[webkit-gtk] Fwd: webview failed to be transparent

[Jianhua Shao]

I build webkitgtk 1.9.92 by below configuration
./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-accelerated-compositing
--enable-fast-mobile-scrolling --enable-jit --disable-webkit2
--disable-plugin-process --disable-gtk-doc-html --with-gtk=2.0
--with-acceleration-backend=opengl

After that, I write a simple app to make the content of webview transparent
by calling webkit_web_view_set_transparent(). But it failed.
I tryied version 1.11.5, it also does not work.
The same app source code works in a old version of gtk-webkit, AFAIK, it
was about gtk-webkit 1.3.

Why I want to a build a new version of gtk-webkit, is to use the
compositing accelerating feature.

Anyone know something about this problem?

The test code is here:
