[dmichael (off chromium), 2011/07/01 20:04:19]

Just for my own edification... Why this limitation?

+   *
+   * By default, no input events are delivered. Call this function with the
+   * classes of events you are interested in to have them be delivered to
+   * the instance. Calling this function will override any previous setting for
+   * each specified class of input events (for example, if you previously
+   * called RequestFilteringInputEvents(), this function will set those events
+   * to non-filtering mode).
+   *
+   * Input events may have high overhead, so you should only request input
+   * events that your plugin will actually handle. For example, the browser may
+   * do optimizations for scroll or touch events that can be processed
+   * substantially faster if it knows there are no non-default receivers for
+   * that message. Requesting that such messages be delivered, even if they are
+   * processed very quickly, may have a noticable effect on the performance of
+   * the page.
+   *
+   * When requesting input events through this function, the events will be
+   * delivered and <i>not</i> bubbled to the page. This means that even if you
+   * aren't interested in the message, no other parts of the page will get
+   * a crack at the message.
+   *
+   * Example:
+   *   RequestInputEvents(instance, PP_INPUTEVENT_CLASS_MOUSE);
+   *   RequestFilteringInputEvents(instance,
+   *       PP_INPUTEVENT_CLASS_WHEEL | PP_INPUTEVENT_CLASS_KEYBOARD);
+   *
+   * @param instance The <code>PP_Instance</code> of the instance requesting
+   * the given events.
+   *
+   * @param event_classes A combination of flags from PP_InputEvent_Class that
+   * identifies the classes of events the instance is requesting. The flags
+   * are combined by logically ORing their values.
+   *
+   * @return PP_OK if the operation succeeded, PP_ERROR_BADARGUMENT if instance
+   * is invalid, or PP_ERROR_NOTSUPPORTED if one of the event class bits were
+   * illegal. In the case of an invalid bit, all valid bits will be applied
+   * and only the illegal bits will be ignored. The most common cause of a
+   * PP_ERROR_NOTSUPPORTED return value is requesting keyboard events, these
+   * must use RequestFilteringInputEvents().
+   */

+   * to the DOM. In this case, register for those classes of events using
+   * this function instead of RequestInputEvents(). Keyboard events must always
+   * be registered in filtering mode.
+   *
+   * Filtering input events requires significantly more overhead than just
+   * delivering them to the instance. As such, you should only request
+   * filtering in those cases where it's absolutely necessary. The reason is
+   * that it requires the browser to stop and block for the instance to handle

Retracted.  I think you just need to update the comment to take out the sentence
about floating point units.

[brettw, 2011/07/01 21:14:52]

Yeah. We get ints and all current plugins expect ints and do annoying casting to
get the ints back from the floats.

Now that we can rev the interface, if we support high resolution devices, we can
add a separate high res position getter.

i'm a little worried that this interface is going to grow quite large and messy
once we add things like touch, ime, and game controller input in the future.  it
feels like we might be better served by creating separate interfaces for each
input event class.  i know that means more interface juggling and casting, but
it feels more scalable.

[brettw, 2011/07/01 17:59:36]

What do you imagine the C++ API looking like?

[darin (slow to review), 2011/07/01 18:06:24]

It could look like this:

switch (event.GetEventType()) {
  case PP_INPUTEVENT_TYPE_MOUSEDOWN:
    const MouseEvent mouse_event(event);
    // read properties from mouse_event
    break:

Since InputEvent is really just a container around a PP_Resource, it
is cheap to copy it.  We could make MouseEvent extend from InputEvent,
and have no other member variables.  The constructor could assert that
the given InputEvent is a mouse class event causing a debug build to
trip over the error.  In release builds, the only protection would be
at the PPB_MouseEvent interface, where it would assert that the given
event type is a mouse class event.

[dmichael (off chromium), 2011/07/01 20:04:19]

The return here could reasonably char[5] like the old one, right?  That may be
somewhat more efficient than having to do VarToUTF8, which will require a map
lookup and so probably some locking in the multithreaded case.
