[webkit-dev] PSA: JSC::UString will retire, String is excited to meet you

2012-08-29 Thread Benjamin Poulain
Hi WebKit-dev, Some unifying has been done between String and UString, and it will soon be time to remove UString entirely. The benefits of removing UStrings are: -Simpler code. -No need to implement each feature in String and UString -Fewer ref-deref -Smaller binary (about 44kb smaller on Mac x

[webkit-dev] CSS Masking in WebKit

Hi WebKit folks, The CSS WG and SVG WG agreed to work on a CSS Masking specification [1]. Basically the spec aims to specify the behavior of -webkit-mask/-webkit-box-mask on WebKit browsers and SVG Mask/ SVG ClipPath on Firefox. I would like to implement the specification in the next weeks and

Hi Holger, We happily and actively maintain the MIPS port for JSC, and will set up new MIPS buildbot soon. If there are other things that we can help, please let us know. Thanks a lot! Regards, Chao-ying > -Original Message- > From: Holger Hans Peter Freyther [mailto:ze...@selfish.or

Hi All, Before a MIPS buildbot is ready, you can go ahead to change the assembler or any parts of code. We (MIPS) will test new code and submit patches that are required to fix the MIPS JSC build. Don't need to worry about breaking the MIPS build. (I have a cron job that checks out code an

2012-08-29 Thread Maciej Stachowiak
I like the idea of this change. Using key and value makes things more readable at the site of use than a generic first/second. It's unfortunate that it is hard to deploy, but I think it's worth it to work through those challenges. ` -Maciej On Aug 28, 2012, at 3:24 PM, Caio Marcelo de Oliveir

I'm in favour of this change, as WTF::HashMap is not std::map and having the interface be almost like std::map in some ways, but totally unlike it in other ways, is more confusing than a clean break would be. From: webkit-dev-boun...@lists.webkit.org [webk

Hi All, We are working on updating WebKit MIPS support. In particular we have a work in progress LLINT and DFG implementation for MIPS. We already have results (mozilla testsuite, sunspider and v8 benchmarks run reasonably well), but there are still some bugs that need to be fixed before we can s

Hi All, I'd like to inquire about the future of MIPS and SH4 assemblers. A long time ago we had buildbots for MIPS and SH4 platforms (hosted by Holger). But their last builds were at 29th June, machine were stopped, bots were removed from build.webkit.org (2 months before!). Is there anyone int
