766527 - move idn code to its own directory, netwerk/dns/idn

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Core :: Networking: DNS, defect)

Description

Attachment: fix v1.0

I'd like to move the idn code to its own directory. I'm planning to add quite a bit of code to the netwerk/dns dir and I'd like it to be more cleanly separated. Also, names like nsIIDNService vs. nsIDNSService are very hard to deal with because they are so similar.

fix v1.0

Instead of adding a new Makefile, could you just prefix the source files with idn/ in the existing Makefile? (I understand the desire for logical separation of code, but more makefiles = a slower build.)

That's fine with me. I'll make a new patch.

I'm having trouble using the same makefile - specifically, I can't figure out how to reference the idl files in a sub-directory and have them be processed correctly.

I don't see any of the idn .cpp/.h files moved by this patch? Did I miss something?  Also, please make sure to use "hg copy" to move them, or we'll lose hg history.

I think you missed something. I see the cpp/h files hg copied in the patch.

Ah, right--they're in the patch, but don't show up in Bugzilla in either splinter or regular "view patch" mode.   Good to know about that Bugzilla shortcoming...

I still want this done but it's a huge pain and I'm not planning to spend any more time on it.
