Bug 178263 – [WPE][GTK] Provide an implementation of PAL::logLevelString()

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WPE WebKit

[Adrian Perez]

The debug builds of the WPE and GTK+ port are currently broken due the
“PAL::logLevelString” symbol being missing. For example:

   https://build.webkit.org/builders/GTK%20Linux%2064-bit%20Debug%20(Build)/builds/5976/steps/compile-webkit/logs/stdio

We need to provide an implementation for it.

ASCIILiteral("NotYetImplemented,") may be more appropriate here

I think it should be just String() because we return String, not const String&

ASCIILiteral does not have an overloadded “+” with the RHS being a char*.
We can use the following, at the cost of having one more temporary:

   return ASCIILiteral("NotYetImplemented,") + String(logEnv);

I guess the extra temporary is okay and not a big deal.

Sure, I'll change this and re-upload. Probably later on we would also
want to change “Source/WebCore/platform/unix/LoggingUnix.cpp” and
“Source/WebKit/Platform/unix/LoggingUnix.cpp” to use “return String()”.

Oh, indeed. Looks like the next approach is better:

    makeString("NotYetImplemented,", logEnv);

Updated to use the WEBKIT_DEBUG environment variable, as
per discussion with Konstantin on IRC, it seems better to have a single
variable control logging instead of having to remember to set different
ones.

Not sure about this. I think it only adds extra noise.

As you can now build release with logging enabled by simple setting on your environment CXXFLAGS="-DLOG_DISABLED=0" (I do that)

I was even looking forward to do this by default on developer builds at bug 177459

r=me due to the urgency of this (build currently broken).
Please open a new bug (or don't close this one) to address the remaining comments

I have filed bug #178276 as follow-up to try to unify and improve the
three logLevelString() functions.
