[Dillo-dev]Refresh patch for 0.8.4
by Kelly Price 31 Mar '05

31 Mar '05

Heya. New here. Glad someone's working on Dillo. Hope it comes full-featured like Firefox is with less than half the bloat! I'm attaching a fixed patch for 0.8.4 that allows meta-http refreshes. This is quite common with web chats (including Tag-Board). I've test-compiled and ran it, and so far so good. The next thing we'll need is the frames/iframes code now! -- Kelly "STrRedWolf" Price http://strredwolf.furrynet.com

[Dillo-dev]dillo-0.8.3
by Jorge Arellano Cid 10 Feb '05

10 Feb '05

Hi there, Finally dillo-0.8.3 is ready for download. It should have been named dillo-0.8.3-rc4, but as this release is too much delayed, I took a chance and called it dillo-0.8.3 with the hope of making the official announcement this Wednesday. Please download it and give it a hard try. Notwistanding my hopes, if any BUG is detected in this short period, an rc5 must follow... Please get it at: http://www.dillo.org/download/dillo-0.8.3.tar.bz2 and send your feedback. 36 hours of testing time remain! :-) -- Cheers Jorge.-

[Dillo-dev]Patch review: Frank de Lange patch (20031124)
by Bastiaan Jacques 02 Feb '05

02 Feb '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I am dissecting and reviewing Frank de Lange's 14,000 line patch that was rejected by the core dillo developers due to its size. I will email the list from time to time to gather input as to whether a particular portion of the patch is useful or not, beginning with the patch a little further down this message. The following patch does does two things in selection.c: - - make a_Selection_set_dclick_callback replace the callback instead of returning when the callback was already set. * This function is called only once in the code (in interface.c); the callback pointer always points to the same function. So I don't see a point in merging this first hunk, although it won't do any harm. Thoughts? - - Replace three comparison operators (==) with bitwise AND.. * This only works as expected when either lvalue and rvalue have exactly one or zero bits set to 1. Although this currently is true, this may change in the future; thus, I don't think these three hunks should be merged.

[Dillo-dev]RPM status
by Kelson Vibber 21 Jan '05

21 Jan '05

Over the weekend I managed to get User-Mode Linux running again (under an old Red Hat 7.3 partition that I hadn't gotten around to deleting), so I was able to fill in RPMs for the rest of the releases I had used for Dillo 0.8.3. I also installed Mandrake 10.1, and was able to add an RPM for that release. I installed SuSE 9.2, though the combination of slow hardware, average DSL, slow mirror, the occasional missing file on the mirror and little free time to work with meant that it took several days to get a working install. Last night I finally built Dillo on it, but there's a font problem. When I get a chance I'll try installing some other GTK-1.2 apps and see if it's just a system config problem, and if it is, I'll post the RPM. At that point I'll have RPMs for current releases of Fedora Core, Mandrake, and SuSE, and a number of older releases. I'm thinking of dropping some of the older releases next time, just to simplify things. -- Kelson Vibber www.hyperborea.org

[Dillo-dev]https, ssl & certificates
by robert w hall 19 Jan '05

19 Jan '05

Where are we at and where are we going with the issue of https, ssl and certificates? I usually run with https enabled and find it is a VERY useful adjunct to the main program - it has quirky behaviour on sites such as playstation2-linux (where the answer is to log in via ssl then leave ssl), but at least it enables posting there. Other sites now accessible include amazon.co.uk and groups.yahoo.com - a significant gain. But the situation over certificates appears confusing: - as I (cursorily) read the code, it uses standard SSL functions to parse entries in the .dillo/certs directory. I have a block of certificates stolen from another browser but they don't seem to change the need to force by the 'remote certificate cannot be verified20' messages. (Are these imported certs in a non-standard format perhaps?) And the code also appears to have a function to store accepted certificates, but I've never been aware of this happening. The code is reaching a level of maturity and acceptance where these remaining blemishes are puzzling 'us users'. Bob -- robert w hall

[Dillo-dev]Gtk2 port, GtkArg{Get,Set}Func
by Keenan Pepper 15 Jan '05

15 Jan '05

Hi, I'm working on a Gtk2 port of Dillo to use on my Zaurus (with the GPE rom from OpenZaurus). Before everyone starts saying "That's stupid, Gtk2 is so bloated and slow, why would you want to do that?", let me say that right now I'm using the Gtk2 port of Dillo 0.6.6, which as you all know is ancient and renders html badly compared to newer versions of Dillo, but it's still the best and fastest browser I can get to work on GPE. So periodically I'll be asking "What does this thing do?"-type questions on this list as I try to make current Dillo compile and run with Gtk2. For now I just want to request that all the deprecated (GtkArgSetFunc) NULL and (GtkArgGetFunc) NULL casts be removed and changed to simply NULL as recommended here: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.2/gtk/gtk-changes-1-2.html This has nothing to do with Gtk2, in fact eventually I should change all the GtkObject stuff to GObject stuff anyway, but when I first blindly tried to make it compile that was the error that came up the most, and it can and should be changed upstream. Cheers, Keenan Pepper

[Dillo-dev]why can dillo be small and fast
by Yu Zenghui 14 Jan '05

14 Jan '05

Relative to other browsers, why can dillo be small and fast? Can anybody tell me the reason from the viewpoint of design and implementation. The code of dillo is fewer than other larger desktop browser. But fewer code means fewer functions. How to keep balance between the two conflicts? Thank you!

[Dillo-dev]cache replace
by Yu Zenghui 13 Jan '05

13 Jan '05

hello all: it seems that dillo doesn't use cache replace algorithms. it simply inserts new entry into the hash table. then if the program runs for a long time, it will use more and more memories. doesn't it?

[Dillo-dev]what is the event for rendering
by Yu Zenghui 13 Jan '05

13 Jan '05

i try to look for the function which is used to begin rendering, but i failed. who can tell me what the function is? if there is no such function, what event triggers the rendering? does dillo begin to render after the whole html document is parsed, or once after one element is parsed? thank you!

[Dillo-dev]How does CCC handle the parallelism of IO?
by uniharmony＠gmail.com 12 Jan '05

12 Jan '05

In my opinion, the CCC is a dynamic doubly linked list with function pointers. And all the CCC functions in the chain are called serially. How does CCC handle the parallelism of IO? And Why do you consider it as "pseudo-thread"? I want to dive in it and thanks for reply.
