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:
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
if (argc == 1) {
printf("Usage: XPCOMTest <contract_id> [<contract_id]*\n");
return 0;
}
XPCOMTest testObj;
You have never initialized XPCOM! You cannot create XPCOM objects (or call
almost any XPCOM functions, for that matter) until you have called
NS_InitXPCOM2 (or NS_InitXPCOM3).
My platform is Linux, FC3, I am linking against the following
libraries:
-lxpcomglue -lnspr4 -lplds4
Which linking strategy are you trying to use? This looks like a mishmash of
the "standalone" strategy with -lxpcomglue and the "dependent" strategy.

I have set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the "components" directory of my
Mozilla installation.
This should not be necessary. It probably *will* be necessary to launch your
application with the run-mozilla.sh script to set up LD_LIBRARY_PATH to
point to the application directory and possibly set MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME.
