Seeking qnx.webplatform reference for BB10 extensions

I noticed that a few WebWorks extensions for BB10 in the SDK don't actually seem to have a native component. Rather, they are apparently just JS wrappers to various properties or methods in qnx.webplatform. For example, the app, card, connection and event modules seem to be pure JavaScript. I'd like to know what kind of extensions are possible without resorting to native code. Alas, I can't find any reference to the API exposed in qnx.webplatform. Can anyone point me to such a reference? Thanks.

Re: Seeking qnx.webplatform reference for BB10 extensions

This is part of our webruntime, but is not a reccomended means of development. We cannot guarantee any of the API's will not change and will be supported in the future.

 

If you wish to extend things for a specific reason, then the native API is supported and documented which is why it is preferred.
