Hi, I am trying to learn webkit and have downloaded the nightlies and built it and have so far looked through the code for a basic understanding.
Now I would like to make modifications to webkit so that I understand it completely (there by get my hands a little dirty). All I am trying to do is to do minor modifications to a single component of webkit that I could see in evidence when executed. So as a start I tried blocking certain set of URLs/URL in webkit (added functions as part of KURL class) but could not accomplish it without breaking the application. I know this modification has very little meaning but all I am trying to do is learn how things work inside (as it has got a lot to do with Threads,pipes,Pointers,resource loads,platform API, etc., and individual components that form the basis of webkit application). Can anybody provide me the direction as to where I need to concentrate to make this modification? If its a bad idea to start with can somebody suggest me making "any" modification to any module that would help me learn about that particular component or webkit? Any small modifications, say ,disabling the "alert()" function call in JS which would help me learn about JavascriptCore in detail would be a great help. I'm sorry if this mailing list is not the right place to ask such beginners question and I'm sorry for my naivety. Thanks, A.Ajai
