The WebKit tests considers your platform to your definition. It does not mean X11 or Elementary, as per WebKit-EFL it does NOT know what Elementary is. I've explained to you before and your fellow coworker yesterday: just expose the functions pointers (vurtuals) in Ewk_View smart class. In your WebKit TEST you do using a global pointer to a "clipboard" string. This is simple, fast and CLEAN as you are sure about the state, unlinke rea x11l clipboard that 1)would require Xserver to run and 2) could be changed by someone else during the test. Of course you should implement those virtuals in elm_web.c using elm_cnp. > Elementary paste implementation (elm_cnp_selection_get) works > asynchronously returning data using paste callback passed as one of > elm_cnp_selection_get function. > An introduction of nested main loop will help making clipboard in > WebKit-EFL work synchronously (more or less similar mechanism is used in > GTK+ WebKit port), but the main problem is that elementary clipboard does > not return paste callback if selection does not contain any data. Ouch WebKit people, seems you don't learn :-/ While you did spot a real bug of the async selection not returning in the case of an empty clipboard, there should never be such "synchronous" requests. WebKit folks looove to do such broken API, such as the JavaScript alert() that is synchronous in JS but does not need to be like that in C++, yet they force it! Just fill a bug and have them to fix the clipboard to be asynchronous. If possible do patches to that. And inner main loops are broken concept.
