Mozilla Firefox Bugzilla defect 416300

Post by Shailen »

Hi,

Trunk build is crashing on AIX by setting mLoaderType as NS_LOADER_TYPE_INVALID. ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=416300). I have built the trunk build 20 days ago and that time it worked fine.

After debugging the code, below is what I have observed.

With new build ( which dumps the core ), the registrar->RegisterFactory(info->mCID, info->mDescription,info->mContractID, fact) (in "nsXPComInit.cpp":273) is invoking nsComponentManagerImpl::CreateInstance(const nsCID &aClass, nsISupports *aDelegate,const nsIID &aIID, void **aResult).

Where as with the earlier build ( which wasnt dumping the core) the registrar->RegisterFactory(info->mCID, info->mDescription,info->mContractID, fact) (in nsXPComInit.cpp":277) is invoking nsComponentManagerImpl::RegisterFactory(const nsCID & aClass, const char *aClassName, const char *aContractID,nsIFactory *aFactory).

Note sure what prompted to call different functions from registrar->RegisterFactory?

Can someone please help me understand ?

Thanks,
Shailen.

Moving to Firefox Builds. The Firefox Bugs forum is meant for completed releases of Firefox. eg. 2.0.0.12.

Shailen is this a regression?
Do mozilla builds crash the same way?
If so, can you find a regression range?

Doesn't this really belong in the Third Party/Unofficial Builds forum?

On it goes to Third Party Builds....
