[webkit-help] compiling Project: JavaScriptCore, Configuration: Release Win32

[Dipanshu Mansingka]

On weekend I check out the code using Tortoise SVN. I used this code instead of unzipping the tar file as earlier.

I am following all the steps as mentioned. Pthread and ECU are not available in the code checked out or webkit support libraries. I had to download separately and add it to respective folders in webkit support libraries (include/bin/lib)

The first two project gets compiled and linked. But still while compiling the 3rd project JavaScriptCore I get these errors and warnings at the start and at the end.

You are not following the instructions in the build guide.

See the following wiki page:
"http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingOnWindows" for some helpful
details.

All library dependencies will be properly added and built on your
machine assuming you are following the instructions.

The fact that you are running around looking for DLLs and link
libraries tells me you are not setting your environment up properly.
Every library and dependency you need to build is described in the
wiki and web site, as well as the steps you need to take to set up
your build environment.

Please review those pages and actually follow the steps.
