The .lib file is an import library that contains stubs to all the
functions in the DLL and automatically loads and attachs the DLL. This
is how much win32 shared libraries (DLLs) are packaged (otherwise you
have to open the library yourself and search for all the entry points
and build pointers to the functions, etc.) I'd basically want this so I
can use the JavaScriptCore DLL in my project (i.e., not just as an
update for Safari.)
I'd also like to see the specific header files put in there, but that's
not as important but would be nice.

It sounds like this mail is specifically requesting one thing: that
.lib files be included in windows nightlies. Is that correct? (I
don't know what a .lib file is enough to know if this is a good idea
or not.)
If that is your request, please file a bug.

All the pieces to build nightlies can be found in here:

Last I knew, Mark Rowe (reachable on
#webkit as bdash) builds our nightlies.

After weeks of labor, I'm ready to switch from SpiderMonkey to
Nitro. One thing that would make my life much easier is to use
the nightly builds as "development binary releases." I know this
is a little outside their intended use. For OS X, it's easy, I
just open the package and grab the framework. For win32, though,
I'm missing the lib to go along with the dll. Is it possible
whatever script builds the nightly could also put in the lib, and
even better (I can get these from the source, so it's not a big
deal), the interface headers for JSC (and probably those for the
other components.)
I understand that I'm basically asking for a convenience on my
part, but I think a lot of open source libraries have binary
releases and hopefully it might be simple on your end (to alter
some script.)
Thanks,
