Comment on attachment 217506 [details] checkpoing nsUICommandCollector.cpp A few comments on the parts of this that don't pertain to whitelisting (since that will be replaced by hashing): >NS_IMETHODIMP >nsUICommandCollector::Observe(nsISupports *subject, > const char *topic, > const PRUnichar *data) >{ > nsCOMPtr<nsIDOMEventTarget> window; > > if (strcmp(topic, "toplevel-window-ready") == 0) { > // Attach a capturing command listener to the window > window = do_QueryInterface(subject); Move the declaration of "window" into this scope. > NS_ENSURE_STATE(window); > > nsresult rv = window->AddEventListener(NS_LITERAL_STRING("command"), > this, > PR_TRUE); > NS_ENSURE_SUCCESS(rv, rv); > > return rv; Just fall through to the return NS_OK. > } > > return NS_OK; >} > >NS_IMETHODIMP >nsUICommandCollector::HandleEvent(nsIDOMEvent* aEvent) >{ > // First check that this is an event type that we expect > nsAutoString type; > nsresult rv = aEvent->GetType(type); > if (type != NS_LITERAL_STRING("command")) { > >#ifdef PR_LOGGING > MS_LOG(("UICommandCollector: Unexpected event type %s received", > type.get())); This probably doesn't work, you need to convert the string to UTF-8 before it can be logged. > // Get the Original Target id - this is the target after text node > // retargeting.

Same applies to some other places where you're really just interested in whether the result is null. > // Get the target id - this is the target after all retargeting. > // We only really use this if the original target is anonymous content. > // In that case, since anonymous content doesn't have an id, we identify > // the target by that target id + the anonid of the anonymous content > nsCOMPtr<nsIDOMEvent> domEvent = do_QueryInterface(nsEvent, &rv); > NS_ENSURE_SUCCESS(rv, rv); You can just use aEvent here, can't you? > // Get the window that this target is in, so that we can log the event > // with the appropriate window id. > nsCOMPtr<nsIDOMNode> targetNode = do_QueryInterface(target, &rv); > NS_ENSURE_SUCCESS(rv, rv); It's theoretically possible that the event target is not a node. In particular, this could happen if the target of the event was 'document' or 'window'. If that happens, I'm not sure this method should really return "failure" (remember that's equivalent to throwing)... unusual extensions could do something like this. > // Actually log it > nsMetricsService *ms = nsMetricsService::get(); > NS_ENSURE_STATE(ms); > rv = ms->LogEvent(NS_LITERAL_STRING("ui"), properties); > I'd check for success here, then your logging statement actually indicates success. >#ifdef PR_LOGGING > MS_LOG(("Successfully logged UI Event")); >#endif > > return rv; And then just change this to return NS_OK.

Small correction: 'document' is a DOMNode. 'window' isn't.
Attached patch updated UI collector (obsolete) (deleted) — Splinter Review
Updated per bryner's comments. Also ripped out whitelisting, in favor of hashing target IDs. Also updated to build as a standalone extension.

You want: NS_ConvertUTF16toUTF8(type).get() because you want the final result to be a const char*. It's kind of unfortunate that what you have compiles. Also, you don't need to #ifdef it -- MS_LOG() is defined to empty if PR_LOGGING is turned off.

Can't > you just always log the id the same way, and then also log the anonid if you > need to? Actually the kind of id we log is different depending on whether we're logging anonid or not. First we try to log the _Original_ Target ID (target after text retargeting only) - if that is empty we log the Target ID (target after all retargeting) plus the anonid. In that second case we need the target ID to distinguish between the same anonid used under different targets. I've updated the comments to make this more clear. (Note that I'm copying Original Target and Target terminology from the API :-)) > >+ // Actually log it > >+ rv = ms->LogEvent(NS_LITERAL_STRING("ui"), properties); > > The event name should be uielement. > updated id to be targetidhash and anonid to be targetanonidhash as well I have updated the patch according to all of your other comments

Attached patch updated patch (deleted) — Splinter Review
Updated to only ever log target id, since original target id = target id for content that is not anonymous. Also added OnAttach, as per offline discussion.

(In reply to comment #14) > It seems like we should call OnAttach before we put the collector into the hash > table, and not insert it if OnAttach failed. Actually, I changed my mind on this. For consistency, with onDetach/onNewLog, we should just treat this as a notification, not a chance for the collector to cancel itself.
Ok, checked in on trunk and branch. I fixed a few other small things I should have caught in the review, hope that's ok. Here's a list: - removed now-unused nsUICommandCollector::sInstance - removed unused Init() declarations from nsUICommandCollector.h and nsWindowCollector.h - removed unneeded #include nsBaseHashtable.h in nsUICommandCollector.h - changed argument names to uniformly not be prefixed with "a" for consistency with the rest of the extension - got rid of the temporary "windows" variable in nsUICommandCollector::OnDetach, it's more readable to just call ms->WindowMap().EnumerateRead(...)
