Consider to drop ewk_view_tiled from WebKit1/Efl
by Ryuan Choi 13 Dec '13

13 Dec '13

Hello, While we focused webkit2/efl, we didn't use ewk_view_tiled very long time. There are many bugs and we don't have plan to fix them. (Tizen 1.0 has some fixes but we didn't take care of them) Indeed, we can use WebCore's TiledBackingStore with ewk_view_single and it looks more stable. So, If nobody object to drop ewk_view_tiled, I'd like to remove ewk_view_tiled from trunk. Best Regards, Ryuan Choi +------------------------------------------------------------------------ Listen and listen and listen -----------------------+

Fwd: [E-devel] EFL 1.8 Release
by ryuan Choi 02 Dec '13

02 Dec '13

Hello, webkit-efl folks. FYI, EFL 1.8 was released. EFL 1.8 looks quite different from previous EFL versions. I think that it's time to start to stabilize webkit/efl on EFL 1.8. What do you think about bumping EFL libraries? I already compiled and it works fine to build webkit on EFL 1.8 now. I will check any regression in layout-test, tomorrow. Best Regards, Ryuan Choi ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Carsten Haitzler <raster(a)rasterman.com> Date: 2013/12/1 Subject: [E-devel] EFL 1.8 Release To: e <enlightenment-devel(a)lists.sourceforge.net>, e-users < enlightenment-users(a)lists.sourceforge.net>, enlightenment-announce(a)lists.sourceforge.net, enlightenment-intl(a)lists.sourceforge.net = EFL 1.8 is Out = We are pleased to announce that **EFL** and **Elementary** 1.8 are now out and available for download. Also **Emotion Generic Players** and **Evas Generic Loaders** are available too. == Download == http://download.enlightenment.org/rel/libs/efl/efl-1.8.0.tar.gz http://download.enlightenment.org/rel/libs/elementary/elementary-1.8.0.tar.… http://download.enlightenment.org/rel/libs/emotion_generic_players/emotion_… http://download.enlightenment.org/rel/libs/evas_generic_loaders/evas_generi… ---- = What's New = Many major things have happened to EFL in the past year since EFL 1.7 first came out. The usual has been done in fixing bugs, optimizing speed and memory footprint, and much much more. These are just some hilights of what has been done since 1.7, so don't take this as a complete list. Take a look at the NEWS files for more expansive information if you want that. == Merged EFL tree == We have merged **Ecore**, **Edje**, **Eet**, **Eeze**, **Efreet**, **Eina**, **Eio**, **Embryo**, **Emotion**, **Ethumb**, **Evas** and **Evil** into a single **EFL** package (as you can see above these are no longer there, but inside the EFL distribution). We also added in **Eldbus**, **EPhysics**, and **Escape**. **Eldbus** a replacement for **E_dbus**, which is still able to be built in it's 1.7 form but will no longer be updated or maintained, but still functions against EFL 1.8 if you depend on it. **EPhysics** is a new library that glues in the Bullet physics engine into EFL to allow you to make use of an entire physics engine easily and simply in your creations. **Edje** also makes use of this allowing your themes to use it too. == New Theme for Elementary == **Elementary** now has the same dark look at Enlightenment 0.7 debuted with. It looks far sleeker and more consistent now. This theme also contains all the theme elements for Enlightenment too, unifying themes into a single entity now. == Office document loading for Generic Loaders == **Evas Generic Loaders** now can harness Libreoffice to generate thumbnails for common office document formats. == Wayland support majorly improved == **EFL** now has fairly complete support for everything in Wayland 1.3. As a client it does most things right and is certainly usable now for day to day usage. == Async rendering in Evas == Software rendering in Evas now works asynchronously by default. That means that while your app is doing application logic in your main-loop a background thread is also handling rendering for Evas. This should reduce frame-drops and stutters allowing you to make use of more CPU cores as well. == Object model and safety == Inside of EFL a new Object model is being created, called Eo. This starts to unify the ad-hoc object systems EFL has had and begins a journey on the way to EFL 2.0, providing interfaces, multiple-inheritance, unified callback prototypes, introspection and weak and strong references among other things. Currently Eo is not considered Stable as an API, but functions solidly. It also adds benefits of removing direct pointer access to existing EFL objects and puts them behind a table indirection which should remove any crashes when it comes to accessing invalid object handles. Object pointers are no longer real pointers, but are IDs in a table. For compatibility we place these new IDs into the old object pointers. == Audio support == Ecore Audio is now there. Only with an Eo API, so currently unstable (API-wise), but working solidly. It is used by Edje now to provide the ability for theme files to have sound effects. ---- = Building and Dependencies = If you have an existing EFL or Elementary install, you may wish to delete its header files and libraries before compiling and installing to avoid possible conflicts during compilation. If you are compiling the above, please compile them in the following order: # efl # elementary # emotion_generic_players # evas_generic_loaders Please refer to the respective README files in each release for a full list of dependencies, explanations on configure flags and other relevant information (Just scroll down to see the README already displayed nicely). * [[ https://phab.enlightenment.org/diffusion/EFL | EFL ]] * [[ https://phab.enlightenment.org/diffusion/ELM | Elementary ]] * [[ https://phab.enlightenment.org/diffusion/EGP | Emotion Generic Players ]] * [[ https://phab.enlightenment.org/diffusion/EGL | Evas Generic Loaders ]] Recommended dependencies are for all of the above are: * bullet * libpng * libjpeg * gstreamer (0.10) (ensure you have all the gstreamer codecs you need/want) * zlib * lua (5.1 or 5.2) * libtiff * openssl * curl * dbus * libc * fontconfig * freetype2 * fribidi * libpulse * libsndfile * libx11 * libxau * libxcomposite * libxdamage * libxdmcp * libxext * libxfixes * libxinerama * libxrandr * libxrender * libxss * libxtst * libxcursor * libxp * libxi (2.2 or newer) * libgl (opengl/glx or opengl-es2/egl) * giflib * util-linux (limbount + libblkid) * systemd / libudev * harfbuzz * systemd * libwebp * vlc (libvlc) * poppler * libraw * libspectre * librsvg It is suggested you add the following options when building EFL to get a better experience: --enable-xinput22 \ --enable-multisense \ --enable-systemd \ --enable-image-loader-webp \ --enable-harfbuzz On linux to get framebuffer support you may want to also do: --enable-fb --disable-tslib If you want wayland support also add: --enable-wayland At runtime if you want thumbnailing for DOC/PPT/XLS etc. files also provide: * libreoffice -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) raster(a)rasterman.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
