Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core Graveyard :: Java to XPCOM Bridge, defect)

Description

Attachment: patch

Provide an API for wrapping an XPCOM object in a Java Proxy, and for wrapping a Java object in an XPCOM proxy.

This API is needed for the Mozilla Everywhere project (https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=154124), which will allow using Mozilla as the embedded browser in SWT across multiple platforms.  They have been experimenting with a private version of this patch.

This patch is spun off of the patch from bug 299263.

patch for 1.8.1.x branch (checked in)

I know it's rather late in the cycle, but I was wondering if I could sneak this in for 1.8.1.2.  This is a XULRunner- (and JavaXPCOM-) only patch.  As mentioned in the description, this is needed by the SWT guys, so they have a proper XR build to work with the latest SWT milestone changes.

Bloody hell.  I had this fix on my Windows machine, but I forgot to check it in.  Just checked it in to the trunk.

Any chance of getting this in for 1.8.1.2?  Once again, this is XULRunner only, and in no way affects Firefox.

We've already tagged and spun 4 release candidates for 1.8.1.2, this doesn't make it.
