[vlc-devel] Mozilla Plugin - Debugging Suggestions

[James MacLean]

vlc-trunk now compiling on Windows fine... Thanks :).

Want to play with Mozilla plugin. Seems to be working sometimes, but not
others. Probably my process. I needed a gecko-sdk, so I installed
gecko-sdk-win32-1.4b.zip. Then xpidl did not seem to use the -I's, so I
copied the nsI*.idl's to the mozilla dir and by compiling from the root
(vlc-trunk) was able to get the plugin pieces to compile and work. It
seems though that sometimes they work, but if I recompile, then they
won't?

I am unable to get the vlc-trunk Mozilla plugin to work at all :(.

Wondering if there is any "magic" I should be using to compile the plugin 
properly and are there any docs for the Windows compile process? 

How do I debug what is going on with the plugin in Mozilla when I try to 
use it?

Also wonder what is the _right_ doc to read to get a sense of how plugins 
work? I am now reading :

thanks,
JES
