Created attachment 457196 [details] Patch

(In reply to Zan Dobersek (Reviews) from comment #2) > Created attachment 457196 [details] > Patch This works as intended when going through StreamServerConnection::sendSyncReply(), but not for sync messages on a basic Connection.

Created attachment 457204 [details] Patch Now includes the same magic for Connection-based reply sending.

Comment on attachment 457204 [details] Patch View in context: https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=457204&action=review good stuff. I'm not 100% sure if my suggestions all make sense, but maybe some simplification of the templates could be possible still.

Comment on attachment 457204 [details] Patch This is looks very good but marking as r- just for Zan to see if it's possible to simplify the templates. Another suggestion: In case it's not useful to add the CompletionHandler::InTuple and a new template is used: When doing the template for getting the CompletionHandler arguments as tuple, you could see if you can make the template match "something that is invokable" instead of "something that is a CompletionHandler". This way it would be more re-usable. std::invoke_result can extract the result type out of the "something that's invokable".

I think I can check/enforce the void return type in the template specialization, i.e. not bother with the Result type either in the specialization or here. >> Source/WebKit/Platform/IPC/StreamServerConnection.h:146 >> + (encoder.get() << ... << std::forward<Arguments>(arguments)); > > .. as the same object may be accessed here. > > There's no optimization opportunities above, as the objects are by nature of "data" kind, as the stream is just a blob of memory. Ugh, my bad.

I would enforce detecting a CompletionHandler object since the implementation of it tests that the invocation was done exactly once, as would be required for an IPC reply. CompletionHandler itself is a wrapper around any callable object, so I would just leave to it to handle everything, and place type aliases on the class to more easily access the return and parameter types.

Mmmmm, maybe this was already fixed? It's working fine for me now, but I didn't do a clean build, so it's not an incremental build issue. Odd. Whatever.
