How to use javascript object in asynchronous function


Thanks in advance .

I am creating one function as follows . //requestFile is implemented in NPAPI Plugin , Getting initFS as an NPObject when task is complete i am calling NPN_InvokeDefault on this object.

window.requestFile("test",true,initFS);
//After this function initFS is getting called.
function initFS(fs) {
 alert('Inside initFS'); //alert is coming.
 //testFunc is implemented in NPAPI Plugin, it will return true if it is get called
 alert(fs.testFunc());   // It is not getting called.
 alert(fs.testCall());   //It is not getting called.
 }
function testCall() {
alert('Inside testCall function');
}

I am not getting it which kind of object is returned from Plugin after calling NPN_InvokeDefault. and how to use it in javascript . Specifically i want to return NPObject specially for my plugin , and want to call Plugin methods from javascript.

How to use Asynchronous Javascipt functions with NPAPI Plugins ? any sample will be appreciated.


Solution

  • Use this (fiddle) as a starting point:

        var testcall=function() {
        alert('Inside testCall function');
        }
    
        var fs={
            testFunc: function(){console.log("succes")},
            testCall:testcall
        }
    
    
        //After this function initFS is getting called. 
    
        initFS(fs) //<--PASS in fs also
    
    function initFS(fs) {
         alert('Inside initFS');
         //testFunc is implemented in NPAPI Plugin, it will return true if it is get called
         fs.testFunc();   // It is not getting called.
         fs.testCall();   //It is not getting called.
         }
    

    You need to pass in the fs object into initFS
