Dear Vadim / Kevin,
Please review the fix merged from Chromium webkit to our(JFXwebkit) branch which address the defect logged for JDK-8090035. Tested on Linux(32 and 64 bit) with a test application (attached in JIRA) Origin of the fix taken from https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=349873 Courtesy : fixed by HYPERLINK "mailto:schen...@chromium.org"schen...@chromium.org in chromium and the comments Improve the reliability and accuracy of SVG getTotalLength The existing code for SVG path.getTotalLength had two problems when subdividing curves to estimate length. The subdivision terminated when the straight-line vs curved length was within a fixed limit, regardless of the scale of the curve. The termination condition for infinite loops also failed to stop on infinite loops. This patch fixes both issues. The subdivision threshold now accounts for the magnitude of the values, so that we give more resolution on very small curves and less on very large curves. This is consistent with the actual precision we have in floating point numbers. The infinite loop termination tracks and examines the total number of subdivisions thus far, terminating after 20 (which is more than enough - most curves do no more than 10 subdivisions). We also remove two unused variables and a FIXME that makes little sense and that we won't ever fix. Thanks, Guru
