Hi Owen,
this made me rethink a bit about the whole gecko embedding situation. I
will try to post about it later but the quick summary is... I dropped
gecko-embed and made sugar use gtkmozembed directly. Also, I added the
gtkmozembed bindings to sugar-jhbuild.
The remaining issue is open-uri being basically broken in the bindings,
right? It should be fixable, we can figure it out tomorrow.
Thanks,
Marco
Take a look at the code for the Democracy Player. They have already
solved the open-uri bug in their own code. I don't know if their method
is sound, but whatever they did, it works.
>From MozillaBrowser.pyx:
"Here's the deal on the open-uri callback hack:
GtkMozEmbed doesn't define the open-uri callback correctly. The uri
value is declared as a gpointer, instead of a string. It's not a
problem in C but it doesn't work in Python.
To get around this, we declare a C callback to handle things. Since
this callback is coming straight from the C code, we need to acquire the
python GIL or we'll segfault. Because of this, we can't create any
local python object because they will be DECREFed at the end of the
function -- after we've given back the GIL. To make things less messy,
the C callback invokes OpenUriCallback to do most of the work."
Have you tried it with latest pygobject? (i.e. in your sugar-jhbuild
tree). I remember to have seen a similar issue but now I tried to
reproduce and I couldn't. Anyway please ping me on IRC and we can find a
solution for this.
Marco
