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.
This sounds like <https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=19743>, which was just fixed yesterday in r35629.
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.
I think you're right that those options have no effect on Windows. Would you mind filing a bug at bugs.webkit.org? You should be able to disable these features by modifying WebCore/ WebCore.vcproj/WebCore.vcproj and WebCore/WebCore.vcproj/build- generated-files.sh. There might be some other places you have to change as well. Grepping for ENABLE_SVG and ENABLE_XSLT should show you the places you have to modify (those macros need to be set to 0 or undefined to disable SVG/XSLT support, respectively). -Adam
