Implementing nsIClassInfo is particularly helpful if you have * a C++ class which implements multiple interfaces and which you access from * JavaScript. If that class implements nsIClassInfo, the JavaScript code * won't have to call QueryInterface on instances of the class; all methods * from all interfaces returned by GetInterfaces() will be available * automagically. * * Here's all you need to do. Given a class * * class nsFooBar : public nsIFoo, public nsIBar { }; * * you should already have the following nsISupports implementation in its cpp * file: * * NS_IMPL_ISUPPORTS(nsFooBar, nsIFoo, nsIBar). * * Change this to * * NS_IMPL_CLASSINFO(nsFooBar, nullptr, 0, NS_FOOBAR_CID) * NS_IMPL_ISUPPORTS_CI(nsFooBar, nsIFoo, nsIBar) * * If nsFooBar is threadsafe, change the 0 above to nsIClassInfo::THREADSAFE. * If it's a singleton, use nsIClassInfo::SINGLETON. The full list of flags is * in nsIClassInfo.idl. * * The nullptr parameter is there so you can pass a function for converting * from an XPCOM object to a scriptable helper. Unless you're doing * specialized JS work, you can probably leave this as nullptr. * * This file also defines the NS_IMPL_QUERY_INTERFACE_CI macro, which you can * use to replace NS_IMPL_QUERY_INTERFACE, if you use that instead of * NS_IMPL_ISUPPORTS. * * That's it! The rest is gory details. * * * Notice that nsFooBar didn't need to inherit from nsIClassInfo in order to * "implement" it. However, after adding these macros to nsFooBar, you you can * QueryInterface an instance of nsFooBar to nsIClassInfo. How can this be? * * The answer lies in the NS_IMPL_ISUPPORTS_CI macro. It modifies nsFooBar's * QueryInterface implementation such that, if we ask to QI to nsIClassInfo, it * returns a singleton object associated with the class. (That singleton is * defined by NS_IMPL_CLASSINFO.) So all nsFooBar instances will return the * same object when QI'ed to nsIClassInfo. (You can see this in * NS_IMPL_QUERY_CLASSINFO below.) * * This hack breaks XPCOM's rules, since if you take an instance of nsFooBar, * QI it to nsIClassInfo, and then try to QI to nsIFoo, that will fail. On the * upside, implementing nsIClassInfo doesn't add a vtable pointer to instances * of your class. * * In principal, you can also implement nsIClassInfo by inheriting from the * interface. But some code expects that when it QI's an object to * nsIClassInfo, it gets back a singleton which isn't attached to any * particular object. If a class were to implement nsIClassInfo through * inheritance, that code might QI to nsIClassInfo and keep the resulting * object alive, thinking it was only keeping alive the classinfo singleton, * but in fact keeping a whole instance of the class alive. See, e.g., bug * 658632. * * Unless you specifically need to have a different nsIClassInfo instance for * each instance of your class, you should probably just implement nsIClassInfo * as a singleton. */ class NS_COM_GLUE GenericClassInfo : public nsIClassInfo { public: struct ClassInfoData { typedef NS_CALLBACK(GetInterfacesProc)(uint32_t* countp, nsIID*** array); typedef NS_CALLBACK(GetLanguageHelperProc)(uint32_t language, nsISupports** helper); GetInterfacesProc getinterfaces; GetLanguageHelperProc getlanguagehelper; uint32_t flags; nsCID cid; }; NS_DECL_ISUPPORTS_INHERITED NS_DECL_NSICLASSINFO GenericClassInfo(const ClassInfoData* data) : mData(data) { } private: const ClassInfoData* mData; }; #define NS_CLASSINFO_NAME(_class) g##_class##_classInfoGlobal #define NS_CI_INTERFACE_GETTER_NAME(_class) _class##_GetInterfacesHelper #define NS_DECL_CI_INTERFACE_GETTER(_class) \ extern NS_IMETHODIMP NS_CI_INTERFACE_GETTER_NAME(_class) \ (uint32_t *, nsIID ***); #define NS_IMPL_CLASSINFO(_class, _getlanguagehelper, _flags, _cid) \ NS_DECL_CI_INTERFACE_GETTER(_class) \ static const GenericClassInfo::ClassInfoData k##_class##ClassInfoData = { \ NS_CI_INTERFACE_GETTER_NAME(_class), \ _getlanguagehelper, \ _flags | nsIClassInfo::SINGLETON_CLASSINFO, \ _cid, \ }; \ mozilla::AlignedStorage2 k##_class##ClassInfoDataPlace; \ nsIClassInfo* NS_CLASSINFO_NAME(_class) = nullptr; #define NS_IMPL_QUERY_CLASSINFO(_class) \ if ( aIID.Equals(NS_GET_IID(nsIClassInfo)) ) { \ if (!NS_CLASSINFO_NAME(_class)) \ NS_CLASSINFO_NAME(_class) = new (k##_class##ClassInfoDataPlace.addr()) \ GenericClassInfo(&k##_class##ClassInfoData); \ foundInterface = NS_CLASSINFO_NAME(_class); \ } else #define NS_CLASSINFO_HELPER_BEGIN(_class, _c) \ NS_IMETHODIMP \ NS_CI_INTERFACE_GETTER_NAME(_class)(uint32_t *count, nsIID ***array) \ { \ *count = _c; \ *array = (nsIID **)nsMemory::Alloc(sizeof (nsIID *) * _c); \ uint32_t i = 0; #define NS_CLASSINFO_HELPER_ENTRY(_interface) \ (*array)[i++] = (nsIID*)nsMemory::Clone(&NS_GET_IID(_interface), \ sizeof(nsIID)); #define NS_CLASSINFO_HELPER_END \ MOZ_ASSERT(i == *count, "Incorrent number of entries"); \ return NS_OK; \ } #define NS_IMPL_CI_INTERFACE_GETTER(aClass, ...) \ MOZ_STATIC_ASSERT_VALID_ARG_COUNT(__VA_ARGS__); \ NS_CLASSINFO_HELPER_BEGIN(aClass, \ MOZ_PASTE_PREFIX_AND_ARG_COUNT(/* No prefix */, \ __VA_ARGS__)) \ MOZ_FOR_EACH(NS_CLASSINFO_HELPER_ENTRY, (), (__VA_ARGS__)) \ NS_CLASSINFO_HELPER_END #define NS_IMPL_QUERY_INTERFACE_CI(aClass, ...) \ MOZ_STATIC_ASSERT_VALID_ARG_COUNT(__VA_ARGS__); \ NS_INTERFACE_MAP_BEGIN(aClass) \ MOZ_FOR_EACH(NS_INTERFACE_MAP_ENTRY, (), (__VA_ARGS__)) \ NS_INTERFACE_MAP_ENTRY_AMBIGUOUS(nsISupports, MOZ_ARG_1(__VA_ARGS__)) \ NS_IMPL_QUERY_CLASSINFO(aClass) \ NS_INTERFACE_MAP_END #define NS_IMPL_ISUPPORTS_CI(aClass, ...) \ NS_IMPL_ADDREF(aClass) \ NS_IMPL_RELEASE(aClass) \ NS_IMPL_QUERY_INTERFACE_CI(aClass, __VA_ARGS__) \ NS_IMPL_CI_INTERFACE_GETTER(aClass, __VA_ARGS__) #endif // nsIClassInfoImpl_h__
