Subject: [Crosswalk-dev] Tizen camera integration issue on emulator

Hi Alexis, Sakari and Raphael,
The current Crosswalk-Tizen camera integration is platform-specific for PR3. 
The camera driver RPM package being used is not available on emulator, so it 
can't be installed on emulator as reported in XWALK-460 . I have two options:

1.         Building different crosswalk RPMs for PR3 and emulator respectively 
- This definitely will introduce considerable changes to current release work 
involving trybot, buildbot, and etc. But in long term it's inevitable to build 
more RPMs as Crosswalk goes forward. We may need to support Tizen 3.0, Tizen 
IVI, and even SAMSUNG's ARM devices. They are all different platforms for 
Crosswalk as emulator, since essentially they run different Tizen images. I 
don't know whether it's the right timing to do so now.

2.         Decoupling the build time dependency via dlopen - This just requires 
adding some trivial code to load symbols. It looks easier and like a short term 
solution. I am not sure it can be guideline to handle all similar cases. After 
all dlopen may have sandbox limitation. More importantly we need a 
justification for using dlopen. Merely for emulator's sake?
What do you think? If no objection, I will go the way of option 2.

Chen Jie
