[webkit-dev] waf build patches

[Kevin Ollivier]

Hi all,

Well, I've finally submitted the patches for building wxWebKit using  
waf. They're available from here:

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=27619

I've tried to keep the patches how you guys like them - under 5KB  
each. ;-) There's only 6, with one being about 20KB but that can be  
broken up too if requested. (Though they're basically helper scripts  
so I suspect they just need a look over.) If I could get some quick  
reviews on these, it'd be really appreciated as trunk simply doesn't  
build for wx right now, and although I have a git branch that still  
builds, it's against sources that are becoming increasingly dated and  
so I'd like to be able to update it and get everything back on track.

Also, as a heads up, I'm heading out on vacation Saturday, so if these  
get reviewed after that I probably won't be able to apply them until  
week after next. So if I don't apply them right away it's not because  
I don't want to. ;-)

Also #2, just for anyone curious, I was able to get it working so that  
the list of sources to compile is generated automatically using an  
excludes mechanism. I'd certainly be happy to help anyone who is  
interested in making the exclude patterns configurable based on port.  
As you can see from the patches, I only had to explicitly add (or  
remove) a dozen or so sources. Everything else is generated simply by  
telling it to build all non-port-specific sources in common dirs plus  
sources in wx and CURL directories, so I feel pretty confident that  
this could be adapted to build other ports fairly quickly.

Thanks,

Kevin
