|
||
<h2>Overview</h2>
|
||
When a new style property is needed there are many places in the code that
|
||
need to be updated. This document outlines the procedure used to add a new
|
||
property, in this case the property is a proprietary one called '-moz-force-broken-image-icons'
|
||
and is used as a way for a stylesheet to force broken image icons to be displayed.
|
||
This is all being done in the context of <a href="http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58646">
|
||
bug 58646</a>.
|
||
|
||
<h2>Analysis</h2>
|
||
<p>Up front you have to decide some things about the new property:</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><b>Questions:</b></p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Is the property proprietary or specified by the CSS standard?</li>
|
||
<li>Is the property inherited?</li>
|
||
<li>What types of values can the property have?</li>
|
||
<li>Does it logically fit with other existing properties?</li>
|
||
<li>What is the impact to the layout of a page if that property changes?</li>
|
||
<li>What do you want to name it?</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<p><b>Answers:</b></p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>In our specific case, we want a property that is used internally,
|
||
so it is a proprietary property.</li>
|
||
<li>The property is to be used for images, which are leaf elements, so
|
||
there is no need to inherit it.</li>
|
||
<li>The property is used simply to force a broken image to be represented
|
||
by an icon, so it only supports the values '0' and '1' as numerics.<2E></li>
|
||
<li>It is hard to see how this property fits logically in with other
|
||
properties, but if we stretch our imaginations we could say that it is a
|
||
sort of UI property.</li>
|
||
<li>If this property changes, the image frame has to be recreated. This
|
||
is because the decision about whether to display the icon or not will impact
|
||
the decision to replace the image frame with an inline text frame for the
|
||
ALT text, so if the ALT text inline is already made, there is no image frame
|
||
left around to reflow or otherwise modify.</li>
|
||
<li>Finally, the name will be '-moz-force-broken-image-icons' - that
|
||
should be pretty self-describing (by convention we start proprietary property
|
||
names with '-moz-').</li>
|
||
</ol>
|
||
<h2>Implementation</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>There are several places that need to be educated about a new style property.
|
||
They are:
|
||
</p>
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li><a href="#CSSPropList">CSS Property Names and Hint Tables</a>: the new
|
||
property name must be made formally know to the system</li>
|
||
<li><a href="#CSSDeclaration">CSS Declaration</a>: the declaration must be
|
||
able to hold the property and its value(s)</li>
|
||
<li><a href="#Parser">CSS Parser</a>: the parser must be able to parse the
|
||
property name, validate the values, and provide a declaration for the property
|
||
and value</li>
|
||
<li><a href="#StyleContext">Style Context</a>: the StyleContext must be able
|
||
to hold the resolved value of the property, and provide a means to retrieve the
|
||
property value. Additionally, the StyleContext has to know what kind of impact a
|
||
change to this property causes.</li>
|
||
<li><a href="#RuleNode">Rule Nodes</a>: the RuleNodes need to know how the
|
||
property is inherited and how it is shared by other elements.</li>
|
||
<li><a href="#DOM">DOM</a>: Your style should be accessible from the DOM so
|
||
users may dynamically set/get its property value.</li>
|
||
<li><a href="#Layout">Layout</a>: layout has to know what to do with the
|
||
property, in other words, the meaning of the property.</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
<h3><a name="CSSPropList">CSS Property Name / Constants / Hints</a></h3>
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
First, add the new name to the property list in <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/shared/public/nsCSSPropList.h">
|
||
nsCSSPropList.h</a>
|
||
<20>Insert the property in the list alphabetically, using the existing
|
||
property names as a template. The format of the entry you will create is:
|
||
</p>
|
||
<pre>CSS_PROP(-moz-force-broken-image-icons, force_broken_image_icons, MozForceBrokenImageIcons, NS_STYLE_HINT_FRAMECHANGE) // bug 58646</pre>
|
||
|
||
<p>The first value is the formal property name, in other words the property
|
||
name as it is seen by the CSS parser.<br>
|
||
The second value is the name of the property as it will appear internally.<br>
|
||
The third value is the name of the DOM property used to access your style.<br>
|
||
The last value indicates what must change when the value of the property
|
||
changes. It should be an
|
||
<a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/shared/public/nsChangeHint.h">nsChangeHint</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>If you need to introduce new constants for the values of the property, they
|
||
must be added to <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/layout/base/public/nsStyleConsts.h">
|
||
nsStyleConsts.h</a>
|
||
and to the appropriate keyword tables in <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/shared/src/nsCSSProps.cpp">
|
||
nsCSSProps.cpp</a>
|
||
(note: this cookbook does not do this since the new property does not require
|
||
any new keywords for the property values).
|
||
<h3><a name="CSSDeclaration">CSS Declaration</a></h3>
|
||
Changes will need to be made to the structs and classes defined in <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/html/style/src/nsCSSDeclaration.h">
|
||
nsCSSDeclaration.h </a>
|
||
and <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/html/style/src/nsCSSDeclaration.cpp">
|
||
nsCSSDeclaration.cpp</a>
|
||
<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
First, find the declaration of the struct that will hold the new property
|
||
value (in the header file). For this example it is the struct <b>nsCSSUserInterface</b>
|
||
. Modify the struct declaration to include a new data member for the new
|
||
property, of the type CSSValue. Next, open the implementation file (the cpp)
|
||
and modify the struct's constructors. <br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
Next, the <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/html/style/src/nsCSSDeclaration.cpp#1410">
|
||
AppendValue</a>
|
||
method must be updated to support your new property. The CSSParser will
|
||
call this to build up a declaration. Find the portion of that method that
|
||
deals with the other properties in the struct that you are adding your property
|
||
to (or create a new section if you are creating a new style struct). For
|
||
this example we will find the 'UserInterface' section and add our new property
|
||
<a href="#AppendValueCase">there</a>
|
||
.<br>
|
||
<pre> // nsCSSUserInterface
|
||
case eCSSProperty_user_input:

