The nsIModule interface.
Methods
PRBool canUnload ( nsIComponentManager compMgr )
void getClassObject ( nsIComponentManager compMgr , nsCIDRef class , nsIIDRef IID , out nsQIResult* result )
void registerSelf ( nsIComponentManager compMgr , nsIFile location , char* loaderStr , char* type )
void unregisterSelf ( nsIComponentManager compMgr , nsIFile location , char* loaderStr )
PRBool canUnload ( nsIComponentManager compMgr )
Module load management
- Arguments:
- compMgr: : The global component manager
- Returns:
- indicates to the caller if the module can be unloaded. Returning PR_TRUE isn't a guarantee that the module will be unloaded. It constitues only willingness of the module to be unloaded. It is very important to ensure that no outstanding references to the module's code/data exist before returning PR_TRUE. Returning PR_FALSE guaratees that the module won't be unloaded.
void getClassObject ( nsIComponentManager compMgr , nsCIDRef class , nsIIDRef IID , out nsQIResult* result )
Object Instance Creation
Obtains a Class Object from a nsIModule for a given CID and IID pair. This class object can either be query to a nsIFactory or a may be query to a nsIClassInfo.
- Arguments:
- compMgr: : The global component manager
- class: : ClassID of object instance requested
- IID: : IID of interface requested
- result
void registerSelf ( nsIComponentManager compMgr , nsIFile location , char* loaderStr , char* type )
One time registration callback
When the nsIModule is discovered, this method will be called so that any setup registration can be preformed.
- Arguments:
- compMgr: : The global component manager
- location: : The location of the nsIModule on disk
- loaderStr: : Opaque loader specific string
- type: : Loader Type being used to load this module
void unregisterSelf ( nsIComponentManager compMgr , nsIFile location , char* loaderStr )
One time unregistration callback
When the nsIModule is being unregistered, this method will be called so that any unregistration can be preformed
- Arguments:
- compMgr: : The global component manager
- location: : The location of the nsIModule on disk
- loaderStr: : Opaque loader specific string
