1493292 - Remove aDataLen parameters from nsITransferable

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Widget, enhancement)

Description

[Tom S [:evilpie]]

As far as I can tell the dataLen is actually not needed for anything.

Comment 1

[Edgar Chen [:edgar]]

It looks like this bug should be under Widget component to me. Feel free to switch back if I am wrong.

Comment 2

[Tom S [:evilpie]]

I thought I could start with just removing the aDataLen parameter GetTransferData, but there are very few cases where we pass that into SetTransferData again.

Comment 3

[Tom S [:evilpie]]

There is also the special meaning of length = 0.

Looking pretty good on Linux, not sure yet if any of the orange is related to my patches: https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=e394d7597935c52d4745bcf92b95007f39b60f24

At least one failure is related to nsIFormatConverter.

I feel a bit guilty about dumping this all on smaug, feel free to redirect this to other people who could review this.
