           Summary: WebKitQt always rebuilds every file every time on
                    Windows
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows Vista
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Qt
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: jhaygood at reaktix.com


Something in WebCore.pro causes nmake to always rebuild every file every time.
nmake (like make) uses timestamps of files to determine which files to rebuild,
etc... Something in WebCore.pro causes nmake to think that all files need
rebuilding. Not all .pro files cause this problem, so its not a general problem
with qmake or nmake.

(BTW, this is reproducable both via build-webkit and by running nmake directly
on the generated Makefile in WebKitBuild)

Other important versions:

1. WebKit - HEAD from WebKit SVN at whatever time is now
2. Qt - 4.5.2, built from source using spec win32-msvc2008
3. Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1
