Bug 155838 – REGRESSION (r197358): WebKitSystemInterface.h copied into directory named "--llvm"

• Component: Tools / Tests
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Hofi]

the problem similar to this

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22019412/build-webkit-error-on-mac-os-x-10-9-webkitsysteminterface-h-file-not-found

building WebKitLegacy target for iOS simulator first got a compile time error

<webkit_root>/Source/WebKit/ios/WebCoreSupport/WebChromeClientIOS.mm:38:9: fatal error: 'WebKitSystemInterface.h' file not found

than after that resolved got a linker error during link time of WebKitLegacy

ld: library not found for -lWebKitSystemInterfaceIOSSimulator9.2


My case could be resolved by 2 steps

1. copied "<webkit_root>/WebKitLibraries/--llvm/usr" over to "<webkit_root>/WebKitBuild/<Configuration>/"
2. copied "<webkit_root>/WebKitLibraries/libWebKit"* over to "<webkit_root>/WebKitBuild/<Configuration>/"


the build made from the 'snapshot of the WebKit source tree' http://nightly.webkit.org/files/WebKit-SVN-source.tar.bz2 was available today (marc. 24 2016)
using Xcode 7.2.1 final on osx 10.11.4 final
I've been building from Xcode using the 'All Source' scheme for 9.2 iOS simulator

Sounds similar to bug 154880, must be another problem with command line parsing in the script.

I'm not sure how/if WKSI archive is downloaded when building from Xcode, perhaps you ran some terminal commands prior to that?

This sounds like the --llvm argument isn't supported as an option anymore, and it's still being passed. --llvm is then interpreted as the output directory, instead of as an option.
