IDL Author's Guide
This document describes rules and
syntax, and conventions and best
practices for describing XPCOM interfaces in XPIDL. XPIDL is
currently used to generate XPCOM headers and typelib files, and may someday
be used for generation of documentation and other interface data
as well.
Rules and Syntax
XPIDL is based closely on OMG IDL, with some XPCOM-specific
extensions. The section documents the complete XPIDL syntax,
as well as information on the C++ header constructs produced
for each syntactic element.
Conventions and Best
Practices
In order to write interfaces that are XPConnect- and XPCOM-friendly, there are
some additional conventions to consider.
