Dear All,

I have been trying to get the instance of the Mozilla WebBrowser

nsIWebBrowser webBrowser = (nsIWebBrowser)browser.getWebBrowser() and i have executed a lot of examples and always the value os

nsIWebBrowser webBrowser = (nsIWebBrowser)browser.getWebBrowser() always null

I have executed the below examples from Eclipse SWT Snippet

1. Snippet 267
2. Snippet 306
3. Snippet 362

The end results are always same.

Please let me know what am i missing.

I have downloaded XULRunner and have also configured the required MozillaInterfaces.jar files and have also done a global registry of XUL.

Please let me know how to proceed on the same.

Best Regds
Rahul Chandrashekar.

Hi Rahul,

It's hard to say what the problem is, I have not heard of this failing
before if everything in
http://www.eclipse.org/swt/faq.php#howusejavaxpcom is followed. Some
things for you to verify:

- You are using the XULRunner installation that you think you're using.
To verify this make the first line of your app "Device.DEBUG = true;",
and ensure that your XULRunner's path gets written to stdout when the
first mozilla-based Browser instance is created.

- Your XULRunner is working for you in general (eg.- setUrl() works, etc.)

- Your XULRunner's version is 1.8.1.2 <= version < 2.0. This is not
expected to work with XULRunner 10.x.

- If your XULRunner provides a MozillaGlue.jar file then it must be on
your build path.

Do any of these ideas help?
Grant
