How to open a file which includes in Chrome extension by C/C++?

Question

I\'m trying to open a file to parse, say \"config.txt\", in my Chrome extension.

By Javascript it will be fairly easy. For example: chrome.extension.getURL(\'c

I finally managed to find a way to get the "config.txt" in my NPAPI plugin by XmlHttpRequest.

const char* getconfig =
" window.__config_txt__ = (function() {"
"     var ret = \"Default return value\";"
"     var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest();"
"     xhr.open(\"GET\", \"config.txt\", false);"
"     xhr.onreadystatechange = function() {"
"       if(xhr.readyState == 4) {"
"         ret = xhr.responseText;"
"       };"
"     };"
"     xhr.send();"
"     return ret;"
" })();";
m_host->evaluateJavaScript(getconfig);

if (window && window->getJSObject()->HasProperty("window")) {
    std::string content = window->getProperty("__config_txt__");
}
