Hi Lucile,
CC'ing to Tarik who wrote the ilixi port for webkit1, maybe he can help more.

I only used the LiTE port for webkit1.

The WebKit 1 & 2 ports were done as a proof of concept and released to the public. Of course, we are still maintaining these projects. Anyway, these are more like projects we would like to get paid for, e.g. if a company wanted us to integrate webkit into their embedded SW stack.

The Qt5 DirectFB plugin is not maintained by us at all, it was written by some developer we do not know. I was reading the code and was testing on Qt 5.2 recently, it was partly ok and was partly working at this point of time.

Regards, Marek

Hello Marek,

I would chose the less resources consuming (webkit1).

I have used the ilixi port which I've cloned from git.directfb.org/git/directfb/libs/WebKitDFB.git, webkitdfb-r148969 version. And I have followed the indications in http://ilixi.org/index.php?id=install-webkitdfb-for-ilixi. I had to make some modifications in order to compile (see the attachment) and adapt the cairo patch.

I have used CMake with the following options :
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE="$(HOST_DIR)/usr/share/buildroot/toolchainfile.cmake" \
-DCMAKE_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR=arm \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DPORT=DirectFB \
-DENABLE_FUSIONDALE=ON \
-DUSE_ILIXI=ON \
-DUNIX=ON \
-DUSE_CAIRO=ON \
-DENABLE_WEBGL=OFF

However I did not further investigate once I've realized that no updates had been made to the project since 9 months.
Is the Webkit - ilixi port still maintained ?
And what about Qt5 DirectFB platform plugin ?

Thanks,
Lucile

Hi,
both webkit1 and webkit2 were working fine actually, last time I tested them.

Which one do you want to use?
Which url did you clone to checkout webkit?
Which branch did you select on the clone?

Thanks, Marek

Hello everyone,

I am currently reviewing lightweight web browsers and applications to run on an TI AM1808 platform.
I have run the ilixi demonstration applications with success.
I have managed to build webkitDFB with buildroot, with the packages directFB 1.7.0, ilixi 1.0.0, cairo 1.12.10 but I am getting some SIGSEGV at runtime.

I was wondering about the support for the webkitDFB project. It seems that the last update was 9 months ago. Is this project abandoned ? If so is another web browser application currently supported ?

Also what is the support to be expected for QT5 platform plugin ?

Regards
