Bug 17637 – compile error in CarbonWindowAdapter.m, Revision 30701

• Component: JavaScriptCore
• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

[Michael Zedler]

I checked out revision 30701, but using 
  WebKit/WebKitTools/Scripts/build-webkit
I get

** BUILD FAILED **

error: <JavaScriptCore/JSBase.h: No such file or directory

There are two surprising aspects to this error:
1) The presence of < in the error message.  I would not expect this to be output in the error message unless the compiler is looking for a filename with a literal < in the name.

2) JSBase.h is copied to JavaScriptCore's headers directory as part of the build process.  If WebKitBuild/Release/JavaScriptCore.framework/Headers/JSBase.h does not exist then the problem is much earlier in the build process.


Which version of Xcode are you using to build?

[Michael Zedler]

> Which version of Xcode are you using to build?
 
Xcode 2.4.1, Xcode Core: 762

I did nothing but checkout the current svn version and run 
  WebKit/WebKitTools/Scripts/build-webkit

Does WebKitBuild/Release/JavaScriptCore.framework/Headers/JSBase.h exist?

yes

and 
  WebKitBuild/Release/WebKit.framework/Headers/WebScriptObject.h
has in line 27
#import <<JavaScriptCore/JSBase.h>

so there's the spurious "<"

[Mark Rowe (bdash)]

Can you please do the following:
1) diff -u ./WebCore/bindings/objc/WebScriptObject.h WebKitBuild/Release/WebKit.framework/Headers/WebScriptObject.h


2) svn st WebCore/bindings/objc/WebScriptObject.h

returns nothing.

Just a guess, could this behaviour be caused by the fink sed version I'm running?
If I correct WebKitBuild/Release/WebKit.framework/Headers/WebScriptObject.h manually (remove spurious '<') the build compiles fine.

[Mark Rowe (bdash)]

Try removing Fink from your PATH variable and see whether things work correctly.  Mine is simply: /usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin, which I believe is the default on Leopard.

With Apple's sed the problem is gone, thanks. Last question: Is it possible to use the intel compiler instead of gcc?

[Mark Rowe (bdash)]

Using the Intel compiler isn't supported, though it may be possible to get it to work.

Closing bug as WORKSFORME as it was a local configuration problem that caused the build error rather than a problem in WebKit itself.
