PPAPI的插件，原本是可以使用JS与浏览器交互的，[https://code.google.com/p/ppapi/wiki/InterfacingWithJavaScript](https://code.google.com/p/ppapi/wiki/InterfacingWithJavaScript)，这里还提供了一个JS与plugin交互的文档，但现在说不支持了，现在应该通过PPB_Messaging接口来完成Plugin和浏览器的交互，具体参考[https://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/ppapi/c/ppb_messaging.h?revision=92312&view=markup](https://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/ppapi/c/ppb_messaging.h?revision=92312&view=markup)这里。我实验了一下，通了。 Messaging接口很好，传递的消息可以自已定义，类型也无限制，非常方便。 > foruok原创，如需转载请关注foruok的微信订阅号“程序视界”联系foruok。 # 使用postMessage通信 Messaging接口与其它大多数接口一样，分PPB和PPP两侧。分开来说明一下要做的事情。 ### 插件侧 要做这么些事情： 1. 实现PPP_Messaging接口，关键是void (*HandleMessage)(PP_Instance instance, struct PP_Var message)方法 1. 在Get_Interface中返回名字是PPP_MESSAGING_INTERFACE的接口 1. 在PPP_InitializeModule中获取 PPB_Messaging、PPB_Var、PPB_VarArray、PPB_VarDictionary等接口。 PPB_Messaging的PostMessage用于向浏览器发送消息，发送过去的消息，JS代码可以接收到。 PPB_Var可以用来构造String类型的Var，可以操作Var的引用计数 PPB_VarArray是数组接口，可以创建、访问、设置数组 PPB_VarDictionary是字典（map）接口，可以创建字典Var，可以存取key-value对。 1. PPP_Messaging的HandleMessage处理浏览器的消息，如果需要，调用PPB_Messaging的PostMessage发送消息. 注意，插件侧调用PPB_Var接口的VarFromUtf8时，传入的len不包括’\0’在内。PPAPI的ppb_var.h的注释里的示例代码片段有误，调用时传递的长度是sizeof(hello_world)，应该减去一。 还有一点，插件和浏览器交互的数据，都是数据的拷贝哦，调用接口会发生复制行为。 ### 浏览器侧 浏览器侧可以使用JavaScript来监听插件发送的message事件，也可以使用插件元素的postMessage发送消息给插件。 基本上做下面几件事即可： 1. 实现处理消息的JS函数，其参数是MessageEvent，data成员为插件发过来的信息，可以当做JS对象来访问。 1. 监听插件的message事件 1. 在合适的时候调用插件的postMessage(object)方法发送消息给插件 # 代码 分插件代码和HTML代码。 ### 插件代码 代码是在[**在PPAPI插件中创建本地窗口**](http://blog.csdn.net/foruok/article/details/50513228)一文示例代码的基础上改的，添加了消息处理的部分。只贴相关的部分了。 **获取消息相关接口的代码** 在PPP_InitializeModule中添加了获取PPB_Messaging接口以及其它可能用到的PP_Var类型的接口，有Array和Dictionary。 ~~~ g_var_interface = (const PPB_Var*)get_browser_interface(PPB_VAR_INTERFACE); g_dictionary_interface = (const PPB_VarDictionary*)get_browser_interface(PPB_VAR_DICTIONARY_INTERFACE); g_array_interface = (const PPB_VarArray*)get_browser_interface(PPB_VAR_ARRAY_INTERFACE); g_message_interface = (const PPB_Messaging*)get_browser_interface(PPB_MESSAGING_INTERFACE); ~~~ **PPP_Messaging接口的实现** PPP_Messaging接口的实现代码如下： ~~~ void Plugin_HandleMessage(PP_Instance instance, struct PP_Var message) { char szLog[256] = { 0 }; sprintf_s(szLog, 256, "Plugin_HandleMessage, type = %d\r\n", message.type);

~~~ 有点长，比较潦草。 **返回PPP_Messaging的代码** 完整的PPP_GetInterface函数如下： ~~~ PP_EXPORT const void* PPP_GetInterface(const char* interface_name) { if (strcmp(interface_name, PPP_INSTANCE_INTERFACE) == 0) { OutputDebugString(_T("PPP_GetInterface, instance_interface\r\n"));

return &message_interface; } return NULL; } ~~~ ### 网页代码 网页代码如下： ~~~ <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <!-- Copyright (c) 2016 foruok@微信订阅号“程序视界”(programmer_sight).
