Descriptionchromeos: 1st draft of ProxyConfigService for chromeos
what this cl is:
- a REALLY bare skeleton implementation of ProxyConfigService for chromeos (lots of design details remain to be worked out on the chromeos side, but i needed to get something basic up)
- focused on getting chrome part correct, extracting design flow and implementation from linux variant that are relevant to chromeos, e.g.:
- provide access of ProxyConfigService interface on IO thread
- provide methods on UI thread for UI to read/modify proxy config (like linux's GConf notifications on UI thread)
- fetch initial config on UI thread (this is not absolutely necessary for chromeos, 'cos i don't use GConf, but i just follow linux for now)
- however, the class is RefCountedThreadSafe (so that both net::ProxyService and DOMUI can access it), and the code resides in chrome/browser/chromeos dir instead of net/proxy.
- design details are in .h files
- initial config is hardcoded as pac script and loaded as owner (TODO: load this from cros settings persisted on chromeos device)
- this should work like the current chromeos session manager which sets the auto-proxy environment variable in login script to the same pac script
- implement an augmented analogue to net::ProxyConfig to hold actual proxy config and UI settings (e.g. source and readonly attributes)
- backend uses this as the main proxy config, and only converts it to net:::ProxyConfig for network stack on the IO thread in net::ProxyService::GetLatestProxyConfig.
- UI methods also use this structure
- provide methods to get and set configs from UI thread
- UI can use dom_ui->GetProfile()->GetChromeOSProxyConfigServiceImpl() to access these methods on the UI thread
- these methods are by no means final
- i only added them here to verify the design flow that modifications can be made from UI thread and picked up by IO thread.
- david and i will improve or modify them to whatever works best for frontend and backend.
- unittest that tests most functionalities: socks and bypass_rules will be enabled in a later cl.
TODOs after this cl:
- work with UI, load initial config as owner from cros settings
- implement policy mechanism, merge it with owner during initial load and modifications
- persist proxy settings
- etc etc etc
