Forum Topic - NPAPI: (3 Items)
   
NPAPI  
I am totally new to QNX development and i need to port a NPAPI browser plugin to QNX. 
I need some starting help. Any howtos, examples, anything?
RE: NPAPI  
There is a very simple graphical sample plugin in the source code at:

webkit/trunk/WebCore/plugins/Gf/sample-plugin/

Also see the header "npapi.h", and the WebKit-side plugin code one level
up from the sample-plugin directory. In general the NPAPI is not browser
or OS specific except when it comes to graphics & window management,
i.e. the surface structure passed be WebKit for the plugin to render
into, or the management of the plugin's window if it renders into its
own window.

Another example of an NPAPI plugin is the JNEXT plugin at
http://jnext.org, which has been ported to QNX and is in the repository
under 3rdparty/trunk/jnext-1.0.8.3/. This plugin is non-graphical
therefore is more portable across browsers and OS's.

Regards,
Max

Re: RE: NPAPI  
So i ported basic parts of my plugin to qnx and tried to install it on the system.
because i am still not able to download the webkit source, i tried to make it run in the first step for the "Bob Echo" 
delivered with the system.
Plugin is not detected. So what can i do wrong here?
