+<p>This reference describes the interfaces and functions provided by the <a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM">XPCOM</a> library. In addition, it details the various helper classes and functions, as well as the components, provided by the <a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/Glue">XPCOM glue</a> library. The contents herein are oriented primarily toward extension developers and people embedding XPCOM in other projects.</p>
+<div class="note">
+ <p><strong>Note:</strong> If you're working on a module in the Mozilla codebase that's compiled with the <code>MOZILLA_INTERNAL_API</code> flag set, some of these APIs -- the string functions and classes in particular -- are not the ones you should be using. See the <a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/Guide/Internal_strings">XPCOM internal string guide</a> for documentation of the internal string API used within the Mozilla codebase.</p>

+<p>Many XPCOM pages return an <code><a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/Reference/Core_functions/nsresult">nsresult</a></code>. Prior to Gecko 19 {{geckoRelease(19)}}, this was an integer that simply returned an error code. It is now a strongly typed <code>enum</code> when XPCOM is built using a C++11 compiler. This causes compile-time errors to occur when improper values are returned as nsresult values, thereby making it easier to catch many bugs.</p>
