           Summary: [GTK] [CMake] Convenience libraries that export API
                    should be compiled with --whole-archive on Unix
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKit Gtk
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: mrobinson at webkit.org
            Blocks: 115966


CMake doesn't automatically add --whole-archive when linking convenience libraries, so we need to add it to the linker command line manually. Without the flag, the linker will trim unused symbols from the final shared object.
