This abstraction will help us to support multiple IPC transport
mechanisms going forward. For now, we only have a TransportSocket that
implements the same behavior we previously had, using Unix Sockets for
IPC.
Now that we use libcurl, there's no reason to keep Qt networking around.
Further, it doesn't support all features we need anyways, such as non-
buffered request handling for SSE.
The AppKit Application class is responsible for launching all helper
processes. This had to be moved to a .cpp file because we were unable to
include headers with the Protocol namespace in .mm files, as they would
conflict with the Protocol interface defined by Apple.
Now that this namespace has been renamed to Requests, we can remove this
workaround.
Currently, if we want to add a new e.g. WebContent command line option,
we have to add it to all of Qt, AppKit, and headless-browser. (Or worse,
we only add it to one of these, and we have feature disparity).
To prevent this, this moves command line flags to WebView::Application.
The flags are assigned to ChromeOptions and WebContentOptions structs.
Each chrome can still add its platform-specific options; for example,
the Qt chrome has a flag to enable Qt networking.
There should be no behavior change here, other than that AppKit will now
support command line flags that were previously only supported by Qt.
This is the same behavior as RequestServer, with the added benefit that
we know how to gracefully reconnect ImageDecoder to all WebContent
processes on restart.
This makes WebView::Database wrap around sqlite3 instead of LibSQL. The
effect on outside callers is pretty minimal. The main consequences are:
1. We must ensure the Cookie table exists before preparing any SQL
statements involving that table.
2. We can use an INSERT OR REPLACE statement instead of separate INSERT
and UPDATE statements.
When we receive a LibCore event, we post an "application defined" Cocoa
event to the NSApp. However, we are currently only processing these from
`pump`, which is only invoked manually.
Instead, we should listen for the event that we've posted and process
the event queue at that time. This is much closer to how Qt's event loop
behaves as well with EventLoopImplementationQtEventTarget.
It previously resided in LibWebView to hide the details of launching a
singleton process. That functionality now lives in LibCore. By moving
this to Ladybird, we will be able to register the process with the task
manager.
This adds an alternative Ladybird chrome for macOS using the AppKit
framework. Just about everything needed for normal web browsing has
been implemented. This includes:
* Tabbed, scrollable navigation
* History navigation (back, forward, reload)
* Keyboard / mouse events
* Favicons
* Context menus
* Cookies
* Dialogs (alert, confirm, prompt)
* WebDriver support
This does not include debugging tools like the JavaScript console and
inspector, nor theme support.
The Qt chrome is still used by default. To use the AppKit chrome, set
the ENABLE_QT CMake option to OFF.
