XPIDL

Cross Platform Interface Description Language (XPIDL) 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.
