The plan was for him to publish the code on GitHub soon.I've put the example up on Github: https://github.com/rschroll/webkitdom. The README could use some work explaining what's going on, but it's late and I'm tired. In short, the master branch shows how things used to work with the old API, and the javascript and extension branches show two ways to get things to work with the new API. The javascript method is a bit simpler, but may not scale (and requires javascript); the extension uses the web extension with IPC over DBus. This latter example isn't working with DOM events, as I can't figure out how to use WebKit.DOM.EventTarget.add_event_listener_with_closure() from Vala. Any help here appreciated. (Michael, though the code doesn't demonstrate it, signaling from the Server back into the UI process is working in this example, despite it not working in your example. Dunno why.)
I haven't looked at the code, but make sure you don't use DBus sync API when communicating the UI and web processes.
I'll try to clean up the explanations a bit. I appreciate any feedback and corrections y'all can give. Thanks, Robert _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list gnome org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
