General presentation
Hello !
My name is Anthony LOISEAU, I am a french student in IT at INSA Rennes. I am working on VLC through my internship in actech-innovation (Angers, France).
VLC project
My work will be mainly focussed on mozilla-plugin and activeX parts of VLC.
Mozilla plugin
The file projects/mozilla/control/npolibvlc.cpp describe the API which should be accessible by moz-plugin. The dedicated page for its API is here.
List of methods which should be accessible
Here is the list extracted from the file projects/mozilla/control/npolibvlc.cpp by a script(will be given soon, need doc, clean and a little debug maybe) :

VLC tips
Javascript debugging
Having a JS debugger is very usefull to test mozilla-plugin. Firebug is a very usefull Firefox extension for that stuff.
Compile under debian Etch
If you have a pthread eror under Debian Etch, try this tip :
su sed -e 's/define\s*_POSIX_SPIN_LOCKS\s*/define _POSIX_SPIN_LOCKS -1 \/\/ wrong: /g' -i /usr/include/bits/posix_opt.h exit
