Description Brent Fulgham 2007-12-05 17:27:11 PST

The attached scripts (and patch) allow the user to launch Drosera.exe on Windows.  Without these changes, Drosera cannot find the necessary libraries and support DLLs to run.

Comment 4 Brent Fulgham 2007-12-05 17:31:25 PST

The "run-drosera-nightly.cmd" and "run-drosera" scripts need to go in the WebKit/WebKitTools/Scripts directory.

The patch patches the webkitdirs.pm to support running Drosera.

Ideally, the FindSafari.exe program would have an option to output the environment information without forcing the Safari run command.  I'll file a separate bug for that.

Comment 5 Brent Fulgham 2007-12-05 17:51:49 PST

Note:  You have to exit from the instance of Safari that opens before Drosera will launch.  This is because of the way FindSafari outputs its environment text.  See Bug #16315 for a thought on how to work around it.

There were quite a few problems with this patch.

For one thing, the ChangeLog didn't describe what was changed or mention this bug number.

For another, the patch to webkitdirs.pm was completely wrong for Mac OS X -- presumably a mismerge.

Patch containing updates to support building and running Drosera under win32 and Mac OS X.

Also it introduced tabs into webkitdirs.pm. But I fixed all of that when landing.

Comment 12 Darin Adler 2008-01-13 11:55:20 PST

Committed revision 29455.

Comment 13 Timothy Hatcher 2008-05-17 09:56:07 PDT

Closing since Drosera has been replaced by the new Web Inspector debugger. Moving to the New Bugs component so the Drosera component can be closed and removed.
