I'm not happy with the code organization here. XMLTokenizer now has tons of ifdefs and two separate implementations. It's fine to have a QXmlStream implementation, but the two implementations should be in separate files, side by side, as we do in the platform layer. Or the XML parser should be abstracted out so we have a single XMLTokenizer built on a single parser abstraction. I think this is also the type of patch that should be reviewed by at least one person other than the folks concentrating on the Qt port. With the huge number of check-ins today, I'm sure there are other interesting things like this that I missed. -- Darin

type of JSChar
by Simon Hausmann 09 Aug '07

09 Aug '07

Hi, during our work on making the Qt port of WebKit compile on Windows with MSVC and MingW g++ we ran into the following code in JavaScriptCore/API/JSStringRef.h: ... #if !defined(WIN32) && !defined(_WIN32) typedef unsigned short JSChar; #else typedef wchar_t JSChar; #endif ... JSChar being defined as wchar_t caused compiles problems for us inside WebCore itself when converting from JSChar to UChar. For now we added a || defined(__BUILDING_QT) to the condition, but we're wondering why JSChar is defined as wchar_t on Windows in the first place. We ran into this problem only when compiling with g++, MSVC seems to silently convert wchar_t to unsigned short. Unfortunately the svn history does not provide anything regard this #ifdef since it was added to the svn repository. Does anybody know/remember why JSChar is defined to wchar_t on Windows and if it is still needed? Simon

Build Webkit on Windows

Hi, I have tried to build webkit on Windows and have no luck so far.

AtMail 5.x and Safari
by Joe Auty 01 Aug '07

01 Aug '07

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, AtMail supports multiple interfaces - an interface designed for IE based browsers, an interface for Gecko/XUL based browsers that serves XML 1.0, and a catch-all simple interface for all other browsers. The simple interface is unfortunately the only interface currently supported under Safari. Apparently the developers are working on adding Safari advanced interface support, but in the meantime I was sort of curious as to what the technical hurdles may have been with supporting Safari? Does Safari have some issues with parsing XML documents that Gecko is capable of handling? AtMail will not work with the advanced IE interface either since IE seems to rely VBScript when used in conjunction with this product. No big surprise there... This lack of compatibility is apparent under both Safari 2.x and 3 beta. - -- Joe Auty UITS Messaging Indiana University jauty(a)indiana.edu -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGr7C6IGoilq3QRWsRAq0BAKC+nQBV7wij0vXJVU5Z1lmP7d7C8ACfUQY6 mcoZK/L7+FAuBPalmvE7b4g= =qDlS -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Different ways to build WebKit on Windows
by Artem Ananiev 31 Jul '07

31 Jul '07

Hi, all, currently WebKit is built on Windows platform using Visual Studio solution file: $(WebKitDir)/WebKit/win/WebKit.vcproj/WebKit.sln However, sometimes it's not easy to deal with .sln or .vcproj files, so the question is: is it possible to to build WebKit on Windows platform using, for example, Makefiles? If the solution above is generated with qmake, it should be possible to generate the corresponding Makefiles using the same qmake. Unfortunately, I'm not an expert in qmake and don't know if it is possible. Thanks, Artem

Re: [webkit-dev] Question to the Adobe ApolloWebKit developers, tips and tricks to getting your "branch" to compile.
by Fuenty, Chris 30 Jul '07

30 Jul '07

Allright, I'm out of town right now, but should be back in a few hours. If I'm not sleeping by then, rather tired :(, I'm going to check back on this list post. I've been working with the apollo projects in the M4 directory as Chris' post has described. With JSCore, there was a bit of altering some files and moving some stuff around, to get it to compile. Nothing major, just a bit of troubleshooting, mainly in the hash values (.lut.h files) and the bison-grammar generation. With a basic C++ knowledgebase I have I have got it to compile without error. WebKit compiled right out of the box. No issues there Going on to compile WebKit, I have ran into a few issues, mainly with the unresolved externals in WebCore and JavaScript Core libs. I'll post a list of them when I get back, but from what I have looked at they seem to have a similar function naming convention, and look like there coming from another library, not WebCore/JSCore. Is there any other libraries (the libxml, or any other of the libs pulled down from the inet from ./install-win-extras) that I need to link upon? Also, regarding some changes I have found in WebKit, Does it support plugins? I briefly looked through some files that seem to be directly related, but haven't eximaned the sources of them to see whether or not they are complete. While I'm at it, might as well ask. Keep me informed. Thanks --Z

Target Compilation problem in S60Webkit R21772
by Gurpreet Singh 30 Jul '07

30 Jul '07

Hi, My environment is S60 Webkit trunk (r21772), S60_3rd SDK, Carbide.c++ 1.2 Express I compiled webkit/reindeer and it runs fine in the emulator. But compilation on target is a big problem. Even there is an open Bug for that. But is there somebody(some angel), who has successfully compiled S60 Webkit on target. I mean, copiled, downloaded and run on Target. After weeks of efforts, I'm able to compile and download on my N80, but Reindeer doesn't run. I gives so many error. Any kind of help is appreciated. Thanks!!!

S60: Scriptable browser plugins
by Volker Voecking 30 Jul '07

30 Jul '07

Hi, My environment is S60 Webkit trunk (r21772), S60_3rd SDK, Carbide.c++ 1.2 Express I compiled webkit/reindeer and it runs fine in the emulator. Looking a bit closer at the NPBitmap sample plugin and the source code of the S60 webkit port brings up the following question: Does the S60 WebKit port support scriptable browser plugins? If so, how does the Javascript binding work? Is it based on the Netscape Plugin API (NPClass; NPNHasMethod(); NPNInvoke()... )? >From the NPBitmap sample plugin that is included in the S60_3rd SDK it seems that some S60 proprietary mechanism (Ecom-Plugin) is used for the interaction between browser and plugin. Is it possible e.g. to call a method or get/set a property of such an Ecom-Plugin from Javascript? Thanks, Volker

Question to the Adobe ApolloWebKit developers, tips and tricks to getting your "branch" to compile.
by Fuenty, Chris 27 Jul '07

27 Jul '07

First off, I know you guys don't claim your version of WebKit you are working with is a branch, I just used it for lack of a better term :P. Anyway, I have the latest P4 branch out of perforce. What's your guy's tips and tricks to get it to compile right-out-of-the-box? Is there a certain reversion I need to use (Sorry, not sure if you have those in perforce, I'm struggling trying to understand how P4 works)? I'm running into errors mainly in TemporaryLinkStubs.cpp. Most of those from what I can read out of some compile logs, are allready implemented in other classes. I'm not very proficent in C++ (Please forgive me, If I was, I'd love to help out). Lastly, I do get a lot of unresolved external errors upon linking. I don't know what all I need to do to get all of this working, so if an adobe dev could possiably help me out, that would be great. --Z
