[webkit-dev] Can someone explain function ChromeClient::scroll in WebKit/gtk/WebCoreSupport/ChromeClientGtk.c?

[I Luv Code]

Hi,

Let me share with you whatever little I am aware of.

When you try to scroll, the event first reaches to Glue
layer(webview/webpage) & from there It goes to WebCore inside through
ScrollView & FrameView & then finally it lands up to Chrome::scroll. And
then m_client->scroll calls ChromeClientGTK::scroll. Please let me know if
you want to know anything further details.

#1> delta always signifies how much size you have scrolled  (width & height)
& moveRect means how much area(size) have been scrolled [from this line
gdk_rectangle_intersect(&area, &sourceRect, &moveRect)]

#2>Normally I have seen rectToScroll & clipRect are as same as your default
Viewport area. Say it is 200 px width & delta.width=50
Then moverect.width = 150 (how much rect area is scrolled) & similarly for
height.

Let me know if this brief info was of any help.

Thanks.
