Summary [Qt] Text layout is broken on Symbian
Viatcheslav Ostapenko
Reported 2011-03-09 12:43:11 PST
Load any page that has text on Symbian device and text is not rendered. Appeared to be compiler implementation difference. RVCT compiler treats bitfields as unsigned by default and because of this in RenderBlock:lineHeight comparison "m_lineHeight == -1" is always false . There are number of other places in webkit where integers in bitfields are assumed signed (most compilers have this default). By quote from C++(2003) standard section 9.6/3 : “It is implementation-defined whether a plain (neither explicitly signed nor unsigned) char, short, int or long bit-field is signed or unsigned”.

CCing Nick, Daniel and Kwang as the "RVCT interest group" to make sure that they evaluate if a similar change is needed for their ports.
