Add Clock, PlatformClockCA, and PlatformClockPOSIX

We should be able to do this without virtual functions.

> Source/WebCore/platform/Clock.cpp:44
> +PassRefPtr<Clock> Clock::create()
> +{
> +#if USE(COREAUDIO)
> +    return adoptRef(new PlatformClockCA());
> +#else
> +    return adoptRef(new PlatformClockPOSIX());
> +#endif
> +}

Would it make sense to move Clock::create to PlatformClockCA.cpp and PlatformClockPOSIX.cpp, respectively?

> Source/WebCore/platform/Clock.h:47
> +    virtual void setCurrentTime(float) = 0;
> +    virtual float currentTime() const = 0;
> +
> +    virtual void setPlayRate(float) = 0;
> +    virtual float playRate() const = 0;
> +
> +    virtual void start() = 0;
> +    virtual void stop() = 0;
> +    virtual bool isRunning() const = 0;

Why virtual functions?  If only one implementation will be linked in at a time, there's no need for virtual functions.

This patch is based on an old version of WebKit.  Can you merge this to top-of-tree so we can see what the patch will look like when landed?

[Adam Barth]

Also, we prefer to have one patch per bug.  If you'd like to land these separately (which I think makes sense) please consider using multiple bugs.

See below. :)

There may be more than one implementation at a time.  We are working on a clock subclass which can synchronize AVFoundation-based media elements, but would still need a CA or POSIX clock to synchronize between QTKit- and AVFoundation-based elements.

Sure thing.  I'll update the title of this bug, obsolete the MediaController patch, and file new bugs for the subsequent patches.

[Jer Noble]

Filed bug #71408 and bug #71410 and marked as depending on this bug.  I'll rebase my changes and get the updated.

[Adam Barth]

Thanks.

After a disasterous use of webkit-patch post-commit, webkit-patch upload is back to save the day...

Sigh.  webkit-patch upload is still broken. (Adds the wrong patch to the wrong bug.)

PlatformClockPOSIX looks fine.  I'm not sure I fully understand the role of m_offset.  I don't know enough about CoreAudio to review that implementation.

> Source/WebCore/platform/posix/PlatformClockPOSIX.cpp:35
> +    return val.tv_sec + (val.tv_usec / 1000000.0f);

I would have named this constant, but I'm not sure that's a big deal.

> Source/WebCore/platform/posix/PlatformClockPOSIX.cpp:43
> +    if (delta.tv_usec < 0) {

Does this need to be a loop?  I'm not sure how much error checking you want to do here.

Sure thing.  The general idea is that: current time = (now - start time) * rate + offset, and the offset gets reset whenever the clock is paused, played, or the rate changes.

I can add that. usecPerSec or similar.

Unless something goes seriously wrong with gettimeofday, this will ever only need to be a single pass.  I could add an ASSERT(delta.tv_usec >= 0) after the if.
