I am attempting to instantiate an XPCOM component in simple C++
application. The goal is to write unit tests for my XPCOM component.
The XPCOM instantiation always fails. Here is my instantiation code:
bool XPCOMTest::createXPCOMObject(const char* contractId, nsISupports**
ppXPCOM) {
nsresult rv;
nsCOMPtr<nsISupports> pXPCOM = do_CreateInstance(contractId, &rv);
if (rv != NS_OK) {
printf("The return code from do_CreateInstance is %d\n", rv);
}
*ppXPCOM = pXPCOM.get();
NS_IF_ADDREF(*ppXPCOM);
return true;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
if (argc == 1) {
printf("Usage: XPCOMTest <contract_id> [<contract_id]*\n");
return 0;
}
XPCOMTest testObj;
for (int i = 1; i < argc; i++) {
nsCOMPtr<nsISupports> pXPCOM = NULL;
printf("Attempting create object: %s\n", argv[i]);
testObj.createXPCOMObject(argv[i], getter_AddRefs(pXPCOM));
if (pXPCOM != NULL) {
printf("Succeeded in creating component: %s\n",
argv[i]);
} else {
printf("Failed to create component: %s\n", argv[i]);
}
}
return 1;
}
My platform is Linux, FC3, I am linking against the following
libraries:
-lxpcomglue -lnspr4 -lplds4
I have set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the "components" directory of my
Mozilla installation.
Thanks for any help.
