Hi Mark,

Thanks for the hint ;-)

I have updated my WebKit trunk to 34935 and attempted to build the  
target again.  The build failed and a summary of what happened is  
listed below:

1) === BUILDING AGGREGATE TARGET Derived Sources OF PROJECT  
JavaScriptCore WITH CONFIGURATION Release ===
2) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET JavaScriptCore OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore  
WITH CONFIGURATION Release ===
3) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET minidom OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore WITH  
CONFIGURATION Release ===
4) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET jsc OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore WITH  
CONFIGURATION Release ===
5) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET testapi OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore WITH  
CONFIGURATION Release ===
6) === BUILDING AGGREGATE TARGET All OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore WITH  
CONFIGURATION Release ===

Checking Dependencies...
** BUILD SUCCEEDED **

7) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET JavaScriptGlue OF PROJECT JavaScriptGlue  
WITH CONFIGURATION Release ===
8) === BUILDING AGGREGATE TARGET Derived Sources OF PROJECT  
JavaScriptCore WITH CONFIGURATION Release ===
9) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET JavaScriptCore OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore  
WITH CONFIGURATION Release ===
10) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET minidom OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore WITH  
CONFIGURATION Release ===
11) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET jsc OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore WITH  
CONFIGURATION Release ===
12) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET testapi OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore WITH  
CONFIGURATION Release ===
13) === BUILDING AGGREGATE TARGET All OF PROJECT JavaScriptCore WITH  
CONFIGURATION Release ===

Checking Dependencies...
** BUILD SUCCEEDED **

14) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET JavaScriptGlue OF PROJECT  
JavaScriptGlue WITH CONFIGURATION Release ===
15) === BUILDING NATIVE TARGET testjsglue OF PROJECT JavaScriptGlue  
WITH CONFIGURATION Release ===
Checking Dependencies...

16) === BUILDING AGGREGATE TARGET All OF PROJECT JavaScriptGlue WITH  
CONFIGURATION Release ===

Checking Dependencies...
** BUILD FAILED **


The following build commands failed:
JavaScriptGlue:
	CopyStringsFile /Users/samueljd/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Release/ 
JavaScriptGlue.framework/Versions/A/Resources/English.lproj/ 
InfoPlist.strings English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
(1 failure)


It appears that the target failed to be built while attempting to  
execute the command "CopyStringsFile"  while building the  
JavaScripGlue sub-project.

Do you know what the problem could be ?

Or, is there anyone who could give me a hint of what to try next ?

- Sam
