Moreover, since new Firefox platforms do not have to support an existing ecosystem of users and plugins, new platforms such as 64-bit Firefox for Windows will launch without plugin support.īecause Adobe Flash is still a common part of the Web experience for most users, we will continue to support Flash within Firefox as an exception to the general plugin policy. This decision mirrors actions by other modern browsers, such as Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, which have already removed support for legacy plugins.

Firefox began this process several years ago with manual plugin activation, allowing users to activate plugins only when they were necessary.

Mozilla intends to remove support for most NPAPI plugins in Firefox by the end of 2016. Plugins are a source of performance problems, crashes, and security incidents for Web users. As browsers and the Web have grown, NPAPI has shown its age. Features such as clipboard access which used to require plugins are now available via native Web APIs. Mozilla continues to prioritize features that will make it possible for sites to switch away from plugins. Streaming video, advanced graphics, and gaming features have all become native Web APIs in the past few years. We may be able to come to an agreement for a revenue share, and reduce the number of similar extensions.Mozilla has been steadily improving the Web platform to support features that were once only available via NPAPI plugins. If you have an idea for, or an implementation of, enhancements, I encourage you see whether they can be incorporated into my extension rather than publishing your own fork.

The advantage of this licence is that it both retains the enhanced debugging, customisation, risk-mitigation, and community development of Free/Open Source software (its most important features IMHO), while making it practical for developers to earn a living directly from their software (or their documentation writing, or their marketing nous). You can release your own modified or unmodified version, and charge what you like, as long as you keep the same licence, which means complying with point 2 and forwarding AUD $20 to me for each production installation.

#DO I NEED JAVA PLUGIN FOR FIREFOX UPDATE#

The cost of an update is the difference between the costs of the versions you are upgrading between.

However you must pay me AUD $20 for each browser on which this is installed and otherwise run.

You can use this package without payment for evaluation, internal testing, and development work on your application or fork.

Read the licence for the precise conditions, but a simple summary would be: This extension and its associated Java library are licensed under Version 1 of the DevWheels Licence. But, besides the obvious advantage for UIs already written as Applets, the remote procedure call and remote DOM manipulation paradigm of JSJBridge/LiveConnect, and the automatic start-stop synchronisation of the front and back ends, can continue to make this an easy, efficient, fast, and powerful solution. This does have the advantage of weak coupling, allowing the backend and frontend to be separately developed, and simultaneously accessed from multiple browsers. The alternative to using this extension to turn a browser into a Java user interface would be to write the Java Program as a backend API, and have the browser frontend interact with this via Ajax/XMLHttpRequest calls, perhaps under a framework such as React. Display of Applet graphics may be supported in the future. This Firefox extension and Java library allows Applets which display no graphics but only interact with JavaScript and the DOM to continue to be used on current browser and Java versions with minor changes on both the Java and JavaScript sides. Continued use of them requires use of an older browser version, and soon an older Java version. However both the Java Plugin and Applets are now being deprecated as security and browser-stability risks. This was in addition to the ability of Applets to display their graphics in a rectangle on their webpages. The Java browser Plugin provided an easy way for Java programs, configured as Applets, to manipulate webpages, and for the webpages to both get and set Java fields and call Java methods via the LiveConnect API. A web browser is a good user interface for a native application.
