This interface provides methods to initialize an input stream channel. The input stream channel serves as a data pump for an input stream.

This interface is implemented by the following components:

Properties

nsIInputStream contentStream

Get/set the content stream

This stream contains the data that will be pushed to the channel's stream listener. If the stream is non-blocking and supports the nsIAsyncInputStream interface, then the stream will be read directly. Otherwise, the stream will be read on a background thread.

This attribute must be set before the channel is opened, and it may only be set once.

Methods

void setURI ( nsIURI URI )

void setURI ( nsIURI URI )

Sets the URI for this channel. This must be called before the channel is opened, and it may only be called once.

Arguments:
URI
