Allows a client to initialize an object implementing this interface with
the usually required window setup information.
@param parentNativeWindow - This allows a system to pass in the parenting
window as a native reference rather than relying on the calling
application to have created the parent window as an nsIWidget. This
value will be ignored (should be nsnull) if an nsIWidget is passed in to
the parentWidget parameter. One of the two parameters however must be
passed.
@param parentWidget - This allows a system to pass in the parenting widget.
This allows some objects to optimize themselves and rely on the view
system for event flow rather than creating numerous native windows. If
one of these is not available, nsnull should be passed and a
valid native window should be passed to the parentNativeWindow parameter.
@param x - This is the x co-ordinate relative to the parent to place the
window.
@param y - This is the y co-ordinate relative to the parent to place the
window.
@param cx - This is the width for the window to be.
@param cy - This is the height for the window to be.
@return NS_OK - Window Init succeeded without a problem.
NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED - Call was unexpected at this time. Most likely
due to you calling it after create() has been called.
NS_ERROR_INVALID_ARG - controls that require either a parentNativeWindow
or a parentWidget may return invalid arg when they do not
receive what they are needing.
