Re: [webkit-dev] RE: Error running Qt-launcher / safari
What is the state of QtWebKit? Can I build QtLauncher and run it against the latest Qtopia core 4.3.2 on a PowerPC? How about Qt core on a LInux x86?

[webkit-dev] Building WebKit over Qt on a Linux platform
I am trying to build WebKit over Qt on a Linux platform.I have looked at the source tree, but I did not find any Makefiles that look maintained for Unix development. I am willing to create these, but I need some sense of the organization of the project. I cannot use Objective-C (I'd like to, but I'm not allowed :-(); My goal is to create a Qt application that can run the equivalent of Apple's dashboard widgets. So, I need the rendering engine, the javascript engine, the CSS support, but not things like browser history, window support, etc. Can someone suggest which directories I'd need to get compiled to get started on this? Any help is greatly appreciated. Charlie ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
[webkit-dev] Getting started on building WebKit under Qt for Linux
I did some more looking, and I found http://trac.webkit.org/projects/ webkit/wiki/BuildingQtOnLinux to help get me started. So, I downloaded gperf and installed it (configure; make; sudo make install) Then I installed the unix extras (cd WebKitTools/Scripts; sudo ./ install-unix-extras) Then I configured WebKit (WebKit/WebKitTools/Scripts/set-webkit- configuration --debug) Then I exported my path to point to qmake (export PATH=~/qtopia-build/ qtopia/bin:$PATH) Then I tried to run WebKit/WebKitTools/Scripts/build-webkit -qt and I get an error about QMAKESPEC not being set. I am new to qmake, so I suspect I don't really appreciate how it works. Any advice/ pointers on this error would be greatly appreciated. ./build-webkit -qt Calling 'qmake CONFIG+=qt-port -r OUTPUT_DIR=/home/charlie/webkit- build/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Debug /home/charlie/webkit-build/WebKit/ WebKit.pro CONFIG-=release CONFIG+=debug' in /home/charlie/webkit- build/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Debug ...

[webkit-dev] Does Webkit support cross-compilation?
I am trying to get webkit/qt built for a PPC processor, using a cross- compiler. I have Qt cross-compiled and running on the target machine. When I try to build the webkti for the PPC, I get an error with dftables. Apparently, the build routine cross-compiled it instead of building it for the host platform. I am guessing that I did not set up something correctly.Below is the output and the QMAKESPEC. I don't see how to set it up to know about a cross-compilation. Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.

Re: [webkit-dev] Moving away from qmake
I am working on a port of WebKit on Qt to a PowerPC platform. Please make sure that we don't break the Qt port in this switch. I am comfortable with autotools, so that is not a big deal for me. I am concerned, however, that this will cause a fork with the work being done by the Trolltech folks (since I think that they are primarily qmake-promoters). Can we get some feedback from Trolltech on their ability to accept a switch to autotools for Webkit/Qt so we can switch to one new engine for all these ports? Thanks, Charlie On Nov 12, 2007, at 7:14 AM, Robert Norris wrote: If we cannot reach a conclusion, the GTK+ port will most likely go ahead and switch to autotools. I'm one person with a highly niche port, but for what its worth I'd support a move to autotools. I'm doing a port to AROS, which currently means cross-building WebKit on Linux. I opted to use qmake because it was the easiest one to get set up in a hurry (I have a little GTK+ experience so I could see how to cobble together what I needed from the gtk-port stuff). Getting the cross-compile happening is a bit of a hack though, and qmake docs are rather thin. If qmake is as hard to get hold of as you say (I don't actually know, my distribution had it packaged), then I really don't want to put that on my developers. Besides, eventually we will want to be able to develop WebKit natively on AROS. Its highly non-POSIX, but we already have ports of most of the tools need to do configure stuff. Since QT is not something we'll ever need, a port isn't likely to appear. Also cross-building is something I already know how to do with autotools, which will mean less effort for me getting it set up. 2c.

Re: [webkit-dev] Moving away from qmake
Ok, thanks for the feedback. I have had some issues with the cross- compilation of WebKit (dftables being built for the cross-platform, not the native platform). Any chance I can get someone doing the WebKit Qt port to address this? I don't know qmake well enough to make the changes. The defect was there two weeks ago, and I don't think I've seen any changes in that area since...

Trolltech is likely to continue to use the qmake based build system for now. That is because we are working on integrating WebKit into the build of Qt itself (which is built using qmake) and we need to be able to build WebKit without cygwin or bash installed on Windows.
