Core Window Interface
The NetSurf core provides an optional API to frontend implementations which allows a number of "standard" window content interfaces to be provided.
The currently available user interfaces are:
- Cookies
- Global history
- Hotlist
- SSL certificate view (obsolete, but used as an example here)
- local history
Although not currently included in future additional user interfaces will be available for the main browser render.
To be clear these are generic implementations of this functionality that any frontend may use. Frontends are free to implement these interfaces in any manner as they see fit, the corewindow interface simply provides a default.
core window API
The API is fairly simple and simply involves passing a callback table and context pointer to the interface element being constructed.
The header that defines the callback interface is netsurf/core_window.h
The callback table contains five function pointer interfaces which the frontend must implement for the core.
-
invalidate invalidate an area of a window
-
update_size Update the limits of the window
-
scroll_visible Scroll the window to make area visible
-
get_window_dimensions Get window viewport dimensions
-
drag_status Inform corewindow owner of drag status
Each callback will be passed the context pointer for the corewindow instance and the relevant additional information necessary to perform the operation.
Each exported user interface element wraps this generic interface with a concrete implementation. For example the SSL certificate viewer is initialised with:
nserror sslcert_viewer_init(struct core_window_callback_table *cw_t,
void *core_window_handle,
struct sslcert_session_data *ssl_d);
This call creates a context which will display and navigate the ssl session data passed. The frontend must service the callbacks from the core to provide the necessary interactions with the frontend windowing system.
These actions should ideally use the standard frontend window processing. So for the GTK frontend when the core calls the invalidate operation it simply marks the area passed as damaged (using gtk_widget_queue_draw_area()) and lets the standard expose event cause the redraw to occur.
If the frontend needs to redraw an area of a window (perhaps an expose event occurred or the window has had an area marked as invalid) it must call the core window API wrappers implementation which will perform the plot operations required to update an area of the window.
e.g in the case of ssl certificate viewer
void sslcert_viewer_redraw(struct sslcert_session_data *ssl_d,
int x, int y, struct rect *clip,
const struct redraw_context *ctx);
would perform the plot operations for that SSL data window.
Usage
The usage pattern that is expected is for a frontend to create a core window implementation that implements the necessary five API in a generic way and allows the frontend to provide the specific specialisation for each of the user interface elements it wishes to use (cookies, SSL viewer etc).
The GTK frontend for example:
has source corewindow.[ch] which implement the five core callbacks using generic GTK operations (invalidate calls gtk_widget_queue_draw_area() etc.) and then provides additional operations on a GTK drawing area object to attach expose event processing, keypress processing etc.
The GTK corewindow (not to be confused with the core window API itself, this is purely the gtk wrapper) is used by ssl_cert.c which creates a nsgtk_crtvrfy_window structure containing the nsgtk_corewindow structure. It attaches actual GTK window handles to this structure and populates elements of nsgtk_corewindow and then calls sslcert_viewer_init() directly.
frontend skeleton
An example core window implementation for a frontend ssl certificate viewer is presented here. This implements the suggested usage above and provides generic corewindow helpers.
