I used Altos Xenix long before Windows.

MattATobin: hi, hope you are well. Do you know any issues with backporting bug 1453487?

hey IanN_Away

stand by

IanN_Away: extensions i would guess doesn't look like change in functionality just making it not scriptable and builtin

IanN_Away: xr.thereisonlyxul.org/seamonkey-2.5…dent?i=nsIDOMEventListener&strict=1

yeah basically it generally cripples the useability of it and since no toolkit extensions makes it internal to mozilla.. more of the parts we need only for me never thee

is it blocking other stuff?

basically if it is an xpcom interface .. changing it breaks extensions and likely the fe

but its widespread effect and utility in actual practice of existing.. seamonkey extensions.. i dunno

would have to check em out scan for usage

do i think the platfom has lost much no but extension wise perhaps

MattATobin: could probably skip the idl changes

yeah idealy you can pull shit like the mozilla js modules where both is preserved

i'd suggest trying to apply it just leave out removing scriptability and do a common older test case .. if it works ship it if it doesn't back to the drawing board IanN_Away

MattATobin: thanks

cause obviously the codebase at large doesn't require it to be scriptable just some fe and extensions

right?

MattATobin: yeah, just extensions I expect

yeah if you just keep it scriptable it more than likely will Just Work

i mean if it doesn't the fe will bust so there you go

feel like I am missing a piece of info in xpidl.. if I come up with it I'll let you know.. btw if you want some linux testing I am capable of that now

damn simpler building there than the mess windows is becoming

heh handleEvent is used for preview of personas

and to sniff for search engines

two things firefox doesn't do anymore

places.. DOMi of course love domi.. and the sdk which means extensions AND devtools (unless you got devtools off the sdk already) yeah i think it will be obvious if it works ot not no sneaky hidden edgecases here it works everything works it doesn't a bunchastuff breaks IanN_Away

MattATobin: well i've just kicked off a build with the patches minus removing scriptable to see what happens

IanN_Away: one day you will have to inform me of this hg dark magic

how you all accomplish it

just being able to replay with excludes is facinating to me

MattATobin: I just make use of queues

MattATobin mercurial queues is unique and well suited for this. You just export the patches and add them to a series files. Can move them arround and rebase/change until you decide it it permanent check-in time.
