Hello, Here's my situation. I wrote a 'hello world' extension for firefox using xpcom c++. My javascript and xul files for the extension work great already but when I install the xll and xpt, firefox crashes during start up. from my 'view' it's during xpcom component initalization.
now i created .a files using dlltool and dllwrap from the .lib's that come with the gecko sdk. i'm also using the 'free' msvc compiler from microsoft in conjunction with scons. while i'm not sure if that's an issue i do an an /implib during build time when it tries to link my .a's into the implementation dll. i thought that was a problem but now i'm not so sure. I followed most of the tutorials out there and dumped my dll and my xpt files into the "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\components" directory. ran regxpcom - to be short i followed almost everything on these web sites: http://www.iosart.com/firefox/siteleds/main.html http://www.iosart.com/firefox/xpcom/ any help figuring out why this is happening would be appreciated. i'll try not to cross post but this could be a build issue. i'm coming to the xpcom email list b/c i feel that it's more of a registration problem and not a build problem. but the tutorials are supposedly solid. chris _______________________________________________ Mozilla-xpcom mailing list [email protected] http://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mozilla-xpcom
