    <p>I'm trying to replace the <code>nsICertificateDialogs</code> dialog with my own implementation. I already have an extension that handles smime mails from webmail. I want to be able to use the Mozilla cert store with my extension. The only possibility I've found to export smime certs/keys (to use it in my extension) is via exporting a pfx file.</p> <p>I unregistered the original certifica tedialog and registered mine as described here <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10613562/failure-while-calling-nsix509certdb-nsix509certdb-from-command-line">Failure while calling nsIX509CertDB.nsIX509CertDB from command line</a> (unregister the old factory and register mine with the correct contractID). When I call <code>Cc[@mozilla.org/nsCertificateDialogs;1].getService(Ci.nsICertificateDialogs);</code> my class gets instantiated. When calling <code>certDB.importPKCS12File(null, certfile)</code> I get an <code>NS_ERROR_FAILURE</code> and my dialog class is not instantiated.</p> <p>What is the difference when FF instantiates the certificate dialog. How can I test it? What am I missing?</p> <p>edit: my certificate dialog class does not get instanciated by ff - even when called with a valid token certDB.importPKCS12File(token, certfile); In change calling var certdialogInterface = Cc[sMimeCertificateDialog.mozillaContractID] .getService(Ci.nsICertificateDialogs); correctly instanciates my class (followed by some QueryInterface calls)</p> <p>edit: I uploaded a (hopefully) simple reproducer to <a href="http://www.sodgeit.de/dialog_reproducer.zip" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.sodgeit.de/dialog_reproducer.zip</a> Look at src/chrome/components/smime_certificate_dialog.js and at src/tests/smime_certificate_dialog_test.js</p>

    1. COAre you calling `certDB.importPKCS12File(null, certfile)` after calling `getService` yourself? Then it isn't surprising that this call doesn't result in instantiation - services are only instantiated once.

    2. CO@WladimirPalant This is a hint. It is the same xpcshell that executes both unit tests. I will check this when I have the source at hand. Still this would explain the missing constructor call - but not the NS_ERROR_FAILURE - since my implementation of nsICertificateDialogs unconditionally allows all operations.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
