Apologies if this is the wrong place for this sort of discussion. I
have been developing an application using WebKit/GTK+, and I noticed
that the GTK+ wrapper does not contain a means to get the return value
from a javascript call (from C).
void webkit_web_view_execute_script(WebKitWebView* webView, const
gchar* script);
exists, but is really a fire and forget. I could find nothing else,
so I wrote a quick extension:
gchar* webkit_web_view_execute_script_with_retval(WebKitWebView*
webView, const gchar* script)
{
if(!WEBKIT_IS_WEB_VIEW(webView)) return NULL;
if(!script) return NULL;
if (FrameLoader* loader = core(webView)->mainFrame()->loader())
{
JSValue* retval = loader-
>executeScript(String::fromUTF8(script), true);
if(retval)
{
UString retstring = retval->getString();
if(retstring == NULL) return NULL;
gchar* gretval = g_utf16_to_utf8((gunichar2*) retstring.data(),
retstring.size(),
NULL,
NULL,
NULL);
return gretval;
}
}
return NULL;
}
Not at all patch worthy, but it works, and now I can call into
javascript and get return values - I am wondering if there are any
plans to implement something like this (but well written) in the future?
Also, I have not been able to get text shadows working on my WebKit/GTK
+, but a recent article on Ars suggests it is now working - I am using
pango - something else I need to do?
Thanks,
Sean
