Rakesh, you are building the AppleWin port of WebKit, which only has 32-bit 
binaries available, but you probably want to use the WinCairo port because the 
license of WebKitSupportLibrary.zip says you’re not allowed to redistribute it. 
 To build the WinCairo port, you will need to run update-webkit --wincairo and 
build-webkit --wincairo --64-bit.
This is not the source of your build failure, though.  It looks like you have 
your gperf executable inside of C:\Program Files… somewhere, and I believe we 
have never had anyone build WebKit with a configuration like this.  I think the 
solution is to put quotes around the %s at the very end of 
Source/WebCore/platform/network/create-http-header-name-table.  There might be 
a few more places where this is needed.  Could you please file a bug a 
bugs.webkit.org with a patch if you get it working?

Hi Alex

thank you for your prompt answer. That is good news because in the past I had 
different difficulties in setting up a functional environment with several 
trial and error steps inbetween, although I tried to exactly follow the 
installation guide. I tend to create a virtual machine for a reliable building 
environment, so with my next one I will try without the cygwin installation. 

We use Webkit via COM interface on Windows in our application here, so I build 
rather infrequently, and with a working build, we then can live for some time. 
But for our use we would need 32bit dependencies, and if I understood 
correctly, there are currently only 64bit available. That doesn't matter at the 
moment, but when I am ready for our next build, I would ask again if you don't 
mind.

Thanks for your help!

[webkit-dev] Building WebKit on windows for the first time

[Frederic Gos]

Hi Peeps,

I'm new to WebKit. I'm trying to build it for the first time under windows
and keep getting errors. The linker seems to need absurd amounts of ram.
I keep getting an out of memory error from link.exe.

I've set up a machine for this by following the instruction on
http://webkit.org/

Here is what ive done so far:

Installed a new machine with Windows XP with 3.5 gb ram and a big big disk.
Installed Visual Studio 2005 with all the SP's and patches mentioned.
Installed the Platform SDK as mentioned.
Installed Cygwin as described.

I've got the source dirwctly from svn with the checkout command as described
and put the source in my home
gygwin directory, So far so good.

I've done a update-webkit first. I found this detail somewhere on the net,
dont remember where. I downloaded
the WebKitSupportLibrary.zip thing and put it in the main dir, etc.

When I run build-webkit, It builds and builds and builds etc, fine, but at
some point i begin to see errors like
$(PRODUCTION), $(DXSDKSIR) etc environment variables not set. (I suspect
this isnt a big problem). The big problem is when
the build reaches linking. It tells med Out of memory (LNK1102) every time.

One thing ive tried, is that I suspected that it maybe was the wrong
link.exe it got to (maybe the one in /cygwin/bin), so I renamed that
to link_back.exe. Still same error. So it finds the visual studio 2005
link.exe fine.

I'm sure this all is just me being a big webkit noob and someone has been
thru this trail before?

Any input would be very helpful ;) thx

brgds

Isn't this a development of WebKit question? I thought webkit-help was for
web development questions (e.g. how do I fix my site in webkit?). This
question seems appropriate to webkit-dev.

Frederic, I think the problem you're hitting is a known issue with the
Windows release build. Building debug should work (i.e. build-webkit
--debug).

It’s a “how to build WebKit” question, which is one of the main purposes of 
webkit-help. See the details on http://webkit.org/contact.html.

You are mistaken.

I already responded to Frederic on webkit-help, but basically the answer is:

You are most likely building in a 32-bit environment.  The work
arounds for this problem are as follows (choose one of the following):

1.  Build in 64-bit Vista or Windows 7.
2.  I have heard that KB949009
(https://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/Downloads/DownloadDetails.aspx?DownloadID=18623)
may correct the problem.
3.  Or, you can turn off Whole Program Optimization on the WebCore
project (see Configuration Properties|C/C++|Optimization), and turn
off Link Time Code Generation on the WebKit project (see
Configuration Properties|Linker|Optimization).

The last option will definitely work (I do this for my test box, which
is only 32 bits), though the best long-term choice is to run a 64-bit
OS.

Hey,

first, the list for questions like this is webkit-help.

Solution: in sub project settings, turn off incremental linking and setting 
compile optimizations to O0 will solve your problem.

Regards,

Zoltan

 Hi Peeps,

... 

 the build reaches linking. It tells med Out of memory (LNK1102) every time.
 
 One thing ive tried, is that I suspected that it maybe was the wrong
 link.exe it got to (maybe the one in /cygwin/bin), so I renamed that
 to link_back.exe. Still same error. So it finds the visual studio 2005
 link.exe fine.
 
 I'm sure this all is just me being a big webkit noob and someone has been
 thru this trail before?
 
 Any input would be very helpful ;) thx

[webkit-dev] Building WebKit on windows using Cairo

[Gmail (bahaazaid)]

Hi,
I want to use WebKit in my application on windows, I think it's much better 
than Gecko specially in my problem domain.
I want to build its Cairo port on windows because I want to use %100 open 
source code in my project.

I followed the instructions in the WebKit wiki 
http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingCairoOnWindows but I couldn't build it.
I faced many compilation errors about cURL and others.

Please, can anyone help me to build it?

Thanks

Re: [webkit-dev] Building WebKit on windows using Cairo

[Daniel Zucker]

Hi Bahaa,

I said earlier that I would update the wiki with updated build instructions,
but I haven't yet had time.  Sorry.

In the meantime, try this:
-follow current wiki instructions
-manually apply patch in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18435
-manually apply patch in https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18471

This should work.  However, I haven't had time to look at the code in the
last 1-2 weeks, so it is not confirmed.

Let me know how it goes.

Best,
Dan

Hi Daniel,

I tried to apply the two patches but they failed. Which revision you succeeded 
to build?

Thanks so much
