This is stuff that I write down because it took me many wasted hours to get it. | |||
==Regarding importing/loading Certificates into XULRunner== | |||

* It is also good to note that cert8.db, key3.db, and secmod.db do not exist until you use the function for the first time. XULRunner does not create these files when creating a profile. | * It is also good to note that cert8.db, key3.db, and secmod.db do not exist until you use the function for the first time.

==Regarding Certificates in trees== | |||
I thought I could get away with empty <tree></tree> and loading it similar to [http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla1.8/source/security/manager/pki/resources/content/certManager.js#64 how the browser does it]. But this needs more work. | |||
The process goes something like this : | |||
# Cache your certificates using nsscertcache | |||
# Create an nsCertTree and loadCertsFromCache (In my situation, I passed nsIX509Cert.CA_CERT for Certificate Authorities) | |||
# Take the XUL tree object, grab treeBoxObject.view, and set it to your nsCertTree that you created above. | |||
This, at minimum requires tree, treecol, and an empty treechildren. It will fill up with 100+ rows of Certificate authorities. Which is correct, but there all blank. | |||
Once again, [http://mxr.mozilla.org mxr] to the rescue. It seems that your treecol need very specific ID's for this to work, which isn't documented as far as I know. These are : | |||
<table width="100%" border="1"> | |||
<tr> | |||
<th>ID</th> | |||
<th>What is this</th> | |||
</tr> | |||
<tr> | |||
<td>certcol</td> | |||
<td>Certificate Name</td> | |||
</tr> | |||
<tr> | |||
<td>tokencol</td> | |||
<td>Security Device</td> | |||
</tr> | |||
</table> | |||
I think those are the only two. So there should be two cols, with those ids. | |||
