Sample Code for Opera Plugin ??

Hi,

I have problems with my developed mozilla plugin in Opera, so I think it's 
the best ( during I have to wait for opera support ) , if I could get a code 
example to debug and to compare with my code.

Are Opera plugins also comparible to mozilla or are [ some :-(  ] mozilla 
only compartible to Opera ?

Cheers,
Mariano

Opera implements the netscape plug-in API.  In Opera 9 the scripting
extension has been added.  I believe the mozilla plug-in support is
the same, but with some extensions.

One thing to look out for is that compiling a plug-in with the gecko
sdk version 1.6 (or was it 1.7?) and probably later versions will make
the plug-in refuse to run with opera 8 (or earlier).

Another thing to look out for is to not use gtk in the plug-in.  This
is a really ill-advised extension by Mozilla.

One example that may be useful is the plugger plug-in (or mozplugger.
I don't know what the difference between those two are).  Last time I
looked at plugger (a couple of years ago), it was a reasonably
straightforward plug-in.  Some of the things that plugger is trying to
do is rather hackish and somewhat hairy, but you don't have to look at
that part of the code :)

So I found something about it and find out, that this plugin is for Unix ?!
I am on a windows-system - sorry, I forget to say that...
So I am searching for plugins for windows....

If anybody has a link to such source code, please post it....

Oh, sorry.  I sometimes forget that people are running something else
than unix :)

The things that plugger does is very unix and X-specific, but many of
the interface functions are largely the same.  I don't know much about
netscape plug-ins on windows, though.
