It is not included in the main Qt API. <p> The QNPInstance class provides a <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a> that is a Web-browser plugin. <p> <p> Deriving from QNPInstance creates an object that represents a single <tt><EMBED></tt> tag in an HTML document. <p> The QNPInstance is responsible for creating an appropriate window if required (not all plugins have windows), and for interacting with the input/output facilities intrinsic to plugins. <p> Note that there is <em>absolutely no guarantee</em> regarding the order in which functions are called. Sometimes the browser will call <a href="#newWindow">newWindow</a>() first, at other times, <a href="#newStreamCreated">newStreamCreated</a>() will be called first (assuming the <tt><EMBED></tt> tag has a SRC parameter). <p> <em>None of Qt's GUI functionality</em> may be used until after the first call to newWindow(). This includes any use of <a href="qpaintdevice.html">QPaintDevice</a> (ie. <a href="qpixmap.html">QPixmap</a>, <a href="qwidget.html">QWidget</a>, and all subclasses), <a href="qapplication.html">QApplication</a>, anything related to <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> (<a href="qbrush.html">QBrush</a>, etc.), fonts, <a href="qmovie.html">QMovie</a>, <a href="qtooltip.html">QToolTip</a>, etc. Useful classes which specifically <em>can</em> be used are <a href="qimage.html">QImage</a>, <a href="qfile.html">QFile</a>, and <a href="qbuffer.html">QBuffer</a>. <p> By structuring your plugin so that the task of the QNPInstance is to gather data, while the task of the <a href="qnpwidget.html">QNPWidget</a> is to provide a graphical interface to that data, this restriction can easily be accommodated. <hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2> <h3 class=fn><a name="InstanceMode-enum"></a>QNPInstance::InstanceMode</h3> <p> This enum type provides Qt-style names for three #defines in npapi.h: <ul> <li><tt>QNPInstance::Embed</tt> - corresponds to NP_EMBED <li><tt>QNPInstance::Full</tt> - corresponds to NP_FULL <li><tt>QNPInstance::Background</tt> - corresponds to NP_BACKGROUND </ul><p> <h3 class=fn><a name="Reason-enum"></a>QNPInstance::Reason</h3> <ul> <li><tt>QNPInstance::ReasonDone</tt> <li><tt>QNPInstance::ReasonBreak</tt> <li><tt>QNPInstance::ReasonError</tt> <li><tt>QNPInstance::ReasonUnknown</tt> </ul> <h3 class=fn><a name="StreamMode-enum"></a>QNPInstance::StreamMode</h3> <ul> <li><tt>QNPInstance::Normal</tt> <li><tt>QNPInstance::Seek</tt> <li><tt>QNPInstance::AsFile</tt> <li><tt>QNPInstance::AsFileOnly</tt> </ul> <hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2> <h3 class=fn><a name="QNPInstance"></a>QNPInstance::QNPInstance ()<tt> [protected]</tt> </h3> Creates a QNPInstance.

If the argument appears, but has no value assigned, the empty string is returned. In summary: <p> <ul> <li> <tt><EMBED ...></tt> -- <a href="#arg">arg</a>("FOO") == 0 <li> <tt><EMBED FOO ...></tt> -- arg("FOO") == "" <li> <tt><EMBED FOO=BAR ...></tt> -- arg("FOO") == "BAR" </ul> <h3 class=fn>int <a name="argc"></a>QNPInstance::argc () const </h3> Returns the number of arguments to the instance. Note that you should not normally rely on the ordering of arguments, and also note that the SGML specification does not permit multiple arguments with the same name. <p> <p>See also <a href="#arg">arg</a>(). <h3 class=fn>const char * <a name="argn"></a>QNPInstance::argn ( int i ) const </h3> Returns the name of the <em>i</em>-th argument.

