No. Both Cygwin and Visual Studio/VC++ Express are required.
- How are "build-webkit script", "|set-webkit-configuration| script"
and |"update-webkit| script" needed? Are they needed to be run before
any compilation?
You must run update-webkit and build-webkit in order to install various
dependencies that are required to build WebKit. set-webkit-configuration
should not be required.
- What is the difference in the SOURCE from nightly code location
(http://nightly.webkit.org/) and SOURCE from
(http://nightly.webkit.org/files/WebKit-SVN-source.tar.bz2
<http://nightly.webkit.org/files/WebKit-SVN-source.tar.bz2>) that is
updated every 6 hours. The SOURCE from the 2 different locations are
significantly different in sizes, 16 MB as compared to 700 MB in the
tar.bz2 file. Also, these two are different from the SVN checkout of
source from the trunk
I think the larger file is a working SVN checkout (i.e., it includes all
the .svn directories), while the smaller one is essentially the output
from "svn export".
- I am unable to open the WebKit sln project located at the below
location
.......\WebKit-r70732\WebKit\win\WebKit.vcproj
because VS 2005 complains that it can't open 5 project folders
(JavascriptCore, Webcore etc...) as part of the project. Do I need to
get a licensed version of VS to execute Webkit solution.
You should be able to ignore those warnings.
- Is there a basic skeleton of Webkit code that we can use as a start
to port to a newer embedded platform? Currently WebKit has all code
for all platform with several graphics projects. I want a basic
skeleton code to start with with all optional packages and code
stripped out.
I don't think there's an easy way to get just the source code that is
used by a particular port.
