Bug 206069 – [GTK] compilation breaks if POINTER_LOCK is not enabled

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: INVALID
• Component: WebKitGTK

[Víctor M. Jáquez L.]

If POINT_LOCK is not enabled at configuration time, compilation breaks with

/opt/webkit/WebKit/Source/WebKit/UIProcess/API/gtk/WebKitWebViewBase.cpp:1886:26: error: no member named 'didAllowPointerLock' in 'WebKit::WebPageProxy'
        priv->pageProxy->didAllowPointerLock();
        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~  ^
/opt/webkit/WebKit/Source/WebKit/UIProcess/API/gtk/WebKitWebViewBase.cpp:1891:22: error: no member named 'didDenyPointerLock' in 'WebKit::WebPageProxy'
    priv->pageProxy->didDenyPointerLock();

Thanks for the patch. If this patch contains new public API please make sure it follows the guidelines for new WebKit2 GTK+ API. See http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/WebKitGTK/AddingNewWebKit2API

The POINTER_LOCK feature is intended to always be enabled for
the GTK port. It is also a private option, which means that it
must not be manually set when configuring a build — it's not
supported :)

The relevant bits:

  Source/cmake/WebKitFeatures.cmake
  183:    WEBKIT_OPTION_DEFINE(ENABLE_POINTER_LOCK "Toggle pointer lock support" PRIVATE OFF)

  Source/cmake/OptionsGTK.cmake
  166:WEBKIT_OPTION_DEFAULT_PORT_VALUE(ENABLE_POINTER_LOCK PRIVATE ON)

I think this patch should not be needed, because POINTER_LOCK
is enabled automatically.

Out of curiosity… how did you reach this build problem? I suspect
that maybe there was a stale “CMakeCache.txt” in a build directory
manually configured some weeks ago before POINTER_LOCK was implemented
in the GTK port, and trying to reuse that build directory did not
regenerate the cache file (but I am just doing a wild guess here).

Exactly.

Indeed.

I pulled and compiled. It failed. Then I just ran the cmake command again in my old build directory and still failed. So I looked for the causes (forgetting completely the build system).

Today I've removed the build directory and built all again and master compiles ok. Marking as invalid. Thanks!
