webkit not show.

[tumashu]

Hello, I have try emacs-webkit, compile and require is no problem, but when I use webkit command to open www.baidu.com, the webpage is not showed, does emacs need enable some feature?

I use native-comp branch at the moment, the below is my build.sh

#!/bin/bash

cd ${HOME}/emacs/emacs.git

git clean -df
git checkout feature/native-comp
git pull

make clean

date=$(date +%Y%m%d)

./configure --prefix="${HOME}/emacs/emacs28-gtk-${date}" --with-nativecomp
make
make install

[tumashu]

when I set (setq webkit-own-window t), I can see a emacs webkit window, but the size is very small.

I have the exact same problem running this native comp build on Arch Linux.

[akirakyle]

Can you try running with make debug and posting the stdout from that?

[xircon]

Same here too, Archlinuxcn build of native comp. This is probably not what you want:

make debug
cc -shared -std=c99 -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unused-parameter -O3 -fpic  `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-3.0 webkit2gtk-4.0 --libs webkit2gtk-4.0` -DDEBUG -g -o webkit-module.so webkit-module.c

But I tried!!!

[tumashu]

[yqu212]

I have the same issue as @tumashu but on emacs master branch.

emacs 28.0.50 master branch spacemacs develop branch Arch Linux on WSL webkit2gtk

[akirakyle]

Hmmm alright I'll spin up an arch linux vm to see if I can reproduce this there.

[yqu212]

Thanks.

[tumashu]

I use debian stable :-)

[yqu212]

Maybe this issue is related to #7 .

[akirakyle]

So I wasn't able to reproduce on debian stable. Could you see if you still get this issue with emacs -Q?

[akirakyle]

Oh wait, disregard that, I am able to reproduce. I had gotten so used to always building --with-pgtk, I forgot you all are running --with-x

This is interesting, previously when I had tested --with-x, it had just suffered the flickering issue that affects xwidgets but this doesn't seem to even be rendering. Alas the horrors of Emacs on X. It may be related to #7, in which case it should hopefully be straightforward to fix, but if it turns out to be something with how Emacs abuses handles gtk with x11, then it may be much harder to diagnose the issue. Given that pgtk just landed upstream, my motivation to debug X bugs will probably continue to lessen.

[inigoserna]

First all, thanks for this awesome work.

I observed this behaviour in my X/gtk builds, no matter the branch (master or nativecomp), but it works perfectly with the pgtk branch. It often happens to me with xwidget-webkit as well, so I think you are right on your assumptions regarding emacs interaction with X/gtk..

Btw, I'm using Fedora 33 so it doesn't look this is a distro package problem either.

[edgar-vincent]

I can confirm that the issue doesn't appear when using emacs-native-comp-git-enhanced on Arch Linux (which is compiled with pgtk support enabled).

[xircon]

emacs-native-comp-git-enhanced fixes webkit, but breaks my hyper keybindings, so is a no go I am afraid :(

[akirakyle]

@xircon that sounds like a bug in pgtk, you might want to report it to https://github.com/masm11/emacs, or maybe create an emacs bug report? Now that pgtk is in an upstream branch I'm not sure where @masm11 wants bug reports to go.

[akirakyle]

I think I fixed this issue, so emacs --with-x should now display webkit, albeit probably with the same flickering behavior that currently plagues xwidgets on x. Can you all confirm that this is the case?

[tumashu]

wow, I will try next week, I have faced flickering too in debian stable, xwidget and EAF, if emacs-webkit has the same problem, maybe xserver' problem, maybe we should try a newer verson of xserver

[yqu212]

@akirakyle Yes. Emacs displays webkit now, but it also begins to flicker.

[inigoserna]

I think I fixed this issue, so emacs --with-x should now display webkit, albeit probably with the same flickering behavior that currently plagues xwidgets on x. Can you all confirm that this is the case?

I can confirm that it works now but, as you said, with lots of flickering.

Master and nativecomp branches, on Fedora 33.

Thanks!

[tumashu]

I can confirm that it works now but, as you said, with lots of flickering.

my emacs too, but if emacs lost focus, it do not flickering,

[tumashu]

I think the flickering is: switch to emacs -> switch to webkit -> switch to emacs ....

[yqu212]

If there are any keyboard input, I can see the cursor on a blank emacs webkit buffer and webkit flickers at the same time. So I agree with @tumashu that the flickering is about focus.

[akirakyle]

Let's move this discussion on the flickering to #18 since it looks like the original bug for this issue is fixed. I just posted an update on the flickering issue there.

[tumashu]

good idea
