    Hi Alex

    

    thank you for your prompt answer. That is good news because in the
    past I had different difficulties in setting up a functional
    environment with several trial and error steps inbetween, although I
    tried to exactly follow the installation guide. I tend to create a
    virtual machine for a reliable building environment, so with my next
    one I will try without the cygwin installation. 

    

    We use Webkit via COM interface on Windows in our application here,
    so I build rather infrequently, and with a working build, we then
    can live for some time. But for our use we would need 32bit
    dependencies, and if I understood correctly, there are currently
    only 64bit available. That doesn't matter at the moment, but when I
    am ready for our next build, I would ask again if you don't mind.

    

    Thanks for your help!

    

    Thomas

      That also applies to the WinCairo port.  I don’t think you’ll need
      GNU Make any more now that we use CMake for Windows.  You also
      shouldn’t need to install iTunes to build and run WinCairo.  With
      WinCairo, you will also need the WinCairoDependencies.zip which
      you can get by running Tools/Scripts/update-webkit-wincairo-libs.
       Right now, only the 64-bit dependencies are included in that zip,
      but let me know if you need 32-bit dependencies.  They are from https://github.com/peavo/WinCairoRequirements 
      Then you should be able to build with Tools/Scripts/build-webkit
      --wincairo --64-bit
      

      
      We really should update the instructions on webkit.org

               Does this
                also apply for the WinCairo port? Or does this port
                still require cygwin?

                  Those instructions are out of date.  The most
                  up-to-date instructions about building on Windows are http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/WindowsWithoutCygwin

                                I am trying to build webkit on Windows .

                                I am following  steps from https://webkit.org/building-webkit-on-windows/

                                However I am unable to find a way to
                                build webkit using MSVS2015 or  Cygwin .

                                Can anyone guide here please?

                                regards
