Hello, my proxy only allows host names, if i type a IP address I get an proxy security error. This is OK and expected. I developed a Firefox extension that uses a Java Class to resolve the IP address. The extension also changes the IP to host in the address bar or if clicked on a link, I use javascript to do that. This works all fine. But the XPCOM Java class slows the browser start down (10 to 20 seconds), I guess because it loads the java run time at Firefox start. Is there a way to speed java up, or not to load java at start at all. I don't need that feature all the time, may only every month once. So it would be OK if the host name resolve takes some time. Or is there a internal object I overlooked that could resolve an host name from a given IP address. I tried @mozilla.org/network/dns-service;1 nsIDNSService, but this only converts host to IP. Do I need to write a C/c++ object, do I need to implement the whole DNS system? Or is there a C++ class that would do the trick?
