Hi Mark,
This problem just won't go away :-(
RE:
______________________________________________________
Checking Dependencies...
** BUILD FAILED **
The following build commands failed:
JavaScriptGlue:
CopyStringsFile /Users/samueljd/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Release/
JavaScriptGlue.framework/Versions/A/Resources/English.lproj/
InfoPlist.strings English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
(1 failure)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When I first installed the SVN client and checked out the WebKit trunk
I was able to build without any problems. The problems occurred some
weeks later when my internet connection went down while I was checking
out an updated WebKit trunk. I have since deleted the old version of
WebKit trunk from my machine and checked out a spanking new one but
I'm still not able to build the target on my machine. Believe you me
this is really frustrating mainly because I can't see why I can't
build targets anymore even with a brand new trunk. Do I need to
update my SVN client?
While building WebKit with command-line in the Terminal, the output
shows lots of compiler commands but there is nothing in it that I can
identify as a compiler error. So I tried a creative approach to
solving the problem by attempting to build JavaScriptCore.xcodeproj in
XCode. The JavaScriptCore target built successfully without any
errors. However, when I tried to build JavaScriptGlue.xcodeproj
within XCode I had numerous errors (53) as apposed to a single Error
when using the command-line. Perhaps this suggest that there is some
inter-dependancies between the sub-projects (i.e. JavaScriptCore,
JavaScriptGlue, WebCore and WebKit) when building WebKit, hence the
reason for the build pearl script.
Here is where the command that fails is first displayed the Terminal:
CopyStringsFile /Users/samueljd/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Release/
JavaScriptGlue.framework/Versions/A/Resources/English.lproj/
InfoPlist.strings English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings
mkdir /Users/samueljd/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Release/
JavaScriptGlue.framework/Versions/A/Resources/English.lproj
cd /Users/samueljd/WebKit/JavaScriptGlue
/Developer/Library/Xcode/Plug-ins/CoreBuildTasks.xcplugin/
Contents/Resources/copystrings --validate --inputencoding UTF-16 --
outputencoding UTF-16 English.lproj/InfoPlist.strings --outdir /Users/
samueljd/WebKit/WebKitBuild/Release/JavaScriptGlue.framework/Versions/
A/Resources/English.lproj
Usage: iconv [-c] [-s] [-f fromcode] [-t tocode] [file ...]
or: iconv -l
After this output, there are a lot of compiler commands starting with
CompileC but I can't see anything that looks like an error code or
output. Strange problem indeed!
Do you know of any creative ways in which I could start building
WebKit again on my local machine? Any suggestions would be much
appreciated :-)
Best regards,
Sam
