[jbosstools-dev] XULRunner 1.9.2 XPCOM is different for each platform

[Maxim Areshkau]

Hi,
see attachment.
We have extracted common interfaces for all platforms and placed as source
files into org,mozilla.xpcom plugin
https://svn.jboss.org/repos/jbosstools/workspace/mareshkau/xulrunner-1.9.2/org.mozilla.xpcom/
So Now we have working VPE under Mac OS X, Linux and Windows. But Junit
still crashes see this one
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=315588
<https://svn.jboss.org/repos/jbosstools/workspace/mareshkau/xulrunner-1.9.2/org.mozilla.xpcom/>Before
this I have tried to use jars from linux sdk under mac and it caused a crash
of eclipse(https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=316872). I
think because have occurred some native calls which not supported for osx.

> (12:54:02 AM) mareshkau: #2 if #1 will not work, than split out the jar

> (12:56:22 AM) maxandersen: why not just do the split ?
> (12:59:02 AM) mareshkau: because api will be different and somebody

> Why wouldn't we just create fragments for xpcom plugin with platform

> What is different in API?
