[webkit-dev] How does WebCore Loader work?

[Tau After]

Brady,
Thank you very much for your answer. I can't quite get the "FrameLoadClient is expected to call back to FrameLoader::checkNavigationPolicy() " yet.  guess it will call FrameLoaderClient::startDownload() at last anyway? 

Searching more from the wiki/toturial now :)

Going into details on how the loader works is quite a tall topic that is more about wiki/tutorial webpages than a post to this mailing list.

But to answer your specific question, after FrameLoader calls checkNavigationPolicy() on the FrameLoadClient, the FrameLoadClient is expected to call back to FrameLoader::checkNavigationPolicy() to continue the loading procedure.  


Hopefully that will help you continue your hunt.

Hello,
I'm reading Webkit code from QT4.4 preview (3rdparty/webkit) and is lost in those FrameLoader::load() memebers :(

Could anybody kindly walk me through this part of the code -- what will happen when a load() request is issued? I saw it just stoped at checkNavigationPolicy() and this doesn't seem to trigger any network activity?

Thanks a lot!
