Most of the code is not included. A much more simple example (with all the code included) will help developers to better understand the API and use it. 74082 1 acolwell 2012-09-19 19:41:53 +0000 The expectation is that the web application is responsible for determining where the segment boundaries are. This is highly format & deployment dependent. This can be either done in javascript or with the help of backend servers. There is no generic solution that will work in a format agnostic way. The init/media segment abstractions are the best we can do. Lower level than that requires detailed knowledge of the specific format. 76846 2 adrianba 2012-10-21 15:52:07 +0000 We could make the code sample format agnostic by not using a specific media type. However, I don't think this is what you're asking for. I think you're asking for the code for the functions not included but in a format agnostic way. As Aaron says, applications will not be able to ignore the format. Resolving NEEDSINFO. Please provide the example you're asking for and we can review adding it to the spec or into a separate primer document.
