To change the appearance of the cursor, we use the CSS cursor style
and set the url to a data URI scheme. The image data sent via the
cursor pseudo-encoding has to be encoded to a CUR format file before
being used in the data URI.
During Canvas initialization we try and set a simple cursor to see if
the browser has support. Opera is missing support for data URI scheme
in cursor URLs.
Disabled for now until we have a better way of specifying settings
overall (too many settings for control bar now).
Add message/state pollling in web-socket-js. Since Opera tends to drop
message events, we can dramatically increase performance by polling
every now for message event data.
Also, add more direct calls to update readyState so that it's not
missed when Opera drops events.
Instead of relying on FABridge AS -> JS event delivery, we just use
the events to notify JS of pending data. The message handler then
calls the AS readSocketData routine which sends back an array of
the pending WebSocket frames.
There is still a minor bug somewhere that happens after the first
connect where the web-socket-js throws an "INVALID_STATE_ERR: Web
Socket connection has not been established". But, Opera is now usable
and we should be able to drop the packet sequence numbering and
re-ordering code.
Another minor issue to better support Opera is to move JS script
includes to the <head> of the page instead of after the body.
Pull in LGPL md5.c and md5.h files (written by Ulrich Drepper).
Now both python and C version of the proxy support both protocol 75
and protocol 76 (hybi 00).
Reorganize websocket.py slightly to match websocket.c.
Interesting. Enough has changed in the Canvas tile operations, that
Canvas.prefer_js=true is better for firefox/gecko too. Approximately
2X improvement in firefox for large hextile renders.
Looks like disabling web-socket-js debug messages by default that we
get a minor speedup.
Python proxy should support both 75 and 76 (00) modes. Also, update ws
test to more reliably hit the WebSockets ordering/drop issue.
The purpose of the code is to be incorporated into other web projects
(whether those are free or not). AGPL prevents combination with other
HTML and javascript that is under a weaker (or proprietary) license.
Better would be a lesser AGPL, but there is not GNU standard for that.
So LGPL-3 meets most of my requirements. If somebody modifies the
actual client code and conveys it, then they must release the changes
under LGPL-3 also.
Add some implementation notes in docs/notes.
