Hi Jean-Charles
It's really interesting since our refactoring is based upon a
clear split between what is really (from our point of view)
WebKit, and what is platform+OS dependent (font engine, graphic
context, threads, and so on).
This sounds most interesting. Will the results of this refactoring
appear in the release you mentioned in a previous post?
Sure. We even hope that (some of) them are accepted into the TOT :-)
We will propose a "BAL" directory, including all the abstraction
factories, plus a minimal path to have WebCore/JSCore compile with
BAL. From our point of view, BAL is a replacement of "platform/"
but we'll see where to place it. It could also been seen as a
specific port of WebKit, and thus be included in platform/...
The platform/ directory is already supposed to be a browser
abstraction layer. I'm not sure why a second layer of abstraction
would be necessary. Anything additional that needs to be abstracted
should just be added as new WebCore/platform or JavaScriptCore/wtf
classes.
Regards,
Maciej
