API layer for GTK port in Web kit
by Namaz 21 Aug '07

21 Aug '07

Hi All, There is an API layer in WebKit/Gtk folder (although it is not used by GdkLauncher presently). It provides the GObject interfaces for WebKitGtkFrame, WebKitGtkPage, etc. Great! + Any idea, what are all the advantages of using these kind of GObjects instead of C++ class interfaces (Frame, Page classes). + And what classes are going to be added in future into this API layer as GObjects. Best reagards, Namaz -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/API-layer-for-GTK-port-in-Web-kit-tf4260315.html#a121… Sent from the Webkit mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Jeff, I can't give you any advice on how to use WebKit.dll on windows. I was able to spot your compiler error because I have some experience with that particular compiler error on windows. Someone else on the webkit-dev list might be able to help you.

The windows headers define min and max as preprocessor macros unless NOMINMAX is defined before they are included. Having min and max defined as macros will cause the code in JSCore/wtf/Vector.h to not compile.

Assistance
by David den Boer 19 Aug '07

19 Aug '07

So I want to take a dip into the wekit render code for the first time, mostly for my own knowledge, and also to fix the bug below : That is a div with a border-radius and a drop shadow, and it does not work properly. There is another border-radius bug I found with background colors too, and I feel that they are close to the same thing. Can someone point me to the correct area of code to start investigating? Thanks, David.

identifying a unique iPhone?
by Scott 18 Aug '07

18 Aug '07

Hopefully this is the proper list to post to: I am writing an iPhone web application, and know how to tell that I am talking to an iPhone, but is there a way to uniquely identify a specific iPhone? For example, some header or something I can get with either server side or browser side code and store on the server side so in the future I know which iPhone this is? I know I can implement a cookie style log-in system, but I was hoping for some value I can just get and use. Thanks, Scott

Qt/Win32 build environment
by Artem Ananiev 17 Aug '07

17 Aug '07

Hi, all, looking at the recent WebKit changes, I noticed some activity about Qt/Win32 platform implementation. Some time ago I tried to build it myself using cygwin environment, but with no success, mostly because of cygwin paths and missing the corresponding QMAKESPECS in the free version of Qt 4.3.0 The question is what environment is now supposed for Qt/Win32 build? MS VC++ 2005 (like the current Win32 build) or QMake/Win32 (similar to Qt/Linux)? Thanks, Artem

Small question about versioning
by Mike Hommey 17 Aug '07

17 Aug '07

Hi, When a change like [1] occurs, does it mean the current tree is "released" as version 523.2 or that the previous revision was the "release" of 523.1 ? Mike 1. http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-webkit/upstream.git;a=commitdiff;h=5f89c9a60be…

DeprecatedChar and UChar32
by Artem Ananiev 16 Aug '07

16 Aug '07

Hi, all, DeprecatedChar::lower() method contain the following statement: return c <= 0x7F ? tolower(c) : u_tolower(c); 'c' is a private field of DeprecatedChar of type unsigned short, return type of the method is DeprecatedChar. The problem here is that u_tolower(c) return type is UChar32 which is 32bit on Windows platform, so conversion from UChar32 to DeprecatedChar is not trivial. The corresponding compiler error is: In file included from ../../../WebCore/dom/Node.h:29, from ../../../WebCore/dom/EventTargetNode.h:28, from ../../../WebCore/dom/ContainerNode.h:29, from ../../../WebCore/dom/Attr.h:28, from ../../../WebCore/bindings/js/JSAttrCustom.cpp:32: ../../../WebCore/platform/DeprecatedString.h: In member function `WebCore::DeprecatedChar WebCore::DeprecatedChar::lower() const': ../../../WebCore/platform/DeprecatedString.h:136: error: conversion from `long int' to `WebCore::DeprecatedChar' is ambiguous ../../../WebCore/platform/DeprecatedString.h:108: note: candidates are: WebCore::DeprecatedChar::DeprecatedChar(unsigned int) ../../../WebCore/platform/DeprecatedString.h:112: note: WebCore::DeprecatedChar::DeprecatedChar(int) ../../../WebCore/platform/DeprecatedString.h:104: note: WebCore::DeprecatedChar::DeprecatedChar(short unsigned int) ../../../WebCore/platform/DeprecatedString.h:100: note: WebCore::DeprecatedChar::DeprecatedChar(short int) ../../../WebCore/platform/DeprecatedString.h:96: note: WebCore::DeprecatedChar::DeprecatedChar(unsigned char) ../../../WebCore/platform/DeprecatedString.h:92: note: WebCore::DeprecatedChar::DeprecatedChar(char) - The same problem is with DeprecatedChar::upper() method. Is it a bug in WebKit code? Should an explicit cast be added to the methods? Thanks, Artem

Security and Policy Decision Points
by Stan Switzer 16 Aug '07

16 Aug '07

I'm checking to be sure we've considered all of the important security and policy decision points in WebKit for Adobe AIR. The ones that seem most obvious are: ScriptInterpreter::isSafeScript Window::isSafeScript FrameLoaderClient::dispatchDecidePolicyForMIMEType FrameLoaderClient::dispatchDecidePolicyForNewWindowAction FrameLoaderClient::dispatchDecidePolicyForNavigationAction FrameLoaderClient::shouldGoToHistoryItem FrameLoaderClient::representationExistsForURLScheme FrameLoaderClient::canHandleRequest FrameLoaderClient::canShowMIMEType FrameLoader::canLoad FrameLoader::shouldHideReferrer Is there anything important that I've missed? Thanks, Stan Switzer Adobe Systems

Some .strip files are not generated anymore
by Artem Ananiev 15 Aug '07

15 Aug '07

Hi, all, in some of the recent WebKit changes in WebCore.pro I see the following diffs: -cssprops.commands = cp ${QMAKE_FILE_NAME} tmp && cd tmp && sh $$PWD/css/makeprop && rm ${QMAKE_FILE_BASE}.strip ${QMAKE_FILE_BASE}.in ${QMAKE_FILE_BASE}.gperf +cssprops.commands = $(COPY_FILE) ${QMAKE_FILE_NAME} tmp && cd tmp && perl $$PWD/css/makeprop.pl && $(DEL_FILE) ${QMAKE_FILE_BASE}.strip ${QMAKE_FILE_BASE}.in ${QMAKE_FILE_BASE}.gperf In a few words this means that `makeprop` shell script is changed/replaced with `makeprop.pl' perl one. One of the first lines in the old script generated the corresponding .strip file which was later removed with 'rm ${QMAKE_FILE_BASE}.strip'. The new perl script doesn't use this file, so while trying to remove it with 'rm' I get an error. This error occurs twice: for CSSValueKeywords.strip and CSSPropertyNames.strip. Is it a problem with my workspace? Thanks, Artem
