May be this will help
Assumption: /usr/X11R6/lib/firefox is having components, chrome, defaults,
extensions, greprefs, icons, plugins
nsCOMPtr<nsILocalFile> nsFile;
NS_NewLocalFile(NS_LITERAL_STRING("/usr/X11R6/lib/firefox"), TRUE,
getter_AddRefs(nsFile));
nsresult rv = NS_InitEmbedding(nsFile, nsnull);
if (rv != NS_OK) {
cerr << "Embedding failed.." << rv << endl;
exit(1);
}

Please bear with me here, I am a total nubie to the Gecko SDK. I currently
have an app that uses the IE COM control...works okay..but I REALLY want to
get off of IE and use the Gecko engine. I have a fairly okay understanding
of MS COM and have been reading what I can get my hands on for XPCOM. My
App is not going to be a web browser, I just need the Gecko engine to render
the HTML for me and for me to be able to grab events from buttons clicked on
the HTML. I've been looking for about a week now on getting this setup and
working...I think once I get the basic stuff working here I'll be okay. I
DLed the Gecko SDK, set up a very basic C++ app that did nothing but call
NS_InitEmbedding(nsnull, nsnull). I see the first param is the Mozilla Bin
Directory, but docs said both can be nsnull. I think read somewhere that
I'll need to compile the Mozilla source for certain embedding libraries...is
this true or does the Gecko SDK hold everything I need? Anyways, I get back
the error "NS_ERROR_FACTORY_NOT_REGISTERED (0x80040154)". So, I'm missing
some XPCOM lib that isn't reg'ed? If I just call NS_InitXPCOM2(nsnull,
nsnull, nsnull) it goes okay, but as soon as I try and create a Web Browser
instance (CreateInstanceByContractID() via nsIComponentManager) I get the
same error. I'm just needing some good guidance and confirmation of some
things here as to how to get started. Excuse my ignorance and much thanks
in advance!
