792347 - resource://app/ modules/components are cached as jsloader/resource/gre/... when the application directory is under the gre directory

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: XPCOM, defect)

Description

[Mike Hommey [:glandium]]

In metro builds, the application directory for the browser is $FIREFOX_DIR/browser, when the GRE is under $FIREFOX_DIR/. In this case, resource://app/... urls are canonicalized as resource/gre/browser/... which is then used for startupcache. This also applies to webapprt files under $FIREFOX_DIR/webapprt.

Fix PathifyURI to properly return a resource/app path for resource://app/ urls when the application is in a subdirectory of the GRE

This is actually going to be a problem in the inverse situation of the GRE being in a subdirectory, which is the case in FF-on-XR situations.

Note this only really affects non-omnijar builds, which matters for bug 792050
