[webkit-help] Help with building in Windows for VS2012

Hi,

I'm trying to build WebKit for using with VS2012 runtime libraries, for both Win32 and x64 platforms. Here's what I've done (and failed):

Using qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.2.
In VS2012 ×86 Native Tools Command Prompt, I type the following configure command:

configure -I C:\icu\include -I C:\OpenSSL-Win32\include -I C:\OpenSSL-Win32 -I C:\OpenSSL-Win32\include\openssl -opensource -openssl-linked -debug-and-release -platform win32-msvc2012 -icu -nomake examples -nomake tests -L C:\OpenSSL-Win32\lib -L C:\icu\lib

And I get a series of errors when it gets to WebKit, the first one being:

qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.0.2\qtwebkit<http://qt-project.org/doc/QtWebKit.html>\source\webcore\generated\JSCrypto.h(35) : error C2065: 'Crypto' : undeclared identifier

...This is although JSCrypto.h successfully includes Crypto.h.
Any idea?



Giving up this approach, I've also tried to follow the rules in http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingQtOnWindows
Here there were two problems: running the perl command line, got a message that win_flex was missing (although the page doesn't mention win_flex, it mentions Flex). So, google'd & downloaded win_flex. Now the message is that qmake can't be found, and indeed in the open source package there is no qmake binary.

So my questions for this approach is:

-          Where can I find qmake for building the 5.0.2 open source binaries?

-          If I finally succeed to build, what compatibility will it have to VS2012?

Thanks,
Gil Moses.
