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
