* js: Simpler and more robust startup procedureBen Harris2023-01-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, we initialised all of the JavaScript event handlers as soon at the DOM was loaded, and then called main() ourselves once the Emscripten runtime was ready. This was slightly dangerous since it depended on none of those event handlers' being called before main(). In practice this was difficult because most of the elements the event handlers were attached to were invisible, but it did limit what event handlers could safely be used. Now, the event handlers are initialised from main(). This makes things work in a sufficiently conventional way that we can just let the Emscripten run-time call main() in its usual way, rather than involving ourselves in the minutiae of Emscripten's startup.
* wasm/js/emscripten: Fix page loading raceIan Jackson2021-04-22
Using a stunt webserver which artificially introduces a 3s delay just before the last line of the HTML output, I have reproduced a uwer-reported loading/startup race bug: Previously the wasm loading was started by the <script> element, synchronously. If the wasm loading is fast, and finishes before the HTML loading, the onRuntimeInitialized event may occur before initPuzzles. But initPuzzles sets up the event handler. Fix this bug, and introduce a new comment containing an argument for the correctness of the new approach. Signed-off-by: Ian Jackson <ijackson@chiark.greenend.org.uk>
