748209 - Allow compositorParent be created in custom Thread

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Graphics, defect)

Description

[Oleg Romashin (:romaxa)]

For OMTC embedding setup I need to run CompositorParent in native toolkit thread, and message loop merged with native main loop.

Instead of taking Thread as argument we can take message loop + thread ID.

jgilbert points out that the code here is incorrect:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/gfx/layers/ipc/CompositorParent.cpp#188

it should be |if (!time)| or better yet |if (time != 0)|
