Hi,
Thanx for your prompt help.

I have used the XPCOM.DLL that is installed by Netscape 6.2.
After taking a Dump using dumpbin /export I can view that the =>
NS_InitXPCOM2 is exported as follows :
=================
O/P of => Dumpbin /exports
1619 652 0000481F
?NS_InitXPCOM2@@YAIPAPAVnsIServiceManager@@PAVnsIFile@@PAVnsIDirectoryServiceProvider@@@Z
=================
As well as I tried using LoadLibrary for XPCOM.DLL and queried for
NS_InitXPCOM2 this was also successful.
Can you please shed some more Light on the failure of NS_InitXPCOM2,
for Netscape's XPCOM DLL.
One more question I face is that can we avoid using the SmartPointer
(nsCOMPtr)? If yes, please let me know how? with a sample if possible.
Thankx,
Nitin
