nsIXPCScriptable flags handling in xpc_map_end.h is a bit of a mess.
- Half the flags relate to whether various functions are defined (PreCreate,
GetProperty, etc). These are set using the XPC_MAP_WANT_* macros;
for each one xpc_map_end.h inserts the corresponding flag using the
preprocessor (see XPC_MAP_CLASSNAME::GetScriptableFlags()).
- The other half of the flags relate to other things (IS_GLOBAL_OBJECT,
DONT_REFLECT_INTERFACE_NAMES, etc). These are set using the XPC_MAP_FLAGS
macro.
Having two similar but different mechanisms to set the flags for a class is
confusing. (Indeed, until recently we had some classes where a single flag was
redundantly specified via both mechanisms.) Note also that the classes done in
dom/base/nsIDOMClassInfo.h also specify all the flags in a single value,
similar to how XPC_MAP_FLAGS works.
This patch removes the XPC_MAP_WANT_* macros. All flags are now set
via XPC_MAP_FLAGS. This is a significant simplification to xpc_map_end.h and
all the places that use it.
The downside of this change is that I had to change the flag constants from
class constants (i.e. nsIXPCScriptable::FOO) to macros (i.e.
NSIXPCSCRIPTABLE_FOO) because they need to be used in #if statements like this
in xpc_map_end.h:
#if !((XPC_MAP_FLAGS) & NSIXPCSCRIPTABLE_WANT_PRECREATE)
and you can't use a '::'-qualified name inside a #if. I think this downside is
outweighed by the simplification described above.
Overall the patch removes 80 lines of code.
I'd like to remove XPC_MAP_WANT_* altogether and use XPC_MAP_FLAGS for all the
nsIXPCScriptable flag setting, but I haven't worked out how to handle the
method definitions in xpc_map_end.h yet. In the meantime, it seems good to make
the flag setting more consistent and explicit.
In particular, the three "Module" classes have "#define XPC_MAP_WANT_CALL" and
"#define XPC_MAP_FLAGS nsIXPCScriptable::WANT_CALL" which both have the same
effect. The patch removes the latter, to make them consistent with other
classes.
This removes the unnecessary setting of c-basic-offset from all
python-mode files.
This was automatically generated using
perl -pi -e 's/; *c-basic-offset: *[0-9]+//'
... on the affected files.
The bulk of these files are moz.build files but there a few others as
well.
MozReview-Commit-ID: 2pPf3DEiZqx
The patch removes 455 occurrences of FAIL_ON_WARNINGS from moz.build files, and
adds 78 instances of ALLOW_COMPILER_WARNINGS. About half of those 78 are in
code we control and which should be removable with a little effort.

The -*- file variable lines -*- establish per-file settings that Emacs will
pick up. This patch makes the following changes to those lines (and touches
nothing else):
- Never set the buffer's mode.
Years ago, Emacs did not have a good JavaScript mode, so it made sense
to use Java or C++ mode in .js files. However, Emacs has had js-mode for
years now; it's perfectly serviceable, and is available and enabled by
default in all major Emacs packagings.
Selecting a mode in the -*- file variable line -*- is almost always the
wrong thing to do anyway. It overrides Emacs's default choice, which is
(now) reasonable; and even worse, it overrides settings the user might
have made in their '.emacs' file for that file extension. It's only
useful when there's something specific about that particular file that
makes a particular mode appropriate.
- Correctly propagate settings that establish the correct indentation
level for this file: c-basic-offset and js2-basic-offset should be
js-indent-level. Whatever value they're given should be preserved;
different parts of our tree use different indentation styles.
- We don't use tabs in Mozilla JS code. Always set indent-tabs-mode: nil.
Remove tab-width: settings, at least in files that don't contain tab
characters.
- Remove js2-mode settings that belong in the user's .emacs file, like
js2-skip-preprocessor-directives.
