I need nsIRegion idl-ified for d&d scripting through JS. There are things in it that make it not IDL-able such as defining and passing around structs. Maybe breaking into two separate interfaces (one pure, the other having the extra c++ stuff which JS probably doesn't need anyway) would suffice, but this requires changing all platform implementations. This is a blocker for scripting d&d in JS.

Patrick, Michael did the region stuff I think, so I'm assigning this to you. Sorry if you're not the right choice
nsIScriptableRegion is in the tree, and nsIDragService is now referencing it. Now we just have to make nsRegionMac/Win/Gtk implement this interface.
what's up with this? what is the target milestone?

Ah, you designed the interface, but didn't implement it.
you want me to do the work as well?
If you have the time. Otherwise, I could do the Mac/Windows and let Ramiro do UNIX.
that would be preferred, if you can.

nsRegionMac.cpp can now handle a QueryInterface to nsIScriptableRegion, by creating an instance of nsScriptableRegion, which delegates to an nsIRegion. Handing the bug to Ramiro to take care of this on UNIX.
my question is this, i guess: how are these created? When JS is going to create one, it will need to create a nsIScriptableRegion, not an nsIRegion (since there is no idl for nsIRegion, it won't know about it). Is there a mechanism for doing this?

Reassigning to pavlov cause he likes bugs.

Putting on [PDT]+ radar.

reassigning to beard since he has a fix

nsIRegion won't be IDL-ified, but nsIScriptableRegion already is. I've created a new CID for creation with a progID, and would like to check this in.

Kevin, I'm not sure how to verify this fix.
This is a code-level change. You can mark it verified based on my comment.
