This ports MouseEvent, UIEvent, WheelEvent, and Event to new String.
They all had a dependency to T::create() in
WebDriverConnection::fire_an_event() and therefore had to be ported in
the same commit.
These are currently initialized in a [[gnu::constructor]], which has a
weird initialization order. These constructors are invoked before main()
and, incidentally, before any user-defined default constructors of the
static strings they are initializing.
This will become an issue when these strings are ported to FlyString,
which has a user-defined default constructor. In that scenario, when the
FlyString constructor is executed after the [[gnu::constructor]], the
strings will be "reset" to the empty string.
Instead of relying on a non-standard compiler extension here, let's just
initialize these strings explicitly during main-thread VM creation, as
this now happens in WebContent's main().
Because of interdependencies between DOM::Event and UIEvents::MouseEvent
to template function fire_an_event() in WebDriverConnection.cpp, the
commit: 'LibWeb: Make factory methods of UIEvents::MouseEvent fallible'
have been squashed into this commit.
Note that as of this commit, there aren't any such throwers, and the
call site in Heap::allocate will drop exceptions on the floor. This
commit only serves to change the declaration of the overrides, make sure
they return an empty value, and to propagate OOM errors frm their base
initialize invocations.
This needs to happen before prototype/constructor intitialization can be
made lazy. Otherwise, GC could run during the C++ constructor and try to
collect the object currently being created.
DeprecatedFlyString relies heavily on DeprecatedString's StringImpl, so
let's rename it to A) match the name of DeprecatedString, B) write a new
FlyString class that is tied to String.
Unlike client{X,Y} which is relative to the current viewport, these
offsets are relative to the left edge of the document (i.e they take
scroll offset into account).
...and also for hit testing, which is involved in most of them.
Much of this is temporary conversions and other awkwardness, which
should resolve itself as the rest of LibWeb is converted to these new
types. Hopefully. :thousandyakstare:
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
The intent is to use these to autogenerate prototype declarations for
Window and WorkerGlobalScope classes.
And the spec links are just nice to have :^)
Unlike ensure_web_prototype<T>(), the cached version doesn't require the
prototype type to be fully formed, so we can use it without including
the FooPrototype.h header. It's also a bit less verbose. :^)
This is a monster patch that turns all EventTargets into GC-allocated
PlatformObjects. Their C++ wrapper classes are removed, and the LibJS
garbage collector is now responsible for their lifetimes.
There's a fair amount of hacks and band-aids in this patch, and we'll
have a lot of cleanup to do after this.
There were two things preventing this from working right:
- UIEvents::UIEvent::create() was actually just DOM::Event::create()
- We didn't return the right JavaScript wrapper type for UIEvent