See <a href="#argc">argc</a>(). <h3 class=fn>void * <a name="getJavaPeer"></a>QNPInstance::getJavaPeer () const </h3> Returns the Java object associated with the plug-in instance, an object of the <a href="qnplugin.html#getJavaClass">plug-in's Java class</a>, or 0 if the plug-in does not have a Java class, Java is disabled, or an error occurred. <p> The return value is actually a <tt>jref</tt> we use <tt>void*</tt> so as to avoid burdening plugins which do not require Java. <p> <p>See also <a href="qnplugin.html#getJavaClass">QNPlugin::getJavaClass</a>() and <a href="qnplugin.html#getJavaEnv">QNPlugin::getJavaEnv</a>(). <h3 class=fn>void <a name="getURL"></a>QNPInstance::getURL ( const char * url, const char * window = 0 ) </h3> Requests that the <em>url</em> be retrieved and sent to the named <em>window</em>. See Netscape's JavaScript documentation for an explanation of window names. <h3 class=fn>void <a name="getURLNotify"></a>QNPInstance::getURLNotify ( const char * url, const char * window = 0, void * data = 0 ) </h3> Print the instance full-page. By default, this returns FALSE, causing the browser to call the (embedded) <a href="#print">print</a>() function instead. Requests that the given <em>url</em> be retrieved and sent to the named <em>window</em>. See Netscape's JavaScript documentation for an explanation of window names. Passes the arguments including <em>data</em> to NPN_GetURLNotify. <p> <a href="http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/communicator/plugin/refpgur.htm#npngeturlnotify">Netscape: NPN_GetURLNotify method</a> <h3 class=fn><a href="qnpinstance.html#InstanceMode-enum">InstanceMode</a> <a name="mode"></a>QNPInstance::mode () const </h3> Returns the mode of the plugin. <h3 class=fn><a href="qnpstream.html">QNPStream</a> * <a name="newStream"></a>QNPInstance::newStream ( const char * mimetype, const char * window, bool as_file = FALSE ) </h3> <p><b>This function is under development and is subject to change.</b> <p> This function is <em>not tested</em>. <p> Requests the creation of a new data stream <em>from</em> the plug-in. The mime type and window are passed in <em>mimetype</em> and <em>window</em>. <em>as_file</em> holds the AsFileOnly flag. It is an interface to the NPN_NewStream function of the Netscape Plugin API. <h3 class=fn>bool <a name="newStreamCreated"></a>QNPInstance::newStreamCreated ( <a href="qnpstream.html">QNPStream</a> *, <a href="qnpinstance.html#StreamMode-enum">StreamMode</a> & smode )<tt> [virtual]</tt> </h3> <p> This function is called when a new stream has been created. The instance should return TRUE if it accepts the processing of the stream. If the instance requires the stream as a file, it should set <em>smode</em> to AsFileOnly, in which case the data will be delivered some time later to the <a href="#streamAsFile">streamAsFile</a>() function. Otherwise, the data will be delivered in chunks to the <a href="#write">write</a>() function which must consume at least as much data as was returned by the most recent call to <a href="#writeReady">writeReady</a>(). <p> Note that the AsFileOnly method is not supported by Netscape 2.0 and MSIE 3.0. <p> <h3 class=fn><a href="qnpwidget.html">QNPWidget</a> * <a name="newWindow"></a>QNPInstance::newWindow ()<tt> [virtual]</tt> </h3> Called at most once, at some time after the QNPInstance is created. If the plugin requires a window, this function should return a derived class of <a href="qnpwidget.html">QNPWidget</a> that provides the required interface. <p>Example: <a href="grapher-nsplugin-example.html#x2603">grapher/grapher.cpp</a>. <h3 class=fn>void <a name="notifyURL"></a>QNPInstance::notifyURL ( const char * url, <a href="qnpinstance.html#Reason-enum">Reason</a> r, void * notifyData )<tt> [virtual]</tt> </h3> <p><b>This function is under development and is subject to change.