Are xpcom.dll and GRE expected to be 100% binary compatible between
Mozilla 1.4 and 1.5?

There are two classes of compatibility at issue. There are frozen functions and interfaces such as NS_InitXPCOM2 and nsIComponentManager. After these are frozen, they are guaranteed to be in any future 1.x releases.


Non-frozen functions, such as NS_ConvertASCIIToUCS2, are not guaranteed to be stable and should not be used by embedders or other users who need to be compatible with multiple releases of XPCOM and the GRE.

--BDS

For example, NS_ConvertASCIIToUSC2 (available in xpcom.dll in 1.4) is
missing in 1.5.

Thanks for any pointer or previous discussion on this,

Chris
