[webkit-help] Cross-compiling webkit for ARM platform on Linux-x86 machine

[Jilu Oommen]

Hi Gabor,

Thanks for your reply.

Sorry for the trouble, can you please tell me the command to checkout a 
particular revision of webkit (r47266).
 From the links that you had mentioned, I guess the latest versions of 
webkit can be checked out.

"Until there is ARM JIT support for Gtk port, you can add 'arm' host
into configure.ac by hand (see around configure.ac:530)."

Also, I understand that in revision r47266 of webkit , by adding 'arm' 
host in configure.ac, I will be able to get
ARM JIT support for QT port. Currently there  is no option to enable ARM 
JIT support for GTK support.
Is my understanding correct?

Thanks a lot,
Jil
