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

Tue Feb 19 19:32:53 PST 2008

Hi Matt
   Thanks for the suggestion. I just followed the GUI option after
setting both the environment variables. As you suggested, I opened the
WebKit.sln  to build. But at the very first project build, the build is
looking for C:\Program on PATH. It does not make sense to  me. Have I
missed some setting still? Here is my output. ( I am at a worst stage
with option1). Thanks for being patient with me and helping me out.
------ Build started: Project: JavaScriptCoreGenerated, Configuration:
Release Win32 ------

set PATH=%PATH%;%SystemDrive%\cygwin\bin

bash build-generated-files.sh "C:\cygwin\home\satagopa\WebKit"
"C:\cygwin\home\satagopa\WebKit\WebKitLibraries\win"

Can't find c:\Program on PATH.

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\cygwin\bin\bash.EXE' : return code '0x1'

Stop.

JavaScriptCoreGenerated - 2 error(s), 0 warning(s)

Thanks

Don't try to build that way. The easiest way to ensure a proper build is
to use the build-webkit script in WebKitTools/Scripts (see
http://webkit.org/building/build.html for more info on the topic). You
could also set the two environment variables mentioned at
http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/wiki/BuildingOnWindows and open
the WebKit/win/WebKit.vcproj/WebKit.sln file to build from the GUI.

Once you've got a good build, you can always rebuild individual
projects, but building via the script or the GUI is *MUCH* saner.

	Hi Matt
	   Thanks for quickly pointing out the  issue. I have not even
compiled those projects. I looked at the Makefile at the root and it
lists the following modules MODULES = JavaScriptCore JavaScriptGlue
WebCore WebKit WebKitTools 

	I don't see a *.sln file in some of the modules. If I follow the
above module order and compile the solution file wherever it exists,
will it be OK?

	I looked around for  any document that will tell me  the order
in which all the solution files need to be compiled. If one exists, Can
you please point me to that?

	While compiling the JavaSciptCore, I get  some errors now.
Thanks to your suggestion,  I at least  know the issues that I need to
resolve now. Thanks again to you & Brent for the help/hints.

	Thanks
	Jagan S

	There are several projects built before QTMovieWin and one of
those is failing. Look at the build logs for the WTF and JavaScriptCore
projects as your error indicates that JavaScriptCore isn't building
properly.

	Your WebCore error will likely go away once the projects before
it are actually built.

	Also, as Brent alluded to earlier, you may need to remove your
WebKitBuild folder and start from scratch if the errors stem from
generated files.

		Hi Brent

		   I appreciate your help. I installed cygwin tools
fresh on this machine as specified on step #3 of windows section
http://webkit.org/building/tools.html
<http://webkit.org/building/tools.html> .  Is Apple installer different
from this one? 

		I  am looking at the errors in my VStudio output window
and I don't see any errors like missing Platform.h file. Here is the
complete the output for QTMovieWin project where I get this include file
directive error 

		------ Rebuild All started: Project: QTMovieWin,

		Incidentally WebCoreGenerated project is getting
compiled without any errors & warning. There were lot of message on
output window and I am removing them as there is no issue with this
project build. It is tough to understand how this project build is
working fine without any issue.

		------ Rebuild All started: Project: WebCoreGenerated,
Configuration: Release Win32 ------

		WebCoreGenerated - 0 error(s), 0 warning(s)

		Then I see just one error on the output window for
WebCore Project where it is reporting a missing tmp.cpp file. Here is
the complete message from output window ( without any editing) for this
project build

		========== Rebuild All: 1 succeeded, 2 failed, 0 skipped
==========

		If you feel that my issue will be really due to
incompatible cygwin, I will go by your advise to install it using Apple
Installer and try it out again. Can you please point me to the right
place for Apple Installer?

		Thanks

			Hi Jagan,

			You probably encountered an earlier build error.
If things fail early-on in the build, you will get complaints about
missing Platform.h and so forth.

			Make sure you have the Cygwin tools installed
based on the Apple installer.  If you start from an existing Cygwin
installation, you may be missing important tools (like gperf) that are
needed to build.

			Also make sure you have done the full
"update-webkit" to download the Apple libraries and headers you will
need to perform the build.

				Hi Ivan,

				Did you remember to set the environment
variables as shown in "Building from Within Visual Studio"?  You need to
go to "Control Panel\System" settings, select the "Advanced" tab, and
use the "Environment" button to set these values.

				If they are not set, VS can't find the
stuff in the tools directory.

				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,

				Hi Brent,

				Again many thanx for your help.

				Currently I am going through the blogs
and trying to figure out how to setup the environment. Its a bit
confusing to me.

				Hope it is not too much to ask for a
step by step guide to setup the environment for Win. Right now I have
the codes and compiled by using Cygwin. Where should I go next? I have
also downloaded those VS project files for both WebKit and WebCore but
they do not really work.

				Sorry I might sound like a
dummy..........

				Best,
				Ivan

				Note that there is nothing
Cairo-specific about WinLauncher; you can use it to run the
CoreGraphics-style WebKit as well.  This might be a good thing to try
first, to make sure your debugging environment is set up properly, etc. 

				Let me know if you run into any
problems.  Note that you'll need to grab the changes on
http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17300 to get project files that
build Cairo-style.

WinLauncher application I use for testing.