case eCSSProperty_key_equivalent:

CSS_ENSURE_DATA(theUserInterface->mKeyEquivalent, nsCSSValueList) {
|

theUserInterface->mKeyEquivalent->mValue = aValue;
|

CSS_IF_DELETE(theUserInterface->mKeyEquivalent->mNext);
|

}
|

break;

case eCSSProperty_resizer: theUserInterface->mResizer = aValue; break;
|

case eCSSProperty_cursor:
|

CSS_ENSURE_DATA(theUserInterface->mCursor, nsCSSValueList) {
|
||
theUserInterface->mCursor->mValue = aValue;
|

CSS_IF_DELETE(theUserInterface->mCursor->mNext);
|
||
}
|
||
break;
|
||
<b> <a name="AppendValueCase"></a>case eCSSProperty_force_broken_image_icons: theUserInterface->mForceBrokenImageIcon = aValue; break;
|

</b>
|

CSS_BOGUS_DEFAULT; // make compiler happy
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
break;
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
</pre>
|
||
The GetValue method must be similarly <a href="#GetValueCase">modified</a>
|
||
:<br>
|
||
<pre> // nsCSSUserInterface
|
||
case eCSSProperty_user_input:
|
||
case eCSSProperty_user_modify:
|
||
case eCSSProperty_user_select:
|
||
case eCSSProperty_key_equivalent:

case eCSSProperty_user_focus:
|
||
case eCSSProperty_resizer:
|
||
case eCSSProperty_cursor:
|
||
case eCSSProperty_force_broken_image_icons: {
|
||
CSS_VARONSTACK_GET(UserInterface);
|
||
if (nullptr != theUserInterface) {
|
||
switch (aProperty) {
|
||
case eCSSProperty_user_input: aValue = theUserInterface->mUserInput; break;
|
||
case eCSSProperty_user_modify: aValue = theUserInterface->mUserModify; break;
|
||
case eCSSProperty_user_select: aValue = theUserInterface->mUserSelect; break;
|
||
case eCSSProperty_key_equivalent:
|
||
if (nullptr != theUserInterface->mKeyEquivalent) {
|
||
aValue = theUserInterface->mKeyEquivalent->mValue;
|
||
}
|
||
break;
|
||
case eCSSProperty_user_focus: aValue = theUserInterface->mUserFocus; break;
|
||
case eCSSProperty_resizer: aValue = theUserInterface->mResizer; break;
|
||
case eCSSProperty_cursor:
|
||
if (nullptr != theUserInterface->mCursor) {
|
||
aValue = theUserInterface->mCursor->mValue;
|
||
}
|
||
break;
|
||
<b> <a name="GetValueCase"></a>case eCSSProperty_force_broken_image_icons: aValue = theUserInterface->mForceBrokenImageIcons; break;

