Re: [webkit-dev] WebKit and Windows/Cygwin

2008-09-09 Thread Justin Haygood 
The Qt4/Windows build does not require Cygwin normally. I don't even have
Cygwin, and I can build the Qt4 WebKit just fine.

Ok ... but the Windows build requires me to be in cygwin for other
reasons. I guess I'm basically trying to confirm that as it stands
today, you cannot build Qt Windows port as specified on webkit.org due
to cygwin not supporting the required version of qt.

Mark,

That's interesting because on a Windows machine you have to use cygwin,
but cygwin supports qt3 only. I take it from your remark that qt4 is
required. Therefore, it is not possible build for Windows. (By the way,
I don't know how the QTDIR environment variable got set. The cygwin
installation did not set it because I have another machine with cygwin
that doesn't have that environment variable.)

So, you're saying I can force an Apple build, but that does me no good
because I have a Windows machine.

The error mentioned in your initial email indicates that the build- 
webkit script had detected that you were attempting to build the Qt  
Windows port rather than the Apple Windows port.  It failed to build  
the Qt Windows port due to having an older version of Qt installed  
than what WebKit requires to build.  You can force it to build the  
Apple Windows port, which the instructions on webkit.org are aiming to  
build, by unsetting the QTDIR environment variable before running  
build-webkit.

Safari is set up to allow an updated version of WebKit to be used with  
it, yes.  This is for the purpose of testing new WebKit versions and  
is not a supported mechanism for extending Safari.exe.

If you want to build the Qt port on Windows, you should follow the  
instructions at .  As  
I mentioned previously, the instructions at 
 are related to building Apple's Windows port rather than the Qt port.

I did download the nightly build the other day and noticed that after

WebKit is a large (high-profile) project. Even for experienced
developers, it 
might take a while until you manage to understand it. This means, you
must be 
ready to invest some serious time and effort.

Anyway, from the previous error message that you posted, seems you want
to 
build QtWebKit on Cygwin and Qt3. There is no way this is going to be a 
success. Try to find out more about QtWebKit and you will find the
answers.

BTW, hundreds have successfully built QtWebKit on Linux and Windows by 
following these instructions:

My understanding is that WebKit moved to an open development model  
after support for 10.3 had been dropped from the code base.  Some  
interest was expressed in getting things working again on 10.3, but  
little was achieved in that direction.

Why do you need to build WebKit yourself rather than relying on the  
system version?

Mark,

I should add that the ultimate goal of my research is to try to
determine if we can use WebKit to build a client running on a Windows CE
device. I was told WebKit would provide a framework or skeleton for a
browser that we could customize to access peripherals on handheld
devices like barcode scanners, portable printers, magstripe readers. We
are currently trying to determine whether to go thin client or thick
client. There are commercial browsers available but they involve
licensing. The thought was that the open source WebKit would allow us to
write our own thin client.

Which port of WebKit are you trying to build?  The fact that you're  
seeing errors related to qmake suggest that you're trying to build the  
Qt port.  Is that the case?

Re: [webkit-dev] WebKit and Windows/Cygwin

2008-09-09 Thread Frank.Lautenbach 
Hi Mark,

I'm following the instructions given on the WebKit website to checkout
and build the source:

http://webkit.org/building/checkout.html

http://webkit.org/building/build.html

Note that I am primarily Windows developer (with some Unix/Linux
experience) making a leap to the world of Web/Open Source here, so I'm
not that familiar with Qt, qmake, etc. I was given the task of
researching WebKit and decided to, minimally get the source, build it
and see what I come up with. The WebKit.org site is very inadequate in
regards to a good overview of WebKit, in my humble opinion, so I feel a
bit lost and frustrated at this time.

Frank
