edburns%acm.org 7f3d1127ae The churn continues. After this checkin, BrowserControlFactoryTest
runs, but nothing else does.

As you all probably already know, all mozilla API calls have to happen
on the same thread.  For webclient, this will be the NativeEventThread.
This change-bundle does many many things, here are the main ones.

These changes are in concert with the checkin I just did to the diagram
at
<http://www.mozilla.org/projects/blackwood/webclient/design/20040306-webclient-2_0.zargo>.

M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/WrapperFactory.java
M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/wrapper_native/WrapperFactoryImpl.java

 * <p>This class is the hub of the startup and shutdown sequence for
 * Webclient.  It is a singleton and owns references to other app
 * singletons:</p>
 *
 * 	<ul>
 * 	  <li><p>{@link NativeEventThread}</p></li>
 *
 * 	  <li><p>{@link Bookmarks}</p></li>
 *
 * 	  <li><p>{@link Preferences}</p></li>
 *
 * 	  <li><p>{@link ProfileManager}</p></li>

 * 	  <li><p>the native object singleton corresponding to this java
 * 	  object (if necessary)</p></li>
 *
 *	</ul>
 *
 * <p>It maintains a set of {@link BrowserControlImpl} instances so that
 * we may return the native pointer for each one.</p>
 *
 * <p>This class is responsible for creating and initializing and
 * deleting {@link BrowserControlImpl} instances, as well as ensuring
 * that the native counterpart is proprely maintained in kind.</p>
 *
 * <p>This class has a tight contract with {@link
 * NativeEventThread}.</p>

- make BrowserControl creation and deletion part of this classes
  responsibilities.

- introduce NativeWrapperFactory concept.

- own the one and only NativeEventThread.

M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/wrapper_native/NativeEventThread.java

- make this a singleton.

- remove dependencies on BrowserControl and nativeBrowserControl

 * <p>This is a singleton class.  All native events pass thru this class
 * by virtue of the {@link #pushRunnable} or {@link pushNotifyRunnable}
 * methods.</p>

- remove listener logic.  This'll go into EventRegistration, where it
  belongs.

A src_moz/NativeWrapperFactory.cpp
A src_moz/NativeWrapperFactory.h

- takes the place of the old WebclientContext

- is now a class

M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/BrowserControlImpl.java

- this no longer destroys the nativeBrowserControl.  That is now done by
  WrapperFactoryImpl.

M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/WebclientFactoryImpl.java

- no longer maintain browserControlCount.

M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/wrapper_native/BookmarksImpl.java
M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/wrapper_native/NavigationImpl.java
M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/wrapper_native/PreferencesImpl.java
M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/wrapper_native/ProfileManagerImpl.java

- rename NativeContext to NativeWrapperFactory, to illustrate its
  singletonness.

M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/wrapper_native/EventRegistrationImpl.java

- comment out a bunch of stuff in anticipation of the new threading
  model, currently being fleshed out.

M classes_spec/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/wrapper_native/ImplObjectNative.java

- NativeEventThread is singleton

M src_moz/BookmarksImpl.cpp
M src_moz/PreferencesImpl.cpp
M src_moz/ProfileManagerImpl.cpp
M src_moz/RDFEnumeration.cpp
M src_moz/RDFTreeNode.cpp

- rename WebclientContext to NativeWrapperFactory.

M src_moz/EmbedWindow.cpp

-  mBaseWindow->Destroy();
+  if (mBaseWindow) {
+      mBaseWindow->Destroy();
+  }

M src_moz/Makefile.in

- Bring back NavigationImpl

- add NativeWrapperFactory.

M src_moz/NativeBrowserControl.cpp
M src_moz/NativeBrowserControl.h

- move event queue and java related stuff to NativeWrapperFactory.  This
  class is now essentially a copy of EmbedPrivate in GtkEmbed.

M src_moz/NativeEventThread.cpp

- remove methods, most of it has moved to
  WrapperFactoryImpl/NativeWrapperFactory.

M src_moz/NavigationImpl.cpp

- comment out all methods but LoadURI.

M src_moz/WrapperFactoryImpl.cpp

- take functionality over from NativeEventThread.

M src_moz/ns_util.cpp
M src_moz/ns_util.h

- the eventQueue is owned by NativeWrapperFactory now.

M src_moz/rdf_util.cpp
M src_share/jni_util.cpp

- make all exceptions RuntimeExceptions, so they can be thrown from a
  Runnable.

M test/automated/src/classes/org/mozilla/webclient/impl/wrapper_native/WrapperFactoryImplTest.java

- comment out the meat of this test until I figure out how to test it.

M test/automated/src/test/BrowserControlFactoryTest_correct

- new content.

This README documents the Java Enhancers to the Mozilla web browser.

Currently, the only active sub-project is the Webclient Java API to the
Mozilla web browser.  This project also leverages the JavaDOM
sub-project.

Requirements:

* J2SDK 1.3.1 or later

* Apache ant 1.4.1 or later.  If running under J2SDK 1.4.2 or later, you
  need ant 1.6.1, due to javah issues.

* Successfully built debug enabled Mozilla 1.6 tree

How To Build:

* cd to the directory above your top level mozilla directory and cvs
  checkout the Webclient module.

* Modify mozilla/allmakefiles.sh and prepend the contents of the file
  "makefiles", in this directory, to add_makefiles section after the
  "Common makfiles used by everyone" comment.

* re-run ./configure to generate the java makefiles

* put the "mozilla/dist/bin" directory in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Unix,
  or PATH on Win32.

* set the value of the environment var MOZ_JDKHOME to be your J2SDK
  directory.

* Create a build.properties file in the mozilla/java directory with the
  following contents.

######
build.unix.classes=true
build.win32.classes=false
build.home=/home/edburns/Projects/mozilla/MOZILLA_1_4/mozilla/dist/classes
compile.debug=true
######

  Of course, set the values of the above properties correctly according
  to your system.

* run "ant" in the mozilla/java directory.  This will build webclient
  and all dependent libraries.  

How to run the Junit tests:

* Make sure junit.jar is properly set in your mozilla/java/build.properties

* Make sure junit.jar is installed in your $ANT_HOME/lib directory

* Set the following variables in your environment

NSPR_LOG_MODULES=webclient:4,webclientstub:4
NSPR_LOG_FILE=logfile.txt

* cd to mozilla/java/webclient

* Kill any running mozilla instances.  These will mess up the
  profilemanager code.

* run ant test

How to run the test browser (broken as of this writing):

* cd to mozilla/java/webclient/src_moz and run the "runem" batch file to
  run the test browser.

Problems?

* post to netscape.public.mozilla.java newsgroup
