Bug 210620 – Add a new 'limitNavigationsToAppBoundDomains' property to WKWebViewConfiguration

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

[Brent Fulgham]

Update WKWebViewConfiguration, APIPageConfiguration, and WebPageProxy with a new flag indicating that the Developer would like to limit navigations of this web view to the set of app-bound domains specified in the Info.plist for the application.

I think this looks good.

Seems odd that setting one configuration property has the side effect of changing another one. If these two properties are mutually exclusive, should have a single enum property instead with possible values of `ignoresAppBoundDomains` and `limitsToAppBoundDomains`?

One is internal SPI that is used to gate several things. I just wanted to make sure that when the SPI was used, this new flag wasn't left in an inconsistent state.

But this just changes the value reflected by the API, not how it's enforced (but maybe that's for a follow-up). Anyway, I'd be in favor of not changing a value set by the API/SPI client but just documenting what the behavior is when there is a conflict between the two configuration settings.

Reopening because I realized the setter wasn't correct.

I'll land a follow-up fix addressing that.
