[webkit-help] Webkit-Cairo build failure - unresolved external WTF::equal

[Mike Fairlamb]

WTF gone wrong here!!!!


Pulled down the code from trunk. All the other projects compile/build 
successfully, up to Webkit2/WebKit. This compiles fine but does not link because 
of the error below.

Can anyone help with this error.


I have been following Chris Waldrons excellent notes on build Webkit on windows 
(+plus extra notes I have found from other places).

the actual definition is in Javascript/WTF project(text/StringImpl.h ) and is 
defined as an inline function, so should not be trying to link against anything!

It might be a problem with "const char *" and "char const *" definitions.

Any help would be appreciated.
