XPCOM Component Frameworks Programming

XPCOM

XPCOM, a lightweight cross platform COM work-alike, is the foundation for modularity in Mozilla, but it can also be used stand-alone.

• - Covers the installation of XPCOM and PyXPCOM.
  
• - Computer generated reference of Mozilla components and interfaces.
  
• - Introduction to XPCOM programming: type libraries, the xpidl compiler, and interface discovery.
  
• - Covers component authoring by using a GPS receiver as an example component.
  
• - Explains how to access Mozilla objects as a client.
  
• - Java-to-XPCOM bridge that allows interoperability between Java and XPCOM components.
  
• - This thesis evaluates several of the available techniques for interprocess communications (IPC) in a prototype system for distributed components using XPCOM as the basis. It also takes into consideration marshalling, the transfer of complex data structure
  
• - Covers the implementation of XPCOM objects on the server side.
  
• - An XPCOM/XPConnect implementation of mysqlclient API 3.x. The goal of the project is to provide solid and full mysqlclient interface for JavaScript applications. [Open Source, LGPL]
  
• - XPCOM wrapper around the Xerces validating xml parser. [Open Source, MPL, GPL]
  
• - Allows to navigate through the components and interfaces included in a Mozilla based browser.
  
• - Building the XPCOM development environment.
  
• - Javascript language bindings. It allows Javascript objects to transparently access and manipulate XPCOM objects and also enables Javascript objects to implement XPCOM compliant interfaces.
  
• - Perl language bindings. Allows the use of XPCOM objects from Perl, as well as the ability to implement XPCOM interfaces in Perl. (Jumpline.com, Inc.)
  
• - Introduction to XPCOM, Mozilla's component architecture.
  
• - Python language bindings. (ActiveState)
  
• - Ruby language bindings. Ruby is an object oriented scripting language developed by Yukihiro Matsumoto.
  
• - Puts the final touches on the example XPCOM implementation, shows how to install the component, and demonstrates simple testing methods using XPCShell.
