      Due to Mozilla change the layout of nsIComponentManager, Mozilla trunk code can't work with JRE 1.4.


      Name: gm110360 Date: 02/19/2002


      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      java version "1.4.0"
      Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.4.0-b92)
      Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.4.0-b92, mixed mode)


      FULL OPERATING SYSTEM VERSION :
      SunOS xx 5.8 Generic_108528-08 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-280R


      EXTRA RELEVANT SYSTEM CONFIGURATION :
      Mozilla is compiled using Forte 6 update 2

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      When using Sun's Forte 6 update 2 compilers to compile
      Mozilla 0.9.8, registration of Java using regxpcom
      does not work.

      It workes fine when using JDK 1.4 beta 2.

      ldd of sparc/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji140.so shows
      that beta 2 depends on GTK but FCS does not.

      This may be related to bug id 4637398
      though as it works with beta 2 it does not
      look like the interface was changed.

      STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
      1.Compile GTK and Mozilla 0.9.8 using Forte 6 update 2
      2.Register java using regxpcom
      ....sparc/ns610/libjavaplugin_oji140.so


      EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
      Expected: Java plugin to be registered in Mozilla.

      Result of above steps: no java plugin.

      If regxpcom is done on JDK 1.4 beta 2 version, it works.

      This bug can be reproduced always.
