[Backarrow-devel] skipdownload progress bar fix, needed changes to mozilla.cpp.

[lee b. <lig...@ya...>]

Hello there,
I'm not sure if your still working on this or not, but
I've been fiddling with it.
I checked it out of you sourceforge cvs and tried to
compile but ran into some small problems.
This is how I fixed them.

--------------------------------
First the src/mozilla.cpp file:

line 41 
had #include "history/nsIGlobalHistory.h"
changed to just "nsIGlobalHistory.h"

line 144 
made reference to SetGlobalHistory, which is not
defined in any of my mozilla headers (I did and grep
-r for it and nothing, there is a
SetUseGlobalHistory?).  Anyway, if you just comment
out line 144 nothing bad seems to happen -- history
seems to still work and all.

line 589
had GetBaseURL(), changed it to GetBaseURI().

-------------------------------------
Now, about skipdownload.  The progressbar wasn't
working so I looked at skipdownload.c and had to
change it a bit to work with my wget (it doesn't have
a micro dot style output, and doesn't put square
brackets around it's percent complete output).


file skipdownload.c:

lines 164 and 168:
changed --progress=dot:micro to just --progress=dot

line 197:
changed the find_string(line, "[") to
find_string(line, "%")
then on line 199:
changed 'line + n' to 'line + n - 3' in the scanf
function call.

------------------
That's all, and everything seems be working just fine.
Well sort of.

Saving the page from the File->Save menu option
sometimes works, but not always (yes, I always give a
file name).  Anyone have any ideas? I've been digging
around in the nsIWebBrowserPersist a bit, but to be
honest I haven't tried very hard. (saving pages is not
something I do very often)

It might be nice to send the Save page option to
skipdownload with some recursion options.  I mean, we
are using wget, why not.  gtkwet is nice sample code.

I'm using:
mozilla firefox-0.8+ cvs
gcc3.3
