547444 - [E10s] Can not access xulapp chrome url using content process event handlers

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 542907

(Core :: IPC, defect)

Description

[Doug Turner (:dougt)]

Fennec wants to use content process event handlers to forward content events to chrome.  In our code we do something like:


messageManager.loadFrameScript("chrome://browser/content/fennec-content.js", true);

The content of fennec-content.js simply has one dump statement.

When using IPC, we do not see the dump statement, but instead we see an error message on the console that says:

Couldn't convert chrome URL: chrome://browser/content/fennec-content.js

The error is from here:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/chrome/src/nsChromeProtocolHandler.cpp#196


We then added this file as an inline script to our main xul file -- just to see if we added it properly to the jar.mn.  We re-ran, and saw the dump without any error.