}

else {
|
||
aValue.Reset();
|
||
}
|
||
break;
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
</pre>
|
||
Finally <a href="#ListCase">modify </a>
|
||
the 'List' method to output the property value.<br>
|
||
<pre>void nsCSSUserInterface::List(FILE* out, int32_t aIndent) const
|
||
{
|
||
for (int32_t index = aIndent; --index >= 0; ) fputs(" ", out);
|
||
|
||
nsAutoString buffer;
|
||
|
||
mUserInput.AppendToString(buffer, eCSSProperty_user_input);
|
||
mUserModify.AppendToString(buffer, eCSSProperty_user_modify);
|
||
mUserSelect.AppendToString(buffer, eCSSProperty_user_select);
|
||
nsCSSValueList* keyEquiv = mKeyEquivalent;
|
||
while (nullptr != keyEquiv) {
|
||
keyEquiv->mValue.AppendToString(buffer, eCSSProperty_key_equivalent);
|
||
keyEquiv= keyEquiv->mNext;
|
||
}
|
||
mUserFocus.AppendToString(buffer, eCSSProperty_user_focus);
|
||
mResizer.AppendToString(buffer, eCSSProperty_resizer);
|
||
|
||
nsCSSValueList* cursor = mCursor;
|
||
while (nullptr != cursor) {
|
||
cursor->mValue.AppendToString(buffer, eCSSProperty_cursor);
|
||
cursor = cursor->mNext;
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
<b> <a name="ListCase"></a>mForceBrokenImageIcon.AppendToString(buffer,eCSSProperty_force_broken_image_icons);</b>
|
||
|
||
fputs(NS_LossyConvertUTF16toASCII(buffer).get(), out);
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
</pre>
|
||
|
||
<h3><a name="Parser">CSS Parser</a></h3>
|
||
Next, the CSSParser must be educated about this new property so that it can
|
||
read in the formal declarations and build up the internal declarations that
|
||
will be used to build the rules. If you are adding a simple property that
|
||
takes a single value, you simply add your new property to the ParseSingleProperty
|
||
method. If a more complex parsing is required you will have to write a new
|
||
method to handle it, modeling it off of one of the existing parsing helper
|
||
methods (see <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/html/style/src/nsCSSParser.cpp#4151">
|
||
ParseBackground</a>
|
||
, for and example). We are just adding a simple single-value property here.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
Open nsCSSParser.cpp and look for the method <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/html/style/src/nsCSSParser.cpp#3580">
|
||
ParseSingleProperty</a>
|
||
. This method is responsible for calling the relevant helper routine to parse
|
||
the value(s). Find an existing property that is similar to the property you
|
||
are adding. For our example we are adding a property that takes a numeric
|
||
value so we will model it after the 'height' property and call ParsePositiveVariant.
|
||
Add a new case for the new property and call the appropriate parser-helper
|
||
and make a call to ParseVariant passing the <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/html/style/src/nsCSSParser.cpp#2754">
|
||
variant flag</a>
|
||
that makes sense for your property. In our case<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
<pre><EFBFBD> case eCSSProperty_force_broken_image_icons:</pre>
|
||
<pre><EFBFBD><EFBFBD><EFBFBD> return ParsePositiveVariant(aErrorCode, aValue, VARIANT_INTEGER, nullptr);</pre>
|
||
This will parse the value as a positive integer value, which is what we want.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
<h3><a name="StyleContext">Style Context</a></h3>
|
||
Having implemented support for the new property in the CSS Parser and CSS
|
||
Declaration classes in the content module, it is now time to provide support
|
||
for the new property in layout. The Style Context must be given a new data
|
||
member corresponding to the declaration's new data member, so the computed
