Hi Andres, Thank you for your suggestion. To be more precise I have toolchain gcc-4.8.2 compatible on the hardware device. So when I checked on webkitgtk versions and corresponding toolchain I found any version beyond webkitgtk 2.9.1 required gcc-4.9. So I got fixed to webkitgtk2.9.1 but as suggested below this version is unstable I will use the webkitgtk 2.8.5. Do you think any better webkitgtk version I can use with toolchain gcc-4.8.2.
