Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Toolkit Graveyard :: XULRunner, defect)

Description

[Ben Longoria]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10_5_4; en-us) AppleWebKit/525.18 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/3.1.2 Safari/525.20.1
Build Identifier: XULRunner 1.9 (

The "java" global object is undefined in a barebones example XULRunner application. Launching with the Error Console and evaluating "java" shows "java is not defined". While in Firefox 3.0.1 it shows "[JavaPackage java]". The Java plugin is present, and I've ensured that the plugin is enabled via the "security.enable_java" preference. The link attached to this issue is the example app I am working with.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Launch XULRunner 1.9 based application on Mac with Error Console
2. Type "java" in Error Console eval field
3. Click "Evaluate"
Actual Results:  
shows "java is not defined"

Expected Results:  
shows "[JavaPackage java]"

XULRunner has been removed from the Mozilla tree: see https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.platform/_rFMunG2Bgw for context.

I am closing all the bugs currently in the XULRunner bugzilla component, in preparation for moving this component to the graveyard. If this bug is still valid in a XULRunner-less world, it will need to be moved to a different bugzilla component to be reopened.
