[chromium-dev] Burned out trying to do SendWithTimeout

2009-03-12 Thread Avi Drissman
OK, so there's this nifty SendWithTimeout on SyncChannel. Awesome. And RenderViewHost just has to call it, just like it calls Send() today for other calls. This is where things are falling apart for me. For Send(), RenderViewHost calls (via RWH) its Send(), which calls RenderProcessHost's

It is really complicated. I don't think we should work on this now. Let's get the rest of the high priority work out of the way, and then return to this. -Darin On Thu, Mar 12, 2009 at 11:04 AM, Avi Drissman a...@google.com wrote: OK, so there's this nifty SendWithTimeout on SyncChannel.

The only place that calls it in the browser process is BrowserAccessbilityManager, which I'm guessing isn't critical for the ports (it's actually disabled by default on our shipping builds). success = members-render_widget_host_-process()-channel()- SendWithTimeout(msg,

[chromium-dev] [extensions] Design doc: API pattern proposal

2009-03-12 Thread Aaron Boodman
http://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/dev/developers/design-documents/extensions/api-pattern I'm thinking about what the general pattern for the APIs we expose to extensions should be. I've been leaning toward something that is quite a bit of a departure from the style of the DOM and more

One comment regarding synchronous IPC (I presume this is from the extension process to the renderer\browser process): I agree that synchronous IPC is slower, and better to be async when possible. However, if it's used for APIs that aren't called frequently (100 calls/s, as opposed to thousands or

Basically, what I wrote was a quick hack just because I was tired of not seeing where links go, and someone will need to think about harder what exact kinds of behaviors we want. I don't exactly understand how it works on windows, except that the status bubble can slide out of the main window

this seems wrong. surely you can create a top-level window that has no window decorations. then you can just position that however you like. is the problem with managing the z-order? -darin On Thu, Mar 12, 2009 at 2:11 PM, Evan Martin e...@chromium.org wrote: Basically, what I wrote was a

OK. I'm going to do it on the Mac as a child window, so it'll be bound to the parent but still independent in positioning. Sounds like that plan is fine. Thanks, Avi On Thu, Mar 12, 2009 at 5:11 PM, Evan Martin e...@chromium.org wrote: Basically, what I wrote was a quick hack just because I

I see... there has to be a way with window manager hints to make this work :-) Anyways, this isn't the most important thing to worry about now, but it sure is sad to lose out on such a cool feature of Chrome (that the status bar won't obscure what the mouse is over). -Darin On Thu, Mar 12,
