Hi Brent,
Is it possible to replace a DLL used by the compiled WebKit with a
newer version of the same DLL without recompiling WebKit? I need to
link my application with CFLite but your compiled version of WebKit in
CallJS does not include a CFLite library file (only a DLL). Your
requirements package has a DLL and a library file though. Can I just
delete the DLL without a library file and copy in the one from CallJS
or will that not work? If not, would you be willing to build me a
copy of WebKit with the CFLite library file intact? I would be
willing to pay if necessary. I have tried extensively to build the
source, but I always get errors that I think are related to using
Visual Studio 2005 Express. Would buying Visual Studio 2005 Pro make
building WebKit work more seamlessly? I'm not sure I would have much
use for it other than building WebKit, so I would rather not buy it if
I don't have to.
Thanks,
Eric

I have developed a Mac application that I am porting to Windows.
How can I use JavaScriptCore in my Windows application?
You can try my port of the Apple example program "CallJS"; it's an
attempt to illustrate a Windows program using WebKit, interacting
between C++ and JavaScript. http://idisk.mac.com/bfulgham-Public/CallJS.zip
Are there precompiled JavaScriptCore.dll files that can be linked
right in to applications and freely distributed?
Not really. I try to keep a build on my iDisk (same spot as that
example), but it's a bit out of date.
To be freely distributed, you can't use the CoreGraphics,
CoreFoundation, or CFNetwork dll's. I've managed to ressurect
Apple's original Windows Cairo port (you can see some further info
on http://lest.blogspot.com.) It's currently built using CFLite ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/opencflite/
, Apple's Open Source portions of the full CoreFoundation), cURL for
the network stack, and Cairo for graphics.
For a full example of what it's capable of, check out the
Appcelerator Titanium project's Windows port, which uses this build
of WebKit.
Pretty much all of the Cairo logic is in the tree, with the
exception of a small patch to conditionalize printing in
WebFrame.cpp. I've tried to provide dll's for the build
requirements on my iDisk, and have had a few independant reports of
successful builds.
Let me know if I can provide any further info.
Thanks,
-Brent
