[webkit-dev] SVG access for native application

2011-05-28 Thread Saba Taseer



I am building a graphics application and want to use SVG for drawing curves and 
ellipses. As I am short of time, I dont want to implement SVG, or communicate 
to the underlying graphics hardware on any platform. I want to use SVG library 
in webkit for my native graphics app but I cant find a place to hook in my 
code. Is it possible to access SVG library in webkit from my native app? If yes 
how can I use it. 
Regards,
Saba Taseer

[webkit-dev] EWS guts about to change

2011-05-28 Thread Adam Barth
If you don't run an EWS bot, you can ignore this message.

I'm about to land a patch
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55585 that swaps out the
guts of all the EWS bots with the new guts we're using for the
cr-linux bot.  The new guts should be faster and will allow us to run
tests.  Hopefully everything should go smoothly and you won't notice
anything change, but if something strange happens, that's probably the
cause.  Feel free to find me on IRC on email if you'd like help
troubleshooting any issues.

Thanks!

Re: [webkit-dev] EWS guts about to change

2011-05-28 Thread Eric Seidel
Related:

We swapped out the guts of Tools/EWSTools/start-queue.sh a few weeks back.
 If you run an EWS bot and haven't restarted it manually in a while, now
would be a good time to.  start-queue.sh makes the EWS robust against python
changes, but when we change start-queue.sh bots require manual restarts.
 start-queue.sh is now runs a watchdog timer and is robust against EWS hangs
after the latest round of changes.

[webkit-dev] Do we have a style preference about const member functions?

2011-05-28 Thread Geoffrey Garen
This came up in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59604.

My personal preference is against const member functions because they force 
many error-prone code changes: introducing a const forces the transitive 
closure of all potential callees to change their signatures recursively, and if 
you get this wrong in the case of a virtual function, you introduce a very 
subtle set of bugs.

I don't see much upside to const member functions because they're just an 
unenforced convention: sub-object and mutable data members are still 
non-const inside a so-called const function, and you can always const_cast away 
so-called const-ness, as WebKit currently does in 483 places.
