✨ QNPStream ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the QNPStream manual page — that's the 3qt one, Qt 3 era, Trolltech royalty 👑. Sit down, hydrate, and let's get into it 💖

🎀 NAME 🎀

QNPStream — a stream of data that the browser hands over to a QNPInstance, no cap.

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

This class is part of the Qt Netscape Extension, periodt.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So this class is defined in the Qt Netscape Extension, which lives in the qt/extensions directory. She is not included in the main Qt API — she's off in her own little corner, main character energy but technically separate, iykyk.

The QNPStream class provides a stream of data provided to a QNPInstance by the browser. That's literally the whole vibe.

⚠️ Note that this is neither a QTextStream nor a QDataStream. Do not get it twisted, bestie. Different girl entirely. 💀

See also QNPInstance::write() and QNPInstance::newStreamCreated() — go say hi to them too 🫶

🧚 MEMBER FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION 🧚

⭐ QNPStream::QNPStream ( QNPInstance * in, const char * mt, _NPStream * st, bool se )

Creates a stream. 🎀

🙈 Plugins should not call this. If you need a stream, call QNPInstance::newStream() instead. Stay in your lane, queen.

Takes a QNPInstance in, a MIME type mt, a pointer to an _NPStream st, and a seekable flag se. Four little arguments, one iconic constructor ✨

💜 QNPStream::~QNPStream ()

Destroys the stream. RIP to a real one 🪦💐

🌈 bool QNPStream::complete () const

Returns TRUE if the stream has received all the data from the source; otherwise returns FALSE. She's either done-done or she's not, there is no in between 💅

🍓 uint QNPStream::end () const

Returns the length of the stream in bytes. Heads up though — this function might return 0 for streams of unknown length. Mystery length stream, she's keeping secrets 🙈

👑 QNPInstance * QNPStream::instance ()

Returns the QNPInstance for which this stream was created. Finding her origin story fr fr.

🦋 uint QNPStream::lastModified () const

Returns the time when the source of the stream was last modified. Time stamp behaviour, very "when was this last touched" energy ⏰

💖 bool QNPStream::okay () const

Returns TRUE if no errors have occurred on the stream; otherwise returns FALSE. The vibe check of the entire class, honestly. 🫶

✨ void QNPStream::requestRead ( int offset, uint length )

Requests the section of the stream, of length bytes from offset, be sent to the QNPInstance::write() function of the instance() of this stream. Basically: "hey, send me this slice, right here" 📬

🎀 bool QNPStream::seekable () const

Returns TRUE if the stream is seekable; otherwise returns FALSE. Can we skip around or not, that's the question 🧐

🌟 const char * QNPStream::type () const

Returns the MIME type of the stream. What kind of data is she, bestie 💅

💜 const char * QNPStream::url () const

Returns the URL from which the stream was created. Her birthplace, lowkey 🔗

🧚 int QNPStream::write ( int len, void * buffer )

Writes len bytes from buffer to the stream. Just putting the bytes where they belong, slay ✍️✨
