I'm working on resolving this incompatibility and should have a fix ready soon. Sorry for any inconvenience this has caused. I'll send another email once I check in the fix.

In that case, whats the recommended way of working / testing with the
latest trunk build on windows ? How do a typical bug-fixing process
happen on a windows development box (unfortnately I don't have a ready
access to linux, so I was wondering if I could contribute by just
working on windows box? )

Subject: Re: [webkit-dev] safari crashes on winXP

I believe the trunk builds of Apples Windows WebKit port are not
compatible with the currently released Safari beta on Windows.

I think WebKit revision r26759 from 19th October as listed on the
Nightly build page is the latest compatible version.

http://nightly.webkit.org/

I have been trying to get my dev environment set up for webkit,, for quite a while actually. I have been able to build webkit.dll successfully using Visual C++ express edition on my winXP box. But when I try to run safari using /frameworkPath option, it crashes during the launch.
When I grab the webkit.dll from nightly build (on nightly.webkit.org),

then I am able to successfully launch safari using the same command.
That tells me, something is wrong in the way webkit.dll is getting
built.
I have looked at the build logs in webkit (and its dependent projects), but really the only thing it says, that I didnt know about is some environment variable called "BuildBot". It gives that as a warning. Now I wonder what that variable is used for ? I am already setting WebKitLibraries and WebkitBuildDir variables, do I also have to set 'BuildBot' ? In any case, its quite mind-boggling to think that a perfectly well built dll (from the latest source in the trunk) would cause safari to crash ? I must be doing something fundamentally wrong .. Any help is greatly appreciated...
I know I have been this far only because of all the help I got on this

list.. so thanks a lot..
Amit
