This is the way.
On a more serious note, there's no reason to keep adding ref-counted
classes to LibWeb now that the majority of classes is GC'd - it only
adds the risk of discovering some cycle down the line, and forces us to
use handles as we can't visit().
This removes a set of complex reference cycles between DOM, layout tree
and browsing context.
It also makes lifetimes much easier to reason about, as the DOM and
layout trees are now free to keep each other alive.
(And BrowsingContextGroup had to come along for the ride as well.)
This solves a number of nasty reference cycles between browsing
contexts, history items, and their documents.
When a new document becomes the active document of a browsing context,
we now notify the old document, allowing it to tear down its layout
tree. In the future, there might be more cleanups we'd like to do here.
With the addition of the 'fetch params' struct, the single ownership
model we had so far falls apart completely.
Additionally, this works nicely for FilteredResponse's internal response
instead of risking a dangling reference.
Replacing the public constructor with a create() function also found a
few instances of a Request being stack-allocated!
This Intrinsics object hangs off of a new HostDefined struct that takes
the place of EnvironmentSettingsObject as the true [[HostDefined]] slot
on JS::Realm objects created by LibWeb.
This gets the intrinsics off of the GlobalObject, Window, similar to the
previous refactor of LibJS to move the intrinsics into the Realm's
[[Intrinics]] internal slot.
A side effect of this change is that we cannot fully initialize a Window
object until the [[HostDefined]] slot has been installed into the realm,
which happens with the creation of the WindowEnvironmentSettingsObject.
As such, any Window usage that has not been funned through a WindowESO
will not have any cached Web prototyped or constructors, and will not
have Window APIs available to javascript code. Currently this seems
limited to usage of Window in the CSS parser, but a subsequent commit
will clean those up to take Realm as well. However, this commit compiles
so let's cut it off here :^).
URL had properly named replacements for protocol(), set_protocol() and
create_with_file_protocol() already. This patch removes these function
and updates all call sites to use the functions named according to the
specification.
See https://url.spec.whatwg.org/#concept-url-scheme
This is used by window.close() programmatically, but of course the user
can also decide to close a top-level browsing context at any time by
closing the tab.
We now implement the browsing context's "set active document" algorithm
from the spec, as well as the "discard" algorithm for browsing contexts
and documents.
Instead of using Core::EventLoop and Core::Timer directly, LibWeb now
goes through a Web::Platform abstraction layer instead.
This will allow us to plug in Qt's event loop (and QTimer) over in
Ladybird, to avoid having to deal with multiple event loops.
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.
The protocol of the origin is used for checking if the a file://
iframe is allowed to be loaded (a document with a file:// origin
can load other files in iframes).
This used to be the case, but was changed in
6e71e400e6, which broke file:// iframes.
This is a continuation of the previous three commits.
Now that create() receives the allocating realm, we can simply forward
that to allocate(), which accounts for the majority of these changes.
Additionally, we can get rid of the realm_from_global_object() in one
place, with one more remaining in VM::throw_completion().
This patch implements the "create a new browsing context" function from
the HTML spec and replaces our existing logic with it.
The big difference is that browsing contexts now initially navigate to
"about:blank" instead of starting out in a strange "empty" state.
This makes it possible for websites to create a new iframe and start
scripting inside it right away, without having to load an URL into it.
BrowsingContext shouldn't be scrolling itself, instead it has to update
the layout (to ensure that we have current document metrics, and then
ask the PageClient nicely to scroll it.
This fixes an issue where BrowsingContext sometimes believed itself to
be scrolled, but OOPWV had a different idea.
This commit moves the regular handling of links to the anchor elements'
activation behavior, and implements a few auxiliary algorithms as
defined by the HTML specification.
Note that certain things such as javascript links, fragments and opening
a new tab are still handled directly in EventHandler, but they have been
moved to handle_mouseup so that it behaves closer to how it would if it
was entirely up-to-spec.
Right now the only functionality supported is getting/setting via JS
and resetting when browsing cross origin.
The HTML Specification (7.11 Browsing the web) also specifies how the
name should be restored from history entries, but we don't have those
yet.
A top level browsing context is a browsing context with no parent
browsing context.
However, we considered a top level browsing context to be a browsing
context with no associated browsing context container.
This ensures that the layout information is current, even when the
scroll request happens immediately upon page load.
This fixes an issue where reloading ACID2 wouldn't scroll down to the
"#top" anchor point.
