NPP_WriteReady - Archive of obsolete content
syntax #include <npapi.h> int32 npp_writeready(npp instance, npstream* stream); parameters the function has the following parameters: instance pointer to the current plug-in instance.
... description the browser calls npp_writeready before each call to npp_write to determine whether a plug-in can receive data and how many bytes it can receive.
...the npp_write function may pass a larger buffer, but the plug-in is required to consume only the amount of data returned by npp_writeready.

Streams - Plugins
the browser calls the plug-in methods npp_newstream, npp_writeready, npp_write, and npp_destroystream to, respectively, create a stream, find out how much data the plug-in can handle, push data into the stream, and delete it.
... the plug-in can set the output parameter type to one of these transmission modes: np_normal: (default): the plug-in can process the data progressively as it arrives from the network or file system through a series of calls to npp_writeready and npp_write.
... finding out how much data the plug-in can accept after a call to npp_newstream and before writing data to the plug-in, the browser calls npp_writeready to determine the maximum number of bytes that the plug-in can consume.

NPP_Write - Archive of obsolete content
if the return value is smaller than the size of the buffer, the browser sends the remaining data to the plug-in through subsequent calls to npp_writeready and npp_write.
...description the browser calls the npp_write function to deliver the data specified in a previous npp_writeready call to the plug-in.
... a plug-in must consume at least as many bytes as indicated in the npp_writeready call.

...if the plug-in requests multiple ranges (either through a list of npbyterange objects in a single call to npn_requestread(), or multiple calls to npn_requestread()), the browser can write individual ranges in any order, and with any number of npp_writeready() and npp_write() calls.
