  30  * nsView's serve two main purposes: 1) a bridge between nsIFrame's and
  31  * nsIWidget's, 2) linking the frame tree of a(n) (in-process) subdocument with
  32  * its parent document frame tree. Historically views were used for more things,
  33  * but their role has been reduced, and could be reduced to nothing in the
  34  * future (bug 337801 tracks removing views). Views are generally associated
  35  * with a frame. A view that does not have a frame is called an anonymous view.
  36  * Some frames also have associated widgets (think os level windows). If a frame
  37  * has a widget it must also have a view, but not all frames with views will
  38  * have widgets.
  39  *
  40  * Only five types of frames can have a view: root frames (ViewportFrame),
  41  * subdocument frames (nsSubDocumentFrame), plugin frames (nsPluginFrame),
  42  * menu popup frames (nsMenuPopupFrame), and list control frames
  43  * (nsListControlFrame). Root frames and subdocument frames have views to link
  44  * the two documents together (the frame trees do not link up otherwise).
  45  * Plugin frames, menu popup frames, and list control frames have views because
  46  * they (sometimes) need to create widgets (although plugins with widgets might
  47  * be going away/gone?). Menu popup frames handles xul popups, which is anything
  48  * where we need content to go over top the main window at an os level. List
  49  * control frames handle select popups/dropdowns in non-e10s mode.
  50  *
  51  * The term "root view" refers to the root view of a document. Just like root
  52  * frames, root views can have parent views. Only the root view of the root
  53  * document in the process will not have a parent.
  54  *
  55  * All views are created by their frames except root views. Root views are
  56  * special. Root views are created in nsDocumentViewer::MakeWindow before the
  57  * root frame is created, so the root view will not have a frame very early in
  58  * document creation.
  59  *
  60  * Subdocument frames and plugin frames have an anonymous (no frame associated
  61  * with it) inner view that is a child of their "outer" view. On a plugin frame
  62  * with a widget the inner view would be associated with the widget (as opposed
  63  * to the outer view).
  64  *
  65  * On a subdocument frame the inner view serves as the parent of the
  66  * root view of the subdocument. The outer and inner view of the subdocument
  67  * frame belong to the subdocument frame and hence to the parent document. The
  68  * root view of the subdocument belongs to the subdocument.
  69  * nsLayoutUtils::GetCrossDocParentFrame and nsPresContext::GetParentPresContext
  70  * depend on this view structure and are the main way that we traverse across
  71  * the document boundary in layout.
  72  *
  73  * When the load of a new document is started in the subdocument, the creation
  74  * of the new subdocument and destruction of the old subdocument are not
  75  * linked. (This creation and destruction is handled in nsDocumentViewer.cpp.)
  76  * This means that the old and new document will both exist at the same time
  77  * during the loading of the new document. During this period the inner view of
  78  * the subdocument parent will be the parent of two root views. This means that
  79  * during this period there is a choice for which subdocument we draw,
  80  * nsSubDocumentFrame::GetSubdocumentPresShellForPainting is what makes that
  81  * choice. Note that this might not be a totally free choice, ie there might be
  82  * hidden dependencies and bugs if the way we choose is changed.
  83  *
  84  * One thing that is special about the root view of a chrome window is that
  85  * instead of creating a widget for the view, they can "attach" to the
  86  * existing widget that was created by appshell code or something else. (see
  87  * nsDocumentViewer::ShouldAttachToTopLevel)
