Description Joe Thomas 2012-03-12 15:12:58 PDT
This refactoring is basically to avoid the use of virtual interface. Otherwise virtual interface has to be added for avoiding the layering violation.

Looks generally good, a few comments.

> Source/WebCore/css/LengthFunctions.h:3
> +/*

> + *

Since this is copy code you should maintain the original license and copyrights from Length.h and just add a new (c) line.

> Source/WebCore/css/LengthFunctions.h:36
> +int calculateValue(Length, int maxValue, bool roundPercentages = false);
> +int calculateMinValue(Length, int maxValue, bool roundPercentages = false);
> +float calculateFloatValue(Length, float maxValue);
> +float calculateFloatValue(Length, int maxValue);

It would be better to put everything to header as the current implementations are inlined in Length.h. Making them regular functions might not affect performance but it would be safer to do that change separately.

Less generic names would be nice though I don't have good suggestions.

calculateMinValue, minValue, maxValue should be renamed with "minimum" and "maximum"

While sorting Xcode Project file after adding LengthFunctions.h using sort-Xcode-project-file script, it also sorted some of the previously misplaced entries and they are included in this patch. Should I create a separate patch for that?

Could you please address Antti's comment:
"Less generic names would be nice though I don't have good suggestions." before committing this code?
These names are too generic to sit in the WebCore namespace in my opinion.

Ultimately I think that these functions belong in a new class eg. CSSLength, that has an instance of platform/Length used for storage.

I could not think of any better names, so I just renamed 'min' and 'max' to 'minimum' and 'maximum' as per Antti's suggestion.

How about 'calculateLengthValue' & 'calculateLengthMinimumValue' OR 'calculateCSSLengthValue' & 'calculateCSSLengthMinimumValue'? I think it is getting too lengthy. 

Do you have any other better names?
Comment 12 Antti Koivisto 2012-03-15 16:40:28 PDT
It you look at the full function signature it is not a very generic at all (compare to operator== in global namespace). If you have suggestions please present them. 

Adding a pointless class is as suggested by Luke is clearly not a good option.
Comment 13 Antti Koivisto 2012-03-15 16:47:17 PDT
My "generic name" comment was about the fact that there is no indication what sort of value is being calculated. The current code has the same problem.

I'm ok with calculateMinimumLength / calculateLength etc (the word "value" is almost meaningless here), but a better alternative might be to introduce a C++ namespace around these static functions, and then make the names even more generic.

I would suggest we land this as-is and bikeshed later. Hyatt ok'd this already as well. Kling?

I think it is failed due to merge-conflict. I will do a rebase and submit the patch.

Bug 81439 is created to sort the previously misplaced entries in Xcode project
Comment 23 Antti Koivisto 2012-03-17 05:08:47 PDT
Hmm, valueForLength(), miminumValueForLength(), floatValueForLength() might be better names. They drop the superfluous "calculate" in favor of mentioning the type operated on. What do you think?

Thanks for the suggestion. These names are definitely better. I will create another patch.
