           Summary: Link error in CodeBlock, maximumBytecodeIndex is not
                    defined correctly
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: JavaScriptCore
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: xan.lopez at gmail.com


Getting this error:

Linking CXX executable ../../../bin/jsc
../../../lib/libjavascriptcore.so.0.1: undefined reference to `JSC::CodeOrigin::maximumBytecodeIndex'
cc: /home/xan/bbndk/host_10_0_9_404/linux/x86/usr/bin/ntoarm-ld error 1

The problem is that maximumBytecodeIndex is being declared like this:

 struct CodeOrigin {
     static const unsigned maximumBytecodeIndex = (1u << 29) - 1;


but according to the C++ spec apparently you cannot define static members like that, it will only count as a declaration. This page explains it pretty well: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3536372/defining-static-members-in-c

A simple fix is to define this in the cpp file, removing the assignment in the struct declaration. Patch coming.
