Those delegations could be used for either * method-by-method replacement of the generic C++ methods with JavaScript * versions, or for specialization of the generic class using JavaScript to * implement a particular class type. We use a C++ class as the main XPCOM * version for two related reasons: First, we do not want to go through a * C++->js->C++ XPCOM transition just to execute a C++ method. Second, C++ * inheritance is different from JS inheritance, and sometimes the C++ code * will ignore the XPCOM parts of the JS, and just execute using C++ * inheritance. * * In JavaScript land, the implementation currently uses the XPCOM object for * JavaScript calls, with the last object in the prototype chain defaulting * to calling using the CPP object, specified in an instance-specific * this.cppBase object. * * Examples of use can be found in the test files for jsaccount stuff. */ const EXPORTED_SYMBOLS = ["JSAccountUtils"]; var JSAccountUtils = {}; // Logging usage: set mailnews.jsaccount.loglevel to the word "Debug" to // increase logging level. var log = console.createInstance({ prefix: "mail.jsaccount", maxLogLevel: "Warn", maxLogLevelPref: "mail.jsaccount.loglevel", }); /** * * Generic factory to create XPCOM components under JsAccount. * * @param aProperties This a a const JS object that describes the specific * details of a particular JsAccount XPCOM object: * { * baseContractID: string contractID used to create the base generic C++ * object.
