Bug 151085 – Print result of memory sampler more readable

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKit2

[Gyuyoung Kim]

Current memory sampler prints result of memory sample horizontally. It makes us hard to read the result at a glance. To improve readability of the memory sampler result, this patch prints it vertically.

Sure would be nice to do this without String::format. We really want to get rid of it entirely because of the performance and security problems with it. I think we could write something that does the padding a different way:

    appendSpaces(statString, 35 - memoryStats.keys[i].length());
    statString.append(memoryStats.keys[i]);

Then we just have to write that helper function.

Below appendSpaces() works well. However I think we can write this function with better method. Any suggestion ? 

static const char space = ' ';
static void appendSpaces(StringBuilder& key, const int spaceCount)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < spaceCount; ++i)
        key.append(space);
}

No reason for the "const" in "const int".

> Source/WebKit2/Shared/WebMemorySampler.cpp:44
> +    char space[] = " ";

No reason to use a string literal instead of a single character.

> Source/WebKit2/Shared/WebMemorySampler.cpp:46
> +        string.appendLiteral(space);

Could be:

    string.append(' ');
