Our shell wizard Jakub wrote me a script to analyze our source code and list all nsI* interfaces that we use, along with the occurrence count for each one. Here are the results. The script is a quick-and-dirty first version that needs to be extended to eliminate false positives (”nsI” in the middle of a word, “nsI” followed by a lowercase letter, etc.) and to add other interface prefixes (e.g. mozI*). Concrete suggestions would be most appreciated.

Once the script is a bit more mature I’ll start bugging other companies and projects to run it and give us the results. Over time I’d like to get a page per interface onto the Mozpad wiki, linking to the corresponding page on MDC and adding info about who is using it, how much and for what purpose(s). This information should be invaluable in deciding what should and shouldn’t go into the SDK.
