Hi Herb
If you grep around the WebKit codebase for COMPILER(MSVC) there are a number of
workarounds hanging out. Some may have been fixed over time but the workaround
wasn’t removed.
Biggest issue was around the JIT and some other low level features the JSC
folks utilize that isn’t present in
Thank you, Jean-Yves and Don!
One followup: I don’t know WebKit well but was surprised that it was being
built with MSVC, and Yusuke mentioned Windows projects that build with clang-cl
instead. Are there known users/products who are building with WebKit that are
important not to break, so
Hey Herb,
Not everyone whose embedding WebKit on Windows announces to us that they’re
using it so unsure if someone is still compiling using MSVC. All the
documentation we have points to clang-cl being the preferred way. The ones we
know of Bun, https://bun.sh/ , and Playwright,
It’s a use-after-free error to create a RefPtr during ~T(), and have that
RefPtr live past the end of ~T().
In debug builds, we try to catch this error by eagerly assertion
!T::m_deletionHasBegun in the RefPtr constructor.
At the same time, our smart pointer rules sometimes require us to use
