM. This allows the developer to maintain this dependency independent of the Inject code base; a high priority due to the inherinently insecure nature of Flash in the browser. To continue to use easyXDM as a standalone tool, you can implement a Fetch Rule, which will use easyXDM as the transporter via their CORS implementation, as opposed to using the postMessage functionality in modern browser.
A complete example is available on the Inject Cross Domain HowTo doc page.
For most users, this won’t be a concern, but we didn’t want to release this change without a working example for people to draw from.
