Problem Summary
Plugins frequently need to make security decisions based on document origins. This is usually done using NPRuntime to access window.location in the DOM. We should provide a secure and convenient way to access an instance's document origin.
Current Proposal
The following NPAPI variable will be added:
NPNVdocumentOrigin = 22
The value for this variable will be the Unicode serialization of the origin converted to NFKC-encoded (normalized) UTF-8. Memory for this string must be freed by the plugin via NPN_MemFree.
char *docOrigin = NULL; NPError error = NPN_GetValue(instance, NPNVdocumentOrigin, &docOrigin); /* ... use URL ... */ NPN_MemFree(docOrigin);
