While working on bug 971355, I wrote a class (org.mozilla.gecko.utils.LoggingInterface) that will take an object and return a proxy that logs all calls made on interfaces implemented by that object.

For example, this is very useful for debugging IME code; give the proxy a GeckoInputConnection object, and it will log all calls made on the InputConnection interface. I'm sure it can be useful for other cases, too.

Attachment: a. Add LoggingInterface utility (v1)

LoggingInterface has a create static method that will return a logging proxy. For example,

> Foo foo = new Foo();
> IFoo proxy = (IFoo) LoggingInterface.create(foo);

Now all calls through |proxy| will be logged.
