Mailnews should not use NS_NewAtom, instead it should directly use the interfaces to create and use atoms.
Why?
Oops! I missed this in the description. NS_NewAtom is not available under the frozen linkage, so is NS_RegisterStaticAtoms.

Ah, okay. :) Probably needs a patch, though, before requesting checkin. ;-)

Prasad, are you working on this ? Could someone give an example of code replacement ?

(In reply to Prasad Sunkari from comment #2) > NS_NewAtom is not available under the frozen linkage, so is > NS_RegisterStaticAtoms. NS_NewAtom was replaced with MsgNewAtom in bug 377319. NS_RegisterStaticAtoms was #ifdef'd in bug 306324.
