XPIDL

XPIDL: XPIDL (Cross Platform Interface Description Language) is the interface definition language developed by Mozilla.org to specify XPCOM interfaces.^[1]^[2]

It is similar to the Object Management Group's CORBA IDL.^[1]

Mozilla provides a utility xpidl that converts the IDL files into XPCOM Type Library (.xpt) files.
