[webkit-dev] API layer for GTK port in Web kit
Hi All, There is an API layer in WebKit/Gtk folder (although it is not used by GdkLauncher presently). It provides the GObject interfaces for WebKitGtkFrame, WebKitGtkPage, etc. Great! + Any idea, what are all the advantages of using these kind of GObjects instead of C++ class interfaces (Frame, Page classes). + And what classes are going to be added in future into this API layer as GObjects.

Re: [webkit-dev] Issue with calling javascript function from a external thread
Thanks for your answer but unfortunately the problem is deeper than I though. I think that it is related to the way I call back javascript. You can find the related class attached with this email. Ivy calls back the OnMessage method that just initialises the arguments to be given to the javascript method (stored in m_scriptCb) and set the timer to be used by the main thread as you suggested. The calling is done in the fired() methods. Now e.g. if I have a page that contains : img id=test src=... / When I am calling back and I try to modify it through document.getElementById(test) I get an exception (msg: null value) but modifying its properties could yet work. I have found that defining a global variable in javascript to keep the result of document.getElementById(test) solve the problem of the exception but the layout may not be updated (depending on whether the image is in a div or not ...). I am really at a loss to find out the common denominator between the different bugs. I don't think it is a race condition as I have done simple testing with a unique call from Ivy. If someone has an idea or a better way to do the calling, I am ready to test and change the class.

If you want to perform external processing on a secondary thread, that's OK, but any calls into the DOM will have to happen on the main thread.

Ivy is a light-weigh publish/subscribe protocol. It is based on callback functions that you call when a regExp is seen on the bus. My main problem is that the thread that calls back functions is the thread that handles incoming transmissions, that is not one of Webkit threads. As my problem seems close to what is done in XMLHttpRequest, I have tried mecanisms used by that class and particularly reusing the code from JSAbstractEventListener::handleEvent to call my object. The callback seems to work but developing a javascript application on top of that lead me to discover that some part of javascript are not working : for example, accessing some (not all) element with document.getElementById(...) does return null in the callback (but works in the Webkit threads) even though I could access it directly in C++ through Document::getElementById. I do not know much about what I have done wrong but I am eager to do the necessary debugging and testing. Maybe also my method is not the best so if someone has a better idea, he is more than welcome.

[webkit-dev] Adding custom module to the WebkitQt build files?
Hi All, I am trying to add a custom helloworld module to be compiled with the WebKitQt build for the gdk build. I have tried modifying WebKit.pro to this add this line: gdk-port:SUBDIRS += ../../WebKitQt/helloworld ../../WebKitQt/helloworld/helloworld.pro But then it gives this error: Error processing project file: /.../XXX/project/WebKit.pro Can someone point me some doc which explains the build system as well as a simple 'how-to' to add custom modules.

The bug/patch you're referring to make it possible to select and copy the HTTP headers shown when you click on a resource in the Network Panel.

Hi- There's not currently a way to copy from the Network panel of the Inspector, though this is something we'd definitely like to support.

[webkit-dev] Embedded WebView autoscroll
I need help! What I'm trying to do is very similar to the Message Pane in the Apple Mail application, ie. put a WebView together with one other view into a NSScrollView. In the case of Apple Mail, the WebView displays HTML messages, the other view displays the message headers, and a single set of scrollbars make them scroll both at the same time. To do so, I have a TilingView that contains a NSBoxView and a WebView. The WebView doesn't have scrollbars: instead, it adjusts its size to the size of the HTML document. The TilingView listens to NSViewFrameDidChangeNotification, adjusts its size to the size of the WebView, makes additional space for the NSBoxView, and is included into a NSScrollView. All that works fine as long as I'm using the scrollbars of my NSScrollView: the NSBoxView and the WebView scroll together and allow to see the entire document, and the scrollbars are shown/hidden correctly if the NSScrollView is large enough to display both views simultaneously. The problem is: auto-scroll does not work. When I click into the WebView, the mouseDown event is captured and handled by the WebView, and is not propagated up the view hierarchy into my NSScrollView. What can I do to make the TilingView auto-scroll inside the NSScrollView? --- Here are more details to put you on track maybe... The view hierarchy of my application, as displayed by F-Script, is: WebHTMLView WebClipView WebDynamicScrollBarsView WebFrameView WebView MyTilingView NSClipView NSScrollView MyComposedView etc... The view hierarchy of Apple Mail (when displaying an HTML mail) is: MessageWebHTMLView WebClipView WebDynamicScrollBarsView WebFrameView MessageWebView TilingView NSClipView NSScrollView ColorBackgroundView etc... How does Apple Mail manage to have the WebView create and use their own subclass of WebHTMLView (the MessageWebHTMLView) instead of a standard WebHTMLView?
