Hi,
I'm embedding Gecko and making my app's GUI entirely in XUL. I'm now
stumbled upon this problem: is there a way to display JPEG (bitmap, etc)
images that only exist in memory and are not represented by files on a
file system?
Two first ideas from the top of my head are: 1. to dynamically add
images to window chrome somehow and access them using "chrome://" URL
(is it at all possible?); 2. implement my own "memory" protocol handler
and access images using "memory://" URL (an overkill?).
What format are your images in memory? I don't think that dynamically
adding them to chrome: will work (chrome is mainly a redirectly mechanism).
The idea of a protocol handler sounds more promising, but how would you
represent an in-memory structure as a textual URI?
