Hi,
I am looking at porting WebKit to the QNX Neutrino operating system and
am trying to figure out the requirements for the target graphics system
and OS. I have looked at the GTK+ version under Linux a bit. I wanted
to know if WebKit required an underlying windowing system with widgets
or if you could port it to a system using only a graphics library and
input event management. Looking at the GTK+ version it seems to use
buttons and the like for display. Thanks for any information,
Hi Brian,
You can port WebKit to a graphics system without needing an underlying
UI toolkit. This approach is often taken in WebKit ports for platforms
where the browser is the main/only user interface on the target system.
In fact, if you look at the GTK+ port, it actually falls back to a
Cairo-only rendering path without actually using GTK+ at all when printing.