</b> <p> This function is <em>not tested</em>. <p> Called whenever a <em>url</em> is notified after call to NPN_GetURLNotify with <em>notifyData</em>. The reason is given in <em>r</em>. <p> It is an encapsulation of the NPP_URLNotify function of the Netscape Plugin API. <p> See also: <a href="http://developer.netscape.com/docs/manuals/communicator/plugin/refpgur.htm#nppurlnotify">Netscape: NPP_URLNotify method</a> <h3 class=fn>void <a name="postURL"></a>QNPInstance::postURL ( const char * url, const char * window, uint len, const char * buf, bool file ) </h3> <p><b>This function is under development and is subject to change.</b> <p> This function is <em>not tested</em>. <p> It is an interface to the NPN_PostURL function of the Netscape Plugin API. <p> Passes <em>url</em>, <em>window</em>, <em>buf</em>, <em>len</em>, and <em>file</em> to NPN_PostURL. <h3 class=fn>void <a name="print"></a>QNPInstance::print ( <a href="qpainter.html">QPainter</a> * )<tt> [virtual]</tt> </h3> <p><b>This function is under development and is subject to change.</b> <p> This function is <em>not tested</em>. <p> Print the instance embedded in a page. <p> It is an encapsulation of the NPP_Print function of the Netscape Plugin API. <h3 class=fn>bool <a name="printFullPage"></a>QNPInstance::printFullPage ()<tt> [virtual]</tt> </h3> <p><b>This function is under development and is subject to change.</b> <p> This function is <em>not tested</em>. It is an encapsulation of the NPP_Print function of the Netscape Plugin API. <h3 class=fn>void <a name="status"></a>QNPInstance::status ( const char * msg ) </h3> Sets the status message in the browser containing this instance to <em>msg</em>. <h3 class=fn>void <a name="streamAsFile"></a>QNPInstance::streamAsFile ( <a href="qnpstream.html">QNPStream</a> *, const char * fname )<tt> [virtual]</tt> </h3> Called when a stream is delivered as a single file called <em>fname</em> rather than as chunks. This may be simpler for a plugin to deal with, but precludes any incremental behavior. <p> Note that the AsFileOnly method is not supported by Netscape 2.0 and MSIE 3.0. <p> <p>See also <a href="#newStreamCreated">newStreamCreated</a>() and <a href="#newStream">newStream</a>(). <h3 class=fn>void <a name="streamDestroyed"></a>QNPInstance::streamDestroyed ( <a href="qnpstream.html">QNPStream</a> * )<tt> [virtual]</tt> </h3> Called when a stream is destroyed. At this point, the stream may be complete() and okay(). If it is not okay(), then an error has occurred. If it is okay(), but not complete(), then the user has cancelled the transmission - do not give an error message in this case. <h3 class=fn>const char * <a name="userAgent"></a>QNPInstance::userAgent () const </h3> Returns the user agent (browser name) containing this instance. <h3 class=fn><a href="qnpwidget.html">QNPWidget</a> * <a name="widget"></a>QNPInstance::widget () </h3> Returns the plugin window created by <a href="#newWindow">newWindow</a>(), if any. <h3 class=fn>int <a name="write"></a>QNPInstance::write ( <a href="qnpstream.html">QNPStream</a> *, int offset, int len, void * buffer )<tt> [virtual]</tt> </h3> <p> Called when incoming data is available for processing by the instance. The instance <em>must</em> consume at least the amount that it returned in the most recent call to <a href="#writeReady">writeReady</a>(), but it may consume up to the amount given by <em>len</em>. <em>buffer</em> is the data available for consumption. The <em>offset</em> argument is merely an informational value indicating the total amount of data that has been consumed in prior calls. <p> This function should return the amount of data actually consumed. <p>Example: <a href="grapher-nsplugin-example.html#x2604">grapher/grapher.cpp</a>. <h3 class=fn>int <a name="writeReady"></a>QNPInstance::writeReady ( <a href="qnpstream.html">QNPStream</a> * )<tt> [virtual]</tt> </h3> Returns the minimum amount of data the instance is willing to receive from the given stream. <p> The default returns a very large value. <!-- eof --> <hr><p> This file is part of the <a href="index.html">Qt toolkit</a>.
