[webkit-dev] Help needed. WebKit with Windows XP

[Brent Fulgham]

If you've got things set up to build the stock WebKit, you might first  
want to see if you can get the WinLauncher to work.  If so, you can  
feel a bit safer taking the next step.

To build with Cairo, you need additional libraries (see http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/wiki/BuildingCairoOnWindows 
  for some details).

You will need to place the libraries someplace (e.g., c: 
\build_requirements) and update the Visual Studio build environment to  
look there.

I think I called my project file "WebCore.vcproj.cairo"; obviously,  
you will want to rename this to just "WebCore.vcproj" for the solution  
to find it.

Hope that helps,

-Brent
