Update addon for Firefox 4 #62

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. go to https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/2691/
2. try to install it

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expected it to get it installed in Firefox 4. Instead, it is not (yet) ready 
for Fx4?!?!

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Using Windows Vista (64 bit), Firefox 4 b07 (Beta, yes, I know)

Please provide any additional information below.
Nothing as far as I know. No idea if Fx4 has a very different API than Fx3. 
Possibly it needs a rewrite to include the changes for Jetpack 
(https://jetpack.mozillalabs.com/).

Well as Firefox4 is "on the horizon" and I need that "tiny little genius called 
Poster":

Any thoughts of providing a version installable in FF4, Alex?

I've tried Poster with Firefox 4 (after working around the install issues [1]) 
but it doesn't actually work. The results window never appears.

There is some old code in Poster that uses a custom XPCOM object that is now 
incompatible with new XPCOM registrations in Firefox 4.  I've removed that code 
because it really doesn't do much and I'm working on an update right now.
