Anything interesting we can do with this hack on iOS? Do iOS extensions allow any background processing?
----- Original message ----- From: Richard Newman <[email protected]> To: "mobile-firefox-dev" <[email protected]> Subject: MMWormhole (iOS) Date: Sun, 18 Jan 2015 10:33:35 -0800 https://github.com/mutualmobile/MMWormhole Looks like this might be an easy way to implement data storage from extensions. --- MMWormhole creates a bridge between an iOS extension and its containing application. The wormhole is meant to be used to pass data or commands back and forth between the two locations. Messages are archived to files which are written to the application's shared App Group. The effect closely resembles interprocess communication between the app and the extension, though true interprocess communication does not exist between extensions and containing apps. The wormhole also supports CFNotificationCenter Darwin Notifications in an effort to support realtime change notifications. When a message is passed to the wormhole, interested parties can listen and be notified of these changes on either side of the wormhole. The effect is nearly instant updates on either side when a message is sent through the wormhole. _______________________________________________ mobile-firefox-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mobile-firefox-dev -- Nathan of Guardian [email protected] _______________________________________________ Guardian-dev mailing list Post: [email protected] List info: https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/listinfo/guardian-dev To Unsubscribe Send email to: [email protected] Or visit: https://lists.mayfirst.org/mailman/options/guardian-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com You are subscribed as: [email protected]
