It overlaps them significantly, but goes beyond them in capabilities. XPCOM sits above the standard libraries. Its role is to extend them with facilities tailored to XPCOM development in general, and specifically the needs of Mozilla. Like the standard libraries, XPCOM must be a fairly self-contained library, so as not to encumber clients with any unnecessary external dependencies.", "sections": [{"id": "The_Role_of_XPCOM", "title": " The Role of XPCOM "}, {"id": "Changes_to_the_Build_Hierarchy", "title": " Changes to the Build Hierarchy "}, {"id": "Changes_to_APIs.2C_Functionality.2C_and_Implementations", "title": " Changes to APIs, Functionality, and Implementations "}, {"id": "Things_we_need_to_evangelize", "title": " Things we need to evangelize "}, {"id": "Original_Document_Information", "title": " Original Document Information "}], "slug": "Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/XPCOM_tasks", "review_tags": []}
