Since binary components are linked against a single Gecko SDK, a dependency to a particular version of Gecko is created. If the component uses only "frozen" XPCOM interfaces, there is a good chance the same binary component will work with different versions of Gecko (version 1.8 and 1.9, for example). The more likely case is that the component uses "unfrozen" interfaces and those interfaces can change between Gecko versions. This can create a difficult situation for extension developers trying to support multiple Gecko versions (Firefox 2 and 3, for example).</dd><dt class="landingPageList"><a href="/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Tech/XPCOM/Creating_a_Python_XPCOM_component">Creating a Python XPCOM component</a></dt><dd class="landingPageList"><a href="http://books.mozdev.org/html"><em>Creating Applications with Mozilla</em></a> already provides <a href="http://books.mozdev.org/html/mozilla-chp-8-sect-2.html">a tutorial</a> for making a simple JavaScript or C++ component (implementing the <code>nsISimple</code> interface).
