I have a problem with porting WebExtension from Google Chrome to Firefox for Windows.
What i did (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Add-ons/WebExtensions/Native_messaging):
- modify extension manifest:
1.1) add section application for adding extension id and strict version - modify Native App manifest:
2.1) change section “allowed_origins” on “allowed_extensions” - register Native App manifest in Win Registry (HKU\SOFTWARE\Google\Chrome\NativeMessagingHosts)
When I call chrome.runtime.connectNative(<app_name>) from backgound script, callback onDisconnect receive error “No such native application <app_name>”.
I tried run exemple ping_pong (https://github.com/mdn/webextensions-examples/tree/master/native-messaging), but got same error.
OS: Windows 10 Enterprise
Firefox version: 57.0.1 (64-bit)
Could you help me with solve this problem?
