While checking bug 623110,
I noticed SeaMonkey DirectoryProvider was (almost) not updated since ages.

I wonder whether we should port (some) updates from Firefox.

1. Bug 364297. We don't have contract requirements with Google, so we don't need to make Google our default home page and search provider in CJKT locales.

2. Bug 392771. We don't have search partners or requirements from Linux distros where we need distro specific search plugins. It might be good to take though. CC'ing some Council members for a policy decision.

3. Bug 344159 - Ensure FF2 search service interacts appropriately with CCK extensions for partner and corporate deployment. Dunno might be useful. CCK does work with SeaMonkey after all.

4. Bug 366442 - search.rdf is obsolete. Yeah we are now using openSearch

5. Bug 296430 - Allow extensions to ship searchplugins. I think we want this if we don't already have this

distribution/ doesn't mean Linux distros, but means someone else distributing a specialized version of our binaries with some stuff like add-ons, searchplugins, etc. added. And yes, supporting that would be nice, even if we don't have an immediate need right now.
Hey Jag, are you interested in taking this bug?

Don't change this, we need it for people upgrading from 2.0.x. r=me with that fixed.

Don't bother including stuff that nsSuiteDirectoryProvider.h already includes.

>+  nsCOMArray<nsIFile> baseFiles;
Some of the patch must be missing, because you never use this once you've appended to it.

Nit: no blank lines after { please.

Don't include these, you don't use them here.

ok

But it's used a couple of lines down:

+  nsCOMArray<nsIFile> baseFiles;
+
+  /**
+   * We want to preserve the following order, since the search service loads
+   * engines in first-loaded-wins order.
+   *   - extension search plugin locations (prepended below using
+   *     NS_NewUnionEnumerator)
+   *   - distro search plugin locations
+   *   - user search plugin locations (profile)
+   *   - app search plugin location (shipped engines)
+   */
+  AppendDistroSearchDirs(dirSvc, baseFiles);
+  AppendFileKey(NS_APP_USER_SEARCH_DIR, dirSvc, baseFiles);
+  AppendFileKey(NS_APP_SEARCH_DIR, dirSvc, baseFiles);
+

Or did I misunderstand?

But it doesn't compile without these..

It's appended a couple of lines down, but once you've appended to it, you never use it.

Well, it's unclear because you added them to both files, but I only meant you to remove these four from the .h file, and remove the other three from the .cpp file.

[Actually we don't need this in the .cpp either because it's in the .h]

Good news! You're now using baseFiles.
Bad news! You're not using baseEnum yet.
Note that there's a catch because our version of AppendingEnumerator is simpler than Firefox's, so you can't quite just copy and paste.
