It is useful because... 1. no plugin in moz source base that uses a "newer" xcode 2. no instructions on how to create a plugin from scratch in xcode In the sample itself, you have to edit the header locations (see getinfo in the context menu for the project) to point to the correct location for mozilla headers. The following notes I wrote while working on this may be a bit stale, but should help in getting someone moving in the right direction: In xcode 1.5, create new project and select "Carbon Bundle" for the project type edit Info.plist change CFBundlePackageType to NSPL (or BRPL) change CFBundleSignature to MOSS change CFBundleIdentifier to something unique save Info.plist create a new file, call it pluginname.r add the following text to it: #define SystemSevenOrLater 1 #include <Types.r> #include <SysTypes.r> resource 'STR#' (127) {{ "testplug File Type Description" }}; resource 'STR#' (128) {{ "application/x-testplug-mimetype", "testplugfileextension" }}; resource 'STR#' (126) {{ "testplug for Mozilla Firefox 1.0" }}; save it Add the library libplugingate_s.a (from modules/plugin/tools/sdk/samples/common) Select the project icon in xcode (very top icon in left pane), then in the file menu select "Get Info" Select the "styles" tab "Rez Search Paths" should include /Developer/Headers/FlatCarbon set "Project Name" to the plugin name set "Wrapper Extension" to "plugin" "Other C Flags" and "Other C++ Flags" should include "-DXP_MACOSX=1 -DNO_X11=1 -DUSE_SYSTEM_CONSOLE=1" "Other Warning Flags" should include "-Wmost -Wno-four-char-constants -Wno-unknown-pragmas" "Header Search Paths" needs to include: /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/sdk/xpcom/include /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/caps /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/java /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/js /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/nspr /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/nspr/obsolete /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/oji /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/plugin /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/xpcom /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/xpconnect /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/string /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include/dom /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/dist/include /Users/shanec/main/Apps/Mozilla-devel/build/moz-1.7.5-ko39-release/mozilla/modules/plugin/tools/sdk/samples/include /Developer/Headers/FlatCarbon Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce:

sample plugin using xcode 1.5 and hiview

another note, lots of cruft in the code as I was trying to deal with the draw issues from bug 277067. I later got the patches there working which resolve most of my issues.

So is this bug about adding this sample to the source tree?

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.3a4) Gecko/20100407 MozillaDeveloperPreview/3.7a4 Please update if you are able to still reproduce with the latest nightly build ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk/

Aravind, this is not a user-facing bug, so it can't be checked in a nightly build (and shouldn't be CLOSEMEd). Josh/Shane, does the current Mac sample/test plugin cover this, or is this bug still needed?

We don't need another sample plugin for Mac OS X.
