Apologies for the multiple questions, but this process seems to have presented a few problems for me:
Point 1. I don't know if this is the best way to do it but I would have thought most people load the webkit project into VS 2005, and then attempt to run safari and debug it. However the webkit project cannot be loaded into VS 2005 without having already set WEBKITLIBRARIESDIR. So I don't see how debug-safari precludes the need to set WEBKITLIBRARIESDIR. Point 2. I don't know what value the system variable WEBKITOUTPUTDIR should have and can't find any instructions online, can someone help? Pont 3. Running debug-safari in cygwin results in VS 2005 opening for a second time even though I already have it opened with project code loaded. This seems odd since I end up with two instances of VS 2005, one with project code and one with safari.exe listed in the project panel. Am I using the command incorrectly?
