/**
 * This service allows access to the current thread's Chromium MessageLoop

 * or may not make sense for you to use this interface.  If you're calling from
 * JS, you don't have a choice!
 *
 * Right now, you can only call PostIdleTask(), and the wrath of khuey is
 * stopping you from adding other methods.

Methods

impl nsIMessageLoop
[src]

[src]

Cast this nsIMessageLoop to one of its base interfaces.

impl nsIMessageLoop
[src]

[src]

/**
   * Posts a task to be run when this thread's message loop is idle, or after
   * ensureRunsAfterMS milliseconds have elapsed.  (That is, the task is
   * guaranteed to run /eventually/.)
   *
   * Note that if the event loop is busy, we will hold a reference to the task
   * until ensureRunsAfterMS milliseconds have elapsed.  Be careful when
   * specifying long timeouts and tasks which hold references to windows or
   * other large objects, because you can leak memory in a difficult-to-detect
   * way!

Trait Implementations

impl XpCom for nsIMessageLoop
[src]

IID: nsIID = nsID(1049385192, 58668, 17376, [142, 102, 102, 156, 167, 136, 255, 95])

[src]

Perform a QueryInterface call on this object, attempting to dynamically cast it to the requested interface type. Returns Some(RefPtr) if the cast succeeded, and None otherwise. Read more

impl RefCounted for nsIMessageLoop
[src]

[src]

Increment the reference count.

[src]

Decrement the reference count, potentially freeing backing memory.

impl Deref for nsIMessageLoop
[src]

The resulting type after dereferencing.

[src]

Dereferences the value.
