XPCOMGC/nsCOMPtr rewrite

This page is totally work-in-progress

• The XPCOMGC work is being based off the actionmonkey tree

hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/actionmonkey src
cd src
python client.py checkout

• Patches are being kept in an mqueue repository.
  • Enable mqueue in your ~/.hgrc:

[extensions]
hgext.mq =

• • Pull the repository

hg clone ssh://hg.mozilla.org/users/bsmedberg_mozilla.com/xpcomgc-patches .hg/patches

For the stack-nsCOMPtr work, don't apply the xpcomgcbase.patch patch:

hg qgoto temps-rules.patch

Notes

• It may be necessary to configure with --disable-pedantic
• It will probably be necessary to disable warnings-as-errors

make WARNINGS_AS_ERRORS=
