Dear list, I wonder if it's possible to develop extensions (aka Add-Ons) for Firefox (or in my case Thunderbird). I'm totaly unfamiliar to the stuff right now. But the advantage I could think of is 1) I don't know C++ and 2) it is easy to cross compile code for different platforms. Writing extensions without javascript needs XPCOM bindings. I saw that there're some for using the gecko rendering engine in Firefox. Is there a more general thing to access XPCOM? Anybody has experience with this? I'm a total C++ noob. Any help would be appreciated.
Try looking at the gecko integration package. It is meant to do the opposite (integrating gecko in your app) but it also uses
xpcom, and you should get ideas from that. Michael. _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
