I try to call this code dynamically: nsCOMPtr<nsIPromptService> promptService = do_GetService("@mozilla.org/embedcomp/prompt-service;1")); promptService->Alert(NULL, NULL, NULL); I do the following: nsISomeInterface* mXPTCStub; nsresult rc; nsXPTCVariant params[3];
Why are you trying to do this? Are you writing a shim layer that connects some other dynamic/scripting language to XPCOM?
rc = NS_GetXPTCallStub(NS_IPROMPTSERVICE_IID, proxy, &mXPTCStub); params[0].val.p = NULL; params[0].type = nsXPTType::T_VOID; params[0].flags = 0; params[1].val.p = (void*)title; params[1].type = nsXPTType::T_CHAR_STR; params[1].flags = 0; params[2].val.p = (void*)text; params[2].type = nsXPTType::T_CHAR_STR; params[2].flags = 0; rc = NS_InvokeByIndex(mXPTCStub, 1, 3, params); NS_DestroyXPTCallStub(mXPTCStub); But I don`t know how to use NS_GetXPTCallStub! What means the second and third parameter from NS_GetXPTCallStub?
Have you read the doccomments at http://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/xpcom/reflect/xptcall/xptcall.h#174 ?
If you are trying to *invoke* a method, you don't need an xptcall stub at all. You just need NS_InvokeByIndex.
An XPTCall stub is used to *implement* an XPCOM object whose type/interface definition isn't known at compile time, typically by mirroring it to an underlying scriptable object. You would need to implement a c++ class which implements nsIXPTCProxy and implements CallMethod.
