/**
|
|
* nsIStreamConverter provides an interface to implement when you have code
|
|
* that converts data from one type to another.
|
|
*
|
|
* Suppose you had code that converted plain text into HTML. You could implement
|
|
* this interface to allow everyone else to use your conversion logic using a
|
|
* standard api.
|
|
* <p>
|
|
* <b>STREAM CONVERTER USERS</b>
|
|
*
|
|
* There are currently two ways to use a stream converter:
|
|
* <ol>
|
|
* <li> <b>SYNCHRONOUS</b> Stream to Stream
|
|
* You can supply the service with a stream of type X
|
|
* and it will convert it to your desired output type and return
|
|
* a converted (blocking) stream to you.</li>
|
|
*
|
|
* <li> <b>ASYNCHRONOUS</b> nsIStreamListener to nsIStreamListener
|
|
* You can supply data directly to the converter by calling it's
|
|
* nsIStreamListener::OnDataAvailable() method. It will then
|
|
* convert that data from type X to your desired output type and
|
|
* return converted data to you via the nsIStreamListener you passed
|
|
* in by calling its OnDataAvailable() method.</li>
|
|
* </ol>
|
|
* <p>
|
|
*
|
|
* <b>STREAM CONVERTER SUPPLIERS</b>
|
|
*
|
|
* Registering a stream converter:
|
|
* Stream converter registration is a two step process. First of all the stream
|
|
* converter implementation must register itself with the component manager using
|
|
* a contractid in the format below. Second, the stream converter must add the contractid
|
|
* to the registry.
|
|
*
|
|
* Stream converter contractid format (the stream converter root key is defined in this
|
|
* file):
|
|
*
|
|
* <pre>@mozilla.org/streamconv;1?from=FROM_MIME_TYPE&to=TO_MIME_TYPE</pre>
