Dear Webkit Team,

It's been almost 24 hours and no one has replied to my posting.

I would really appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction toward solving this problem.

I see that another posting (http://lists.macosforge.org/pipermail/webkit-dev/2007-June/001940.html) asking for help with Spinneret also went unanswered.  Is there something with Spinneret that I should know about?

Is it politically incorrect to use Spinneret?

Is my question a stupid one that anyone should know the answer to?

Even so, I'd really appreciate some help with this so that I can move my project forward.

Thanks,
Double-D

Dear Webkit Team,

I would like to build Spinneret on windows.  (I need a windows test application for windows other than Safari.exe).

I did see one post that said Spinneret was an outdated test application and implied you shouldn't waste your time on it.  However, I also see there was a code fix recently on 2007-06-18 to fix the Spinneret build against the new Win32 port, so I assume Spinneret is still supported.  Anyway, this seems like a very useful tool.

To build, I simply added the include path: $(WebKitOutputDir)\include\webkit
but, then the build fails at the link step (see error message below)

This looks to me like a very simple problem to fix, but my COM knowledge is not very deep (I think this is a COM issue) so I could use some help.

Can someone please let me know how to resolve this?

Thanks,
Double-D
