Hello all, for the past hours I have tried to find a solution to the following issue: After successfully building the Cairo port on my machine (XP SP3, VS 2005 Express) I tried to execute the MiniBrowser and other executables but always got the following error message:
The procedure entry point WSAPoll could not be located in the dynamic link library WS2_32.dll. I searched the web and here is what I found out so far. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post links so I provide Google instructions instead: -WSAPoll is only supported on Vista and higher. -The offending library is libcurl.dll and maybe cairo.dll as well. See thread "Kunio Yamazaki Running WebKit Cario on WinXP". -It is caused because the library/libraries are built with "#define WINVER 0x0600" instead of with "#define WINVER 0x0502". See blog post "Mateusz Loskot WSAPoll hacks for libcurl". -libcurl.dll and cairo.dll are provided with the WinCairoRequirements.zip file that is automatically downloaded with the "update-webkit --wincairo" command. -WinCairoRequirements.zip has been updated on 01/12/2012 whereas the source ZIP file on the same public.me.com website is from July last year. Question #1: Does anybody have an easier solution to solve the WSAPoll problem on XP than starting to build my own WinCairoRequirements? Question #2: If I have to build my own requirements specifically for XP, where can I find the latest source code that is also used for the official WinCairoRequirements.zip build, plus instructions on how to do the build? I looked at libcurl and it contains pretty well-written build instructions for Windows but I didn't see any for cairo.dll. Thanks a lot, Christoph -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/Could-not-find-answer%3A-Build-and-run-Cairo-Webkit-on-XP-tp33158989p33158989.html Sent from the Webkit mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev
