1007722 - Add helpers for special JS refcounts in the cycle collector

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: XPCOM, defect)

Description

[Andrew McCreight [:mccr8]]

Olli points out that these weird checks for a refcount of 0 we have sprinkled around are confusing, so we should add a helper function like IsGrayJS() to PtrInfo.  A similar one that null checks mParticipant would also be nice.
