[GLib] Developer build with release logs disabled fails

• Component: Platform
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Philippe Normand]

In Internals.cpp we require convertEnumerationToString(PlatformMediaSession::RemoteControlCommandType) but that is guarded by an ifdef in PlatformMediaSession.

This looks adjacent to the issue from bug #226088 — I didn't get to the
bottom of it, but there we run in a multiple definition issue due to the
same method (exactly the same!) being generated from a WebIDL file. Why is
this not a problem here? Is something latent here being hidden as well by
unified builds, I wonder?

[Philippe Normand]

I don't think it's related with unified builds, if you open PlatformMediaSession.h you'll see, not guarded by ifdef:

WEBCORE_EXPORT String convertEnumerationToString(PlatformMediaSession::RemoteControlCommandType);

But in the cpp unit it is currently guarded by an ifdef, hence the link error happening when MEDIA_SESSION is enabled, but release logs are disabled.

It's only related in that I am trying to solve another bug that happens to
result in multiple definitions of this symbol when unified builds are
disabled because my test builds I typically do with logging enabled so
the function was being compiled in my case, too — but that's all.
