Re: How to test developed component.

[Raj Saini]

Hi,

If you are developing against gecko-sdk, you also download the binaries 
of Mozilla dist. You will find the xpchell in the binary distrubution of 
  mozilla. Drop your component on the components directory of the 
mozilla dist and test.

You will find the following link very helpful 
http://books.mozdev.org/html/mozilla-chp-8.html in creating and testing 
a component in JS as well as C++.

But browsing through full sdk I was not able to find out a location

component is working well.


Also for excersizing your component in a smaller environment XPCShell 
works well. XPCShell is a command line JS interpreter. It's documented 
here http://www.mozilla.org/scriptable/XPCShell.html

I am very naive developer in XPCOM component development (even in COM 
development). I restating that I am using gecko-sdk for development of 
XPCOM components. I am searched full directory of gecko-sdk...I am 
unable to find any executable name XPCShell(searched using case ignore)? 
Will you please answer me from the very naive perpective.

Abhishek.
