Thanks Artem, that was the problem! I launch the build from windows shell and it builds! :) now I want to test it, launching run-safari, but it doesnt work :( . Debugging the script I see that it is trying to launch a safari.exe command. But I have no safari.exe command in all my system. ¿Have I missed something? Perphaps I have to install safari in order to debug.. I do not know.. Thanks in advance, Eva
Hi, Eva,
qmake knows nothing about cygwin path notation ('/cygdrive/d/...') so it cannot find the file. This problem may be easily workarounded by passing all the paths to qmake in the form of 'd:\...' (requires some modification to webkitdirs.pm script). You may use `cygpath` utility to convert paths.

Hello, I am very new in this, including C++, symbian and webkit. So, apologize for my questions if they are so basic...
I was trying to compile webKit in a Windows XP proffesional. I have installed cygwin and Qt (for qmake command). I have download source code from subversion repository. Then, I access to Scripts directory and execute build-webkit and the result is:
$ webkit/webkittools/scripts/build-webkit --debug Checking mod-date of WebKitSupportLibrary.zip... Current WebKitSupportLibrary is up to date Calling 'qmake -r OUTPUT_DIR=/cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKitBuild/Debug CONFIG+=qt-port /cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKit.pro CONFIG-=release CO NFIG+=debug' in /cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKitBuild/Debug ...
Cannot find file: \cygdrive\d\webkit\WebKit.pro. Failed to setup build environment using qmake!
But indeed the file exists!!
$ ls /cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKit.pro /cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKit.pro
¿What's the matter? .. By the way, I have not installed Visual C++ 2005 Express because I would like to use Carbide C++ ... ¿Is this possible?
Thank you very much, Eva
