Bug 114880 – [Qt4] QtWebKit 2.3.1 broke compilation on MSVC

• Component: WebKit Qt
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Bartosz Brachaczek]

I compile QtWebKit 2.3 on MSVC 2012 32-bit. Commit 7349c1125423555d908d89a0fd1548cf5cee2de3 in QtWebKit 2.3.1 broke compilation for me, reverting it locally fixes the problem.

Tail of compilation output:

        "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\BIN\nmake.exe" -f Makefile.QtWebKit.api

Looks like $${WEBCORE_GENERATED_SOURCES_DIR} is not defined in  api.pri, so it probably need to include WebCore.pri somehow.

Created attachment 199031 [details]
Patch

This should hopefully fix it.

[Allan Sandfeld Jensen]

Pushed to qtwebkit-2.3-staging. If you confirm it solves the issue, I will push it to the  release branch as well, in any case it should be part of 2.3.2.

[Bobber]

Please use $${ROOT_BUILD_DIR}/Source/WebCore/$${GENERATED_SOURCES_DESTDIR}/InspectorBackendCommands.qrc in Source/api.pri here. WEBCORE_GENERATED_SOURCES_DIR is defined in WebCore.pri that's not included by Source/api.pri.
