* clippy: fix warnings in components/gfx
* refactor: switched the order of impl so that its intent is clearer
* fix: add font context default in other platforms
Synthetic small caps is supported by the font subsystem, but this is
disabled in Layout 2020. We can turn this on to bring support to parity
with the old layout system.
In addition to turning on synthetic small-caps this change also improves
the way that they work. Before, synthetic small caps meant that every
character was a small version of capitalized character. After this
change, capital letters are larger than small caps versions of small
letters -- matching other browsers and the common expectation of how
small caps works.
We previously sent a " " to the linebreaker in order to ensure that the
next text had a soft wrap opportunity at the start. Calling `next(" ")`
without waiting until the returned index was 1, violated some
invariants of linebreaker ultimately causing a panic.
Instead of using the linebreaker for this, simply keep a flag in the
IFC layout state, which avoids the problem entirely.
Fixes#30703.
Add an IndexableText structure for text queries.
Instead of linear search for a node this now uses a HashMap.
Remove the now irrelevant fields from TextDisplayItem.
WR now has a concept of font templates and font instances. This
makes the WR font interfaces closer to Cairo and Gecko, and also
makes some future performance optimizations possible.
A font template is the font family, and data backing the font.
A font instance is a reference to a font template and per-instance
options, such as font size, anti-aliasing settings etc.
To update Servo in a minimally invasive way, I added a new font
cache call, that creates a font instance. This means that when
a font is created, and doesn't exist in the cache there are now
two calls to the font cache thread. We could refactor the font
cache to make this work in one call, which we should do in the
future. However, refactoring the font cache is a large chunk of
work by itself. The extra call is only when a font doesn't already
exist in the font context cache, so it should have minimal
performance impact.
This removes paint threads, rust-layers dependency, and changes
optional webrender types to be required.
The use_webrender option has been removed, however I've left
the "-w" command line option in place so that wpt
runner can continue to pass that. Once it's removed from there
we can also remove the -w option.
Once this stage is complete, it should be fine to change the
display list building code to generate webrender display
lists directly and avoid the conversion step.
Replace character indices with UTF-8 byte offsets throughout the code dealing
with text shaping and breaking. This eliminates a lot of complexity when
converting from one to the other, and interoperates better with the rest of
the Rust ecosystem.
WebRender is an experimental GPU accelerated rendering backend for Servo.
The WebRender backend can be specified by running Servo with the -w option (otherwise the default rendering backend will be used).
WebRender has many bugs, and missing features - but it is usable to browse most websites - please report any WebRender specific rendering bugs you encounter!
This commit introduces the `serde` dependency, which we will use to
serialize messages going between processes in multiprocess Servo.
This also adds a new debugging flag, `-Z print-display-list-json`,
allowing the output of display list serialization to be visualized.
This will be useful for our experiments with alternate rasterizers.
