Refactor Semantics in preparation for ARC migration #52729

jmagman · 2024-05-11T00:59:10Z

Split the too-large Semantics MRC to ARC migration into two PRs: this one, which refactors, and the next which will actually do the migration.

Use properties instead of their backing ivars (except in the usual init, dealloc, getters/setters)
For Foundation collections prefer copy over strong.
Dot notation for properties
Change privateSetParent: to instead use a readwrite property in SemanticsObject ().
Switch the semanticsObject property from weak to retain to get the synthesized property (keeping it as weak is a compilation error in MRC) but I'll swap it back to a weak in the ARC migration PR coming next.
SemanticsObjectTest fails on my machine and passes on CI. Switched the cleaner CGRectEqualToRect (and related) checks to instead assert x, y, width, height so we can see the value when it fails:

((CGSizeEqualToSize( scrollView.contentSize, CGSizeMake((w + scrollExtentMax) * effectivelyScale, h * effectivelyScale))) is true) failed

becomes:

((scrollView.contentSize.height) equal to (h * effectivelyScale)) failed: ("33.3333333333") is not equal to ("33.333336")

Use XCTAssertEqualWithAccuracy now that I can see it's a floating point precision issue.

+@property(nonatomic, assign) SemanticsObject* semanticsObject;


Made this assign to get the property synthesis. I'm going to change it back to weak when I do the ARC migration, which allows weak property synthesis. This header isn't public.

oh wow i didn't know they have weak support in MRC.

Made this assign to get the property synthesis
So weak in MRC doesn't synthesize the getter/setter/ivar?

Swap privateSetParent: to a readwrite property.

nit: readwrite is already the default

this will change to weak in arc right?

Yes, I will make it weak in the ARC migration PR.

I was making the readwrite explicit since it's now overriding a readonly in the header:

@property(nonatomic, assign, readonly) SemanticsObject* parent;

 @end

 @implementation SemanticsObjectContainer {
-  SemanticsObject* _semanticsObject;


This backing ivar isn't when I swap from weak to assign. I included it here because when I migrate to ARC this isn't needed since the weak ARC property is auto-synthesized.

I love to see all this modernization! LGTM!

Just some extremely optional comments.

shell/platform/darwin/ios/framework/Source/SemanticsObject.mm

  [_childrenInHitTestOrder release];

  _parent = nil;
-  _container.get().semanticsObject = nil;


Just to make sure I'm reading the other code correctly: this is safe to remove because semantics object was changed to weak at some point, right, and thus we don't need to explicitly clear it any more?

That's how I read it too, I don't think weak property would need to be set to nil in MRC?

I see this comment where it was introduced:
https://github.com/flutter/engine/pull/7244/files#r259211775

But I don't see why it would be needed...

  [_children release];
  [_childrenInHitTestOrder release];

  _parent = nil;


Is this here for the same reason as the awful _inDealloc workaround? In theory it shouldn't be necessary.

The _inDealloc workaround was done in #27786, which didn't include setting _parent to nil.

Setting _parent to nil was done in #4602 and I think it was for this guard:

engine/shell/platform/darwin/ios/framework/Source/SemanticsObject.mm

Lines 709 to 714 in b4b798d

if ([self parent] == nil) {

// This can happen when we have released the accessibility tree but iOS is

// still holding onto our objects. iOS can take some time before it

// realizes that the tree has changed.

return nil;

}

I don't like this but it seems like iOS is, or at least was, digging around the accessibilityContainer type methods during -[super dealloc] which was causing crashes. I'd rather not touch that for this refactor.

shell/platform/darwin/ios/framework/Source/SemanticsObject.mm

-    [child privateSetParent:nil];
+    child.parent = nil;
  }
  [_children removeAllObjects];


Can we remove this too? Hopefully we don't have code that is relying on the contents of an array that came from a since-deallocated object changing out from under it...

I'll remove it in the ARC migration.
