Thanks Artem,
that was the problem! I launch the build from windows shell and it builds! :)

now I want to test it, launching run-safari, but it doesnt work :( . Debugging the script I see that it is trying to launch a safari.exe command. But I have no safari.exe command in all my system. ¿Have I missed something? Perphaps I have to install safari in order to debug.. I do not know..

Thanks in advance,
 Eva



Hi, Eva,

qmake knows nothing about cygwin path notation ('/cygdrive/d/...') so it cannot find the file. This problem may be easily workarounded by passing all the paths to qmake in the form of 'd:\...' (requires some modification to webkitdirs.pm script). You may use `cygpath` utility to convert paths.

Hello,
I am very new in this, including C++, symbian and webkit. So, apologize for my 
questions if they are so basic...

I was trying to compile webKit in a Windows XP proffesional.
I have installed cygwin and Qt (for qmake command).
I have download source code from subversion repository.
Then, I access to Scripts directory and execute build-webkit and the result is:


    $ webkit/webkittools/scripts/build-webkit --debug
    Checking mod-date of WebKitSupportLibrary.zip...
    Current WebKitSupportLibrary is up to date
    Calling 'qmake -r OUTPUT_DIR=/cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKitBuild/Debug
    CONFIG+=qt-port /cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKit.pro CONFIG-=release CO
    NFIG+=debug' in /cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKitBuild/Debug ...

    Cannot find file: \cygdrive\d\webkit\WebKit.pro.
    Failed to setup build environment using qmake!

But indeed the file exists!!

    $ ls /cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKit.pro
    /cygdrive/d/webkit/WebKit.pro

¿What's the matter? ..
By the way, I have not installed Visual C++ 2005 Express because I would like to use Carbide C++ ... ¿Is this possible?

Thank you very much,
     Eva