|
||
value can be held for the layout objects to use.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
First look into <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/shared/public/nsStyleStruct.h">
|
||
nsStyleStruct.h</a>
|
||
to see the existing style strucs. Find the one that you want to store the
|
||
data on. In this example, we want to put it on the nsStyleUserInterface struct,
|
||
however there is also a class nsStyleUIReset that holds the non-inherited
|
||
values, so we will use that one (remember, our property is not inherited).
|
||
Add a <a href="#StyleContextMember">data member</a>
|
||
to hold the value:
|
||
<pre>struct nsStyleUIReset {
|
||
nsStyleUIReset(void);
|
||
nsStyleUIReset(const nsStyleUIReset& aOther);
|
||
~nsStyleUIReset(void);
|
||
|
||
NS_DEFINE_STATIC_STYLESTRUCTID_ACCESSOR(eStyleStruct_UIReset)
|
||
|
||
void* operator new(size_t sz, nsPresContext* aContext) {
|
||
return aContext->AllocateFromShell(sz);
|
||
}
|
||
void Destroy(nsPresContext* aContext) {
|
||
this->~nsStyleUIReset();
|
||
aContext->FreeToShell(sizeof(nsStyleUIReset), this);
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
int32_t CalcDifference(const nsStyleUIReset& aOther) const;
|
||
|
||
uint8_t mUserSelect; // [reset] (selection-style)
|
||
PRUnichar mKeyEquivalent; // [reset] XXX what type should this be?
|
||
uint8_t mResizer; // [reset]
|
||
<b><a name="StyleContextMember"></a>uint8_t mForceBrokenImageIcon; // [reset] (0 if not forcing, otherwise forcing)</b>
|
||
};
|
||
</pre>
|
||
In the implementation file <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/shared/src/nsStyleStruct.cpp">
|
||
nsStyleContext.cpp </a>
|
||
add the new data member to the constructors of the style struct and the CalcDifference
|
||
method, which must return the correct style-change hint when a change to
|
||
your new property is detected. The constructor changes are obvious, but here
|
||
is the CalcDifference change for our example:<br>
|
||
<pre>int32_t nsStyleUIReset::CalcDifference(const nsStyleUIReset& aOther) const
|
||
{
|
||
<b> if (mForceBrokenImageIcon == aOther.mForceBrokenImageIcon) {</b>
|
||
if (mResizer == aOther.mResizer) {
|
||
if (mUserSelect == aOther.mUserSelect) {
|
||
if (mKeyEquivalent == aOther.mKeyEquivalent) {
|
||
return NS_STYLE_HINT_NONE;
|
||
}
|
||
return NS_STYLE_HINT_CONTENT;
|
||
}
|
||
return NS_STYLE_HINT_VISUAL;
|
||
}
|
||
return NS_STYLE_HINT_VISUAL;
|
||
}
|
||
<b>return NS_STYLE_HINT_FRAMECHANGE;
|
||
</b>}
|
||
</pre>
|
||
<h3>CSSStyleRule</h3>
|
||
The nsCSSStyleRule must be updated to manage mapping the declaration to the
|
||
style struct. In the file <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/html/style/src/nsCSSStyleRule.cpp">
|
||
nsCSSStyleRule.cpp</a>
|
||
, locate the Declaration mapping function corresponding to the style struct
|
||
you have added your property to. For example, we <a href="http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/MapUIForDeclChange">
|
||
update </a>
|
||
MapUIForDeclaration:<br>
|
||
<pre>static nsresult
|
||
MapUIForDeclaration(nsCSSDeclaration* aDecl, const nsStyleStructID& aID, nsCSSUserInterface& aUI)
|
||
{
|
||
if (!aDecl)
|
||
return NS_OK; // The rule must have a declaration.
|
||
|
||
nsCSSUserInterface* ourUI = (nsCSSUserInterface*)aDecl->GetData(kCSSUserInterfaceSID);
|
||
if (!ourUI)
|
||
return NS_OK; // We don't have any rules for UI.
|
||
|
||
if (aID == eStyleStruct_UserInterface) {
|
||
if (aUI.mUserFocus.GetUnit() == eCSSUnit_Null && ourUI->mUserFocus.GetUnit() != eCSSUnit_Null)
|
||
aUI.mUserFocus = ourUI->mUserFocus;
|
||
|
||
if (aUI.mUserInput.GetUnit() == eCSSUnit_Null && ourUI->mUserInput.GetUnit() != eCSSUnit_Null)
|

