Bug 26340 – [Qt] Build break introduced by r44550

• Component: JavaScriptCore
• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

[Laszlo Gombos]

I found two problems:
 1. JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSONObject.cpp needs to be listed as a LUT_FILE as well
 2. name collision between WebCore/inspector/JSONObject.cpp and the newly created JavaScriptCore/runtime/JSONObject.cpp (all .o's are generated in the same dir for QtWebKit)

I was not sure how to resolve 2. I few ideas:
 - rename one of the JSONObject.cpp (e.g. to InspectorJSONObject.cpp)
 - create JavaScriptCore library first and and link it to WebCore to avoid collision

Will submit patch for 1. (LUT_FILE); this should at least fix the standalone jsc build.

Looks fine. r=me.

Landed as http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/44623.

Based on some discussions on #webkit the proposal to resolve the remaining build break is to rename WebCore/inspector/JSONObject.cpp to InspectorJSONObject.cpp (and change the class name as well).

I don't have all the ports so was unable to verify all builds.

There was a problem with the ChangeLog in the previous patch. 
I don't have all the ports so I am unable to verify all builds.

Did you use svn mv for the file move?

[Joseph Ligman]

Sorry I did not. I can do that, but maybe pfeldman will have some other comments.

Clearing review flag as the patch has landed.

This one uses svn move instead of just add and delete

Now that I look at JSONObject, it is just to similar to ScriptObject. I think it can go, and just make ScriptObject support JSON stringify and creation from a JSON string. Dimitri, Pavel, do you think that would work?

I agree that there is a redundancy here. However, I am not sure that Script* is now exactly what we need, so we might need to tweak them a bit. To reduce the number of the moving parts, I'd suggest that this one is fixed as suggested (via renaming Inspector's one to a more specific name) now. In the meanwhile, I would like to learn more on the new stringify API in WebKit and find a good way of Script*, new JSON.stringify and Chromium's JSON capabilities playing together nicely.

[Dimitri Glazkov (Google)]

I am fine with Pavel's opinion. I kinda like Timothy's suggestion though. Color me ambivalent.

Landed in 44682. Clearning review but leaving the bug open for further discussion around the json classes. Pavel, Timothy, do you prefer a separate bugzilla entry for that?
