Bug 10470 – The Qt platform needs a KCanvas device

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: SVG

[Nikolas Zimmermann]

Just like quartz/ has it's own kcanvas device, Qt also needs one.

BEWARE: This is meant as a temporary solution. Everything should
be properly integrated into GraphicsContext & friends and kcanvas
should die. The purpose is that I can also work on Linux to do
the kcanvas removal.

Initial patch

Everything in WebKit should be one-class-per-file.  I made a mistake in not doing that when I wrote the original KCanvas Quartz code.  I've never gone back to fix it because it's already slated for death.  In the same sense, it's OK that these are not one-class-per-file as they're temporary, but you should just be aware.

Seems silly to compute the same thing twice:

+        x1 = double(bbox.left()) + (double(gradientStart().x() / 100.0) * double(bbox.width()));
+        y1 = double(bbox.top()) + (double(gradientStart().y() / 100.0) * double(bbox.height()));
+        x2 = double(bbox.left()) + (double(gradientEnd().x() / 100.0)  * double(bbox.width()));
+        y2 = double(bbox.top()) + (double(gradientEnd().y() / 100.0) * double(bbox.height()));

As you're already aware, much of this code violates the WebKit style guidelines.  If you end up having to make other changes, you could consider fixing some of it.

if(, { } on separate lines, * in the wrong place, are all examples of such.

I have a gut feeling that much, much more of this code could be pushed into a more central cross-platform place.

the boundingbox mode related calculations are one example.

The quartz code is going to be redesigned to fill and stroke at once, for a large performance boost on the Mac.  You should continue to keep that in mind as you work with the Qt/cairo code.

Many of these header methods do not need named arguments:

+    virtual void draw(KRenderingDeviceContext *context, const RenderPath *path, KCPaintTargetType type) const;
+    virtual bool setup(KRenderingDeviceContext *context, const RenderObject *object, KCPaintTargetType type) const;
+    virtual void teardown(KRenderingDeviceContext *context, const RenderObject *object, KCPaintTargetType type) const;

KCanvasPath makes me cringe.  I needs to be folded into Path, so as to avoid the virtual method dispatch overhead.

Generally we don't leave things like this in:
+#if 1

Things that don't need {} can omit them.

+                case QPainterPath::LineToElement:
+                {
+                    newPath.lineTo(QPointF(cur.x, cur.y) * transform);
+                    break;
+                }

I'm not actually sure what our style guidelines say about that though, so it's your call.


I'm not sure you want this:

+        //if (!CGContextIsPathEmpty(cgContext)) {

Also, that file needs apple's copyright, since clearly parts of the code were copied from KCanvas Quartz


As I believe you're already aware, we generally use a slightly different form for constructor definitions:
+KRenderingDeviceContextQt::KRenderingDeviceContextQt(QPainter *painter) : m_painter(painter), m_path()

ask me on IRC if you need more info.

Overall the patch looks fine.  Since I think you have another one you're about to post, I will remove the review flag on this instead of r+'ing it.

Actually, given the small copyright issues, I guess I should officially r- it.

Hm, I can't seem to find the copyright violation. You pasted that one-line
snippet from KCanvasClipperQt, which has Apple copyright! Probably you
missed that...

Just redoing a patch which follows WebKit coding style.
Thanks for all the review work, Eric!

Respect WebKit coding style guide.

This looks totally fine.

It looks like you misread the style guidelines and added {} around one-line ifs. :(  We'll have to make sure we add an example to the guide.

"If/else statements — as above, but if there is an else clause, the close brace should go on the same line as the else. Also, one-line if or else clauses should not get braces."

Looks plenty good to land though.
