Indeed, this seems to be a problem. I have made a Bugzilla entry for it: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=20340 We should continue discussion of the bug there. Thanks for pointing it out. We should have noticed this subtlety when we added SegmentedVector. Cameron

Do you have more details on your code coverage tests? You should also try running them with the tests in LayoutTests/fast/js, because typically all new tests are found there. I would be interesting in seeing what is missing so we can improve test coverage. I haven't had time to look at the tests in WindScorpion, but we aren't necessarily aiming for coverage in our performance tests. There are some things that are rare in real code, and we intentionally do not measure their performance in SunSpider. That being said, there are some gaps in SunSpider, and any attempt to round it out with some more tests is appreciated. You should probably talk to Maciej about that. Cameron

Related to .IN files for CSS
by Javed Rabbani 10 Aug '08

Hello everyone, While going through the Webkit source, I have come across few .IN files that are used to generate files through the Perl script just like IDL files are used to generate bindings for JavaScript. These .IN files are mainly related to CSS. I am not sure what these files are for and why is it necessary to generate corresponding files from them? Thanks. - J R Shah

cross compiling Webkit for MIPS

Hi All, In my last post i was facing some undefined reference issues like "u_char_3_8" for which i have added dependency libraries in libJavaScriptCore.la and after this i did make. The compilation starts but failed at undefined reference "lprintf" and "trunc" for which i tried different things and after this i did make. After long compilation i again got the same errors which i posted in my last post regarding "u_char_3_8" and "lptintf" and "trunc". I am unable to get the reason why after adding the dependency libraries in libJavaScriptCore.la i am getting the same issues again . Is there any other change i have to make or i am doing something worng. Can anybody help me in resolving these issues. thanks Nishit

Webkit failed to build because of lacking hard drive space?
by Huan Truong 08 Aug '08

08 Aug '08

Hi, I received this error message while building WebCore (r35289 and r35625) in Cygwin: 12>Linking... 12>fatal error C1083: Cannot open compiler intermediate file: 'D:\WebKit\WebKitBuild\lib\WebCore.lib': Not enough space And sometimes, it just complained about lacking memory. I don't think that I'm really running out of memory and/or HDD space because when I received that message I had 5Gigs free on each of my C: and D: drive. I had 1.5 Gigs of RAM and 4Gigs swap too. So I don't know what is going on. D:\WebKit\WebKitBuild\lib\WebCore.lib was about 1.5Gigs. I was able to compile WebKit before and I was able to compile WebKit r31872 and a couple of other versions on this machine so I think all of my setup is alright. Another question: Can I disable SVG / XSLT on Windows build to save time building those modules, I don't need them anyway. I don't even need JS. I tried to pass the --no-svg and --no-xslt paramenters on webkit-build but it doesn't seem to have any effect on the Windows build. -- Huan Truong • http://tnhh.info

IDL and JavaScript bindings .. ?
by Javed Rabbani 07 Aug '08

07 Aug '08

Hello Everyone, I am new to Webkit domain. I am initially trying to use Webkit to render a simple html text file with no graphics. I am confused with the IDL files that come with Webkit source. Why is there any need to generate JavaScript bindings via IDL files using Perl scripts. What I want to say is why these binding files are not part of the source? Everyone will be required to generate them on his system through the Perl script. If I am trying to render a plain text message, will I still need to generate these bindings in order to build successfully? Can I somehow skip these files to simplify the usage. Thanks, J R Shah

How to determine the " could cut " status ?
by Andy 06 Aug '08

06 Aug '08

Hi, all, When I select a whole page, I could copy and paste it to other place. But most of the time I select a page, I'm not allowed to cut it since the browser does not permit it. So how could I query the status to determine whether I could copy or cut ? Is there any API method I could use ? Or I should judge it by myself ? Anybody could give a hint ? Thanks so much. Best Regards. Andy
