nsICycleCollectorListener

Interface to pass to the cycle collector to get information about the cycle collector graph while it is being built.

Introduced
Gecko 2.0
Inherits from: nsISupports Last changed in Gecko 2.0 (Firefox 4 / Thunderbird 3.3 / SeaMonkey 2.1)

The order of calls will be call to begin(); then for every node in the graph a call to noteObject() and calls to noteEdge() for every edge starting at that node; then a call to beginDescriptions(); then for every black node in the cycle collector graph a call to either describeRefcountedObject() or to describeGCedObject(); and then a call to end(). If begin() returns an error none of the other functions will be called.

Method overview

void begin();
void beginDescriptions();
void describeGCedObject(in unsigned long long aAddress, in boolean aMarked);
