I'm attempting to build a browser with a url bar. The URL bar needs to reflect any navigational changes in the browser, and the docs recommend the use of navigation-policy-decision-requested; the callback takes 5 params, with types WebkitWebView, WebKitWebFrame, WebKitNetworkRequest, WebKitNavigationAction, webKitPolicyDecision, and gpointer.
When I try to compile, I get several errors of the variant "error: unknown type name ". This happens to all of the ones listed, except WebkitWebView. I know I included webkit2.h. I know I tried explicitly defining, by initializing a WebKitWebFrame, for example, but all it did was create more errors. Are the types not already defined? Or do I have to define them myself?
EDIT: My Wifi connection was really weak on the computer I was testing on before, so I was unable to provide code or compile output. Sorry.
main.c
static void uriUpdateCb(WebKitWebView* web_view, WebKitWebFrame* frame, WebkitNetworkRequest* request, WebkitWebNavigationAction* navigation_action, WebkitWebPolicyDecision* policy_decision, gpointer user_data){
const gchar* uri = webkit_network_request_get_uri(request);
char* file_type = strchr(uri, '.');
if(file_type && (!strcmp(file_type, ".pdf") || !strcmp(file_type, ".db") || !strcmp(file_type, ".exe") || !strcmp(file_type, ".deb") || !strcmp(file_type, ".rpm") || !strcmp(file_type, ".dmg"))){
// note to self: replace above if statement with a loop and a file that contains these extensions
webkit_web_policy_decision_download(policy_decision);
}
else{
webkit_web_policy_decision_use(policy_decision);
gtk_entry_set_text(user_data, uri);
}
}
window.h (controls webkitWebview)
g_signal_connect(webView, "navigation-policy-decision-requested", G_CALLBACK(uriUpdateCb), url_bar);
callbacks.h (definition)