aUI.mUserInput = ourUI->mUserInput;

aUI.mUserModify = ourUI->mUserModify;

return NS_OK;

}
|

</pre>
|
||
<h3><a name="RuleNode">Rule Node</a></h3>
|
||
Now we have to update the RuleNode code to know about the new property. First,
|
||
locate the PropertyCheckData array for the data that you added the new property
|
||
to. For this example, we add the following:<br>
|
||
<pre>static const PropertyCheckData UIResetCheckProperties[] = {
|
||
CHECKDATA_PROP(nsCSSUserInterface, mUserSelect, CHECKDATA_VALUE, PR_FALSE),
|
||
CHECKDATA_PROP(nsCSSUserInterface, mResizer, CHECKDATA_VALUE, PR_FALSE),
|
||
CHECKDATA_PROP(nsCSSUserInterface, mKeyEquivalent, CHECKDATA_VALUELIST, PR_FALSE)
|
||
<b>CHECKDATA_PROP(nsCSSUserInterface, mForceBrokenImageIcon, CHECKDATA_VALUE, PR_FALSE)</b>
|
||
};
|
||
</pre>
|
||
The first two arguments correspond to the structure and data member from
|
||
the CSSDeclaration, the third is the data type, the fourth indicates
|
||
whether it is a coord value that uses an explicit inherit value on the
|
||
style data struct that must be computed by layout.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
Next, we have to make sure the ComputeXXX method for the structure the property
|
||
was added to is updated to mange the new value. In this example we need to
|
||
modify the nsRuleNode::ComputeUIResetData method to handle the CSS Declaration
|
||
to the style struct:<br>
|
||
<pre> ...
|
||
// resizer: auto, none, enum, inherit
|
||
if (eCSSUnit_Enumerated == uiData.mResizer.GetUnit()) {
|
||
ui->mResizer = uiData.mResizer.GetIntValue();
|
||
}
|
||
else if (eCSSUnit_Auto == uiData.mResizer.GetUnit()) {
|
||
ui->mResizer = NS_STYLE_RESIZER_AUTO;
|
||
}
|
||
else if (eCSSUnit_None == uiData.mResizer.GetUnit()) {
|
||
ui->mResizer = NS_STYLE_RESIZER_NONE;
|
||
}
|
||
else if (eCSSUnit_Inherit == uiData.mResizer.GetUnit()) {
|
||
inherited = PR_TRUE;
|
||
ui->mResizer = parentUI->mResizer;
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
<b>// force-broken-image-icons: integer, inherit, initial
|
||
if (eCSSUnit_Integer == uiData.mForceBrokenImageIcons.GetUnit()) {
|
||
ui->mForceBrokenImageIcons = uiData.mForceBrokenImageIcons.GetIntValue();
|
||
} else if (eCSSUnit_Inherit == uiData.mForceBrokenImageIcons.GetUnit()) {
|
||
inherited = PR_TRUE;
|
||
ui->mForceBrokenImageIcons = parentUI->mForceBrokenImageIcons;
|
||
} else if (eCSSUnit_Initial == uiData.mForceBrokenImageIcons.GetUnit()) {
|
||
ui->mForceBrokenImageIcons = 0;
|
||
}</b>
|
||
|
||
if (inherited)
|
||
// We inherited, and therefore can't be cached in the rule node. We have to be put right on the
|
||
// style context.
|
||
aContext->SetStyle(eStyleStruct_UIReset, *ui);
|
||
else {
|
||
// We were fully specified and can therefore be cached right on the rule node.
|
||
if (!aHighestNode->mStyleData.mResetData)
|
||
aHighestNode->mStyleData.mResetData = new (mPresContext) nsResetStyleData;
|
||
aHighestNode->mStyleData.mResetData->mUIData = ui;
|
||
// Propagate the bit down.
|
||
PropagateDependentBit(NS_STYLE_INHERIT_UI_RESET, aHighestNode);
|
||
}
|
||
...
|
||
</pre>
|
||
<h3><a name="DOM">DOM</a></h3>
|
||
Users in scripts, or anywhere outside of layout/ or content/ may need to access
|
||
the new property. This is done using the CSS OM, specifically
|
||
<code>nsIDOMCSSStyleDeclaration</code> and <code>CSS2Properties</code>.
|
||
By the magic of C++ pre-processing, the
|
||
CSS2Properties bits will be implemented automatically when you
|
||
<a href="#CSSPropList">add your property</a> to <a href="http://lxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/content/shared/public/nsCSSPropList.h">
|
||
nsCSSPropList.h</a>.
|
||
<h3><a name="Layout">Layout</a></h3>
|
||
OK, finally the style system is supporting the new property. It is time to
|
||
actually make use of it now.<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
In layout, retrieve the styleStruct that has the new property from the frame's
|
||
style context. Access the new property and get its value. It is that simple.
|
||
For this example, it looks like this, in nsImageFrame:<br>
|
||
<pre> PRBool forceIcon = PR_FALSE;
|
||
|
||
if (StyleUIReset()->mForceBrokenImageIcon) {
|
||
forceIcon = PR_TRUE;
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
</pre>
|
||
Create some testcases with style rules that use the new property, make sure
|
||
it is being parsed correctly. Test it in an external stylesheet and in inline
|
||
style. Test that it is inherited correctly, or not inherited as appropriate
|
||
to your property. Update this document with any further details, or correcting
|
||
any errors.<br>
