@Nick Guenther Hi
Firstly there are two ports for Windows 1. Apple's Window Port (Default) 2. Cairo's Window Port Main Difference Apple's port is dependent on CoreGraphics for graphics, CoreNetworks for networking, CoreFoundation for datatype definition, IPC etc which are proprietary Apple Software. Whereas Cairo Port is the Open Source version of the same it replaces CoreGraphics with Cairo as their Graphics Library CoreNetworks with libcurl and CoreFoundation with CFLite To build on Cairo you required to append --wincairo to the build command I presume to built Apple one If you are using "WebKit.exe" from bin then it requires Safari to be installed on the PC and you need to place all the dependent DLL's (besides WebKit.dll and JavascriptCore.dll) at the same location where your executable resides These DLL's can be found in "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support" You could also look into two projects "MiniBrowser" and "WinLauncher". WinLauncher is an independent browser which you can use to test out your new build. I assume MiniBrowser too @Adam Roben On Apple's Window Port I do get the support for GeoLocation (10/10) for WinLauncher. So currently my browser ranks 224 on the html5 test it's only missing WebGL and MicroData and perhaps a couple of others.Rest is fine >Date: Wed, 23 Feb 2011 18:01:45 +0000 >From: Nick Guenther <[email protected]> > >>To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> >>Subject: [webkit-help] Windows port depends on Safari? >>Message-ID: <[email protected]> >>Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" > > >I'm trying to deploy a small app on top of WebKit on Windows 7.

It runs fine on my dev machine (which has Safari installed) but when I move it it complains "The application cannot start [this is actually a lie, it starts fine it just hits this when it tries to load DLL] because ___.dll is missing" where ___ is one of several things in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support. > >Okay, fine, so I copied all the DLLs it wanted in but then, then it says "WebKit.dll".

How does WebKit even find these DLLs? http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/registered_dll_view.html doesn't list any of them as being known to Windows, is the Common Files\Apple\... path hardcoded somewhere?. > >Any small pointer could be enough for me to figure it out, so thanks in advance for any tips anyone can share, >-Nick Guenther >DossierView.com > -- Mr. Nimish Nayak
