[webkit-dev] Installing Webkit dependencies

We did some research for the GTK+ port and tried to integrate the most important UA string compatibility hacks without making the string too ugly. The code in WebKit/gtk/WebCoreSupport/FrameLoaderClientGtk.cpp documents each UA string element with comments. It's fairly general and is intended to be moved down into WebCore. If you decide to use this code, please submit any fixes through the bug tracker. Hope it helps.

This is not always happening immediately unfortunately, but we currently have merged all changes until two weeks ago into trunk. So saying the number of changes in our tree is growing is IMO not really correcy. We're currently trying to get our Qt 4.4 beta out, and are therefore a bit slow with merging and submitting our changes. But one large change we did (fixing a crash with navigator.plugins and autogenerating the bindings) is now hanging in the review queue for almost 4 weeks. We currently can't afford to wait that long for some fixes to go in. Most of us can't hang our on IRC late every evening neither which seems to be often a requirement to push things forward. As I said earlier, we don't like working outside svn, but with having a deadline to release a product and with WebKit trunk currently moving ahead and implementing new features we didn't really have a choice.

Re: [webkit-dev] Qt's default webkit user agent
You have to be careful when changing the UA as there are sites that do the most absurd checks. For example including applicationVersion could easily trigger WebKit to be detected as another (probably much older) browser -- i believe it is necessary to avoid ever having the string 4. in the UA for example as there are used to be) sites that assume that indexOf(4.) != -1 means the your browser is netscape 4 and supports the layers extension, eg. as done at http://www.sloppycode.net/code-snippets/javascript/web-safe-palette.aspx (This page works unless there's a 4 in the UA version) So at the very least i would be careful about including version info, you also can't remove Mozilla/5.0, WebKit, KHTML, Gecko, or Safari because people look for those substrings (Mozilla/5.0 means you're not IE -- although there's also a more modern version where Firefox means not IE and that breaks at least one site i know of and use *grumble*) All in all i'll just reiterate that changes to the UA flags are *dangerous* and can easily cause sites to break --Oliver On Feb 12, 2008, at 1:38 AM, Benjamin Meyer wrote: As it is today Qt's default user agent (in qwebpage.cpp) is hard coded to: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en) AppleWebKit/523.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Safari/419.3 Qt Seeing as this library will be used inside of many other applications it makes sense to include by default at least the application name/version when they are set.

Re: [webkit-dev] Issues with font rendering on DirectFB build
Hi Mike,
Even I found the same problem. tiny fonts on the FB screen !
I added some prints and noticed that the fontDescription.computedSize() was
1.0 for some reason. !!
so i added the following lines in the constructor of
WebCore/platfrom/graphics/gtk/FontPlatformDataGtk.cpp
*** FontPlatformDataGtk.cpp.org 2008-02-05 13:59:50.0 +0530
--- FontPlatformDataGtk.cpp 2008-02-12 16:29:20.0 +0530
*** FontPlatformData::FontPlatformData(const
*** 47,56
--- 47,64
int fcslant = FC_SLANT_ROMAN;
int fcweight = FC_WEIGHT_NORMAL;
float fcsize = fontDescription.computedSize();
+ if(fontDescription.computedSize() == 1.0)
+ {
+ /*fontDescription.setComputedSize(16.0);*/
+ m_fontDescription.setComputedSize(16.0);
+ fcsize = 16.0;
+ }
+
if (fontDescription.italic())
fcslant = FC_SLANT_ITALIC;
if (fontDescription.bold())
fcweight = FC_WEIGHT_BOLD;
This has temporarily fixed the problem.
I donot know the cause why the fontsize is computed as 1.0 !!

Hi Rachel just got my directfb build working on the latest head.
What I'm seeing is that fonts are scaled down to thin lines. And other
scaling issues.
I'm assuming this is what you may be seeing.
This is only under the directfb/gtk build not the webkit one.
Also I looked over my changes and they are related mainly to not having
X11
installed at all you probably can build without them but you would
crash eventually
in a few places.

Do I need a gtkrc to point at where fonts / styles
are?

Re: [webkit-dev] Issues with font rendering on DirectFB build
Hmm this is a fontconfig issue looks like.
I'll trace it for a bit weird that its only in the directfb build same
fontconfig for X11.
Thanks for the work around.
