Hi,
I'm new to XUL/XPCOM and am searching for some patterns.
I read some doc about extensions development, and more specially
XPCOM/XPConnect related stuff. I now understand the basic use of
components and interfaces, have read some code from some extensions,
been able to run some script via the Extensiondev Javascript shell, and
able to instantiate a connection according to
http://xulplanet.com/tutorials/mozsdk/sockets.php.
Before writing the XUL part, I'd like to pilot Thunderbird using a
JavaScript shell with the IMAP, SMTP and NNTP XPCOM components. But I
have trouble to understand how to write some code, despite
http://lxr.mozilla.org/mozilla/source/mailnews/ and
http://xulplanet.com/references/xpcomref/, and more specially how to
identify the correct interfaces and how to combine and organize them.
Is there a general method which would allow to write some decent code,
eventually a way to monitor XPCOM in real-time ?
Also, is there a more advanced JavaScript shell for Thunderbird ?
Thanks for your help.
