Problem Summary
Plugins frequently need to make security decisions based on document URLs. 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 URL.
Current Proposal
The following NPAPI variable will be added:
NPNVdocumentURL = TBA
The value for this variable will be an NFKC-encoded (normalized) UTF-8 URL. Memory for this string must be freed by the plugin via NPN_MemFree
.
char *docURL = NULL; NPError error = NPN_GetValue(instance, NPNVdocumentURL, &docURL); /* ... use URL ... */ NPN_MemFree(docURL);
