Bug 16371 – Implement additional mouse cursors for Gtk

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKitGTK

[Christian Dywan]

There are several mouse cursors missing, ie. currently a default pointer is used for all unsupported cursors. The missing cursors that are not guaranteed to be available should have hardcoded defaults and allow for custom themed replacements.

Initial patch with several new cursors

This patch implements vertical-text, context-menu, copy, alias, zoom-in and zoom-out. These names are overridable by cursor themes.

The hardcoded cursor images are taken from [1], so I added the original author to the copyright line. I hope that is appropriate.

That can just be a TODO rather than a FIXME. The function should have a camelCase name since this is WebCore code. (The names of the moz_ variables don't matter so much, you can leave them as-is.)

This function is missing a 'return c;'

Could you write a ChangeLog entry, including a mention of where the code was borrowed from?

Thanks!

Will remove the GLib use from the header file, remove the deprecated unref calls, fix a minor formatting issue (space missing in if statement), and constify fg and bg before landing.

Thanks!
