Currently, several idl files define the data type as string while it should really define then as wstring. This cause some data lostage by xpconnect while convert JavaScript object which hold unicode string and convert to const char* in C++ . The worst part is we currently have no system to track these problem. We should add some assertion code so incase we hit some value which is >= U+0100 we will through exception or assert. This bug is the tracking bug for all of these problem. This bug is similar to 28424 but not the same since it seems does not depend on nsString . I will create a seperate bug for implementation the error checking and we should mark all the bug we found block this bug.
