[webkit-help] Webkit Build Error

[Aman Gupta]

Thanks Adam, I filed the necessary bugs on your advice.

I tried using Visual Studio 2005 instead of Visual C++ 2005 Express
Edition. The Visual Studio compilation process allowed me to see most files
being compiled real time. Out of 35 projects, 21 compiled. Most projects
didn't compile because of the following error:

 error PRJ0002 : Error result 1 returned from
'C:\Windows\system32\cmd.exe'. Build log was saved at
"file://C:\cygwin\home\amang\webkit\WebKitBuild\Release\obj\TestWebKitAPI\BuildLog.htm"

Any idea what I might have run into?


Thanks
Aman Gupta
