[dev-servo] Need some mentoring for layout bugs and help with tools
I'm trying to fix these 2 issues: https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/7816 https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/7868 I'd appreciate if someone could give me some hints to unblock me. Also, is there any "bird view" documentation of the Servo architecture? I kind of understand how constellation/compositors communicate with each other and others, but I'd like to learn more about pipelines and tasks. And, what kind of tools can I use to do a better job at debugging Servo? I've been using lldb, println and the debug logs. I also figured that we can dump a lot of different things (--debug help), but I found out there are non-documented options (--debug dump-layer-tree for example). Are there more? Are there any scripts/tools to process these logs? thanks. -- Paul ___ dev-servo mailing list dev-servo@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-servo

With regards to debugging techniques, glennw wrote a layout trace viewer a while ago that may be useful (but may also need updating): https://github.com/servo/servo/tree/master/etc/layout_viewer On 2015-10-08 8:03 AM, Paul Rouget wrote: I'm trying to fix these 2 issues: https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/7816 https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/7868 I'd appreciate if someone could give me some hints to unblock me.

With regards to documentation, https://github.com/servo/servo/wiki/Getting-started-with-layout is what we have right now.

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, Please be so kind to stop adding tests under `tests/reftests`. I'll be rewriting the existing tests to run with wptrunner (`./mach test-wpt _mozilla/css`) and removing the harness this quarter.

We can write a highfive check for adding new entries in basic.list.
