Bug 129499

Summary: In Xcode builds, WebKitLibraries aren't copied into BUILT_PRODUCTS_DIR
Product: WebKit Reporter: BJ Burg <bburg>
Component: Tools / TestsAssignee: Nobody <webkit-unassigned>
Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE

Description BJ Burg 2014-02-28 11:26:52 PST
For open source builds, it seems you must first run build-webkit at the command line because copy-webkitlibraries-to-product-directory is never invoked by the Xcode projects. However, build-webkit doesn't expose any way to change the build root. This is a pain if you have a feature flag and want one svn checkout but two build directories to test the build with/without the flag enabled.

So I have to manually execute the script:

perl Tools/Scripts/copy-webkitlibraries-to-product-directory --wksi /Users/bburg/repos/webkit-patches/OpenSource/WebKitBuild/Vanilla/Debug

Is there something I'm missing here?

I can't directly verify this bug anymore, but it seems it should be fixed by the adjustments to product directory lookup made awhile ago.

copy-webkitlibraries-to-product-directory is now executed as a build pre-action when you're using a workspace. I'm not sure when that was added.

The WebKit workspace, that is.

One more thing to note: you actually can tell build-webkit to use a different build directory by setting $WEBKIT_OUTPUTDIR in the environment.
