Do you mean history or the BackForwardList?
I'm talking only about WebKitBackForwardList, which is completely
separate from browser history.
Because if you are talking about the browsing history cleanup - this
is ugly
solution. Why should I destroy the view (browser) just to clear
browsing
history?
Is there another sane solution?
Both FF and IE have an ability to clear the browsing history and I
doubt they are destroying
anything when they do it.
Browsers implement their own history functionality, separate from
WebKitBackForwardList. For example, in Epiphany, history is saved in an
SQLite database, and clearing the history is accomplished by deleting
the database file and associated journaling file. Although there's no
way to clear the back/forward list, that's not really any problem,
because the back/forward list is only kept around as long as its web
view exists.
Hope that helps,
Michael
