NAME

Mozilla::DOM::Supports

Mozilla::DOM::Supports is a wrapper around an instance of Mozilla's nsISupports interface, from which everything else inherits.

METHODS

$obj = $supports->QueryInterface($uuid);

    • $uuid (Mozilla::DOM::IID)

    This is how you can get different interfaces from an object. Basically that means a way to get different methods from the same object.

    The $obj return value will be blessed into the class corresponding to whatever interface you requested.

    The $uuid argument is just a string which looks something like

      {69e5df00-7b8b-11d3-af61-00a024ffc08c}

    which you can find in the Mozilla header files, but it's better to use a GetIID class method, like

      $uuid = Mozilla::DOM::EventTarget->GetIID();
