beautiful.
next question: how can i tell the component manager to load the typelib for an
XPCOM object I register dynamically? At runtime I call
nsComponentManger::RegisterFactory(). Will doing a
nsComponentManager::RegisterComponentLib() cause the component managers to look
for typelibs in the same location as the library module? I asked jband about
this, and he said "xpcom only sees .xpt files in the 'components' directory".
But he was talking about mozilla itself; as an embedding application I don't
have rights to put my stuff there.
I last talked to jband about this on 12-21. Since then he's (understandably)
gone awol. This is my short short window to hack so I'll take any pointers
on this one ...
Cheers,
Ari
