59560 - store line numbers with css style rules

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: CSS Parsing and Computation, defect, P3)

Description

[Joe Hewitt (gone)]

It would be very handy information for css debugging tools to be able to
retrieve the line number at which a css style rule was read from in it's source
file.  David Baron has already written code to store this information.  I've
simply changed his code so that it is not #ifdef'd out, and is permanent in the
API, as well as adding public methods to nsICSSStyleRule for getting and setting
the line number.

I'll attach the patch for this in a moment, but first a few notes on it.  The
changes I made to dbaron's code were simply to take out from his #ifdef blocks
all things related to line number, but I didn't take out the code for storing
column number or file uri.  His "CSS_REPORT_PARSE_ERRORS" should still work in
full when turned on.

I apologize for this, but the patch is convoluted with another fix for bug
#52381 which overlaps some files.  You may just want to test them both out at
once.  I'm too lazy to separate them and make 2 patches, and I don't think it
will matter much.

Netscape's standard compliance QA team reorganised itself once again, so taking 
remaining non-tables style bugs. Sorry about the spam. I tried to get this done 
directly at the database level, but apparently that is "not easy because of the 
shadow db", "plus it screws up the audit trail", so no can do...

This got fixed when 52381 got fixed.
