Hi,
I need plugin support for my application running on chromium for android device. I checked that Npapi supports what I am looking for, can anyone help on how to get the Npapi support on latest chromium build for android. I have complete android build and chromium build setup.


Thanks and Regards,
Nagendra

As far as I know, the NPAP support code no longer exists on the latest Chromium (desktop, it never existed on Android)... I suspect it would be a lot of work to get it back.

If you mean PPAPI, then that is something else (also probably not supported on Android).

I think that neither NPAPI nor PPAPI were ever supported on Android.

Npapi and ppapi are not supported on android currently, but were there in Android till KitKat.

No, they weren't supported on K either. Only the old, non-chromium based WebView on JB and earlier had any plugin support, and that was for a nonstandard Flash-specific variant of NPAPI which could not be used for other plugins.
