This appears to be affecting Vista now as well. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/888326 has some potentially-relevant information. Mark Rowe was updating me on the status yesterday in #webkit. This is an approximate summary of what he said: It seems to be a bug which we tickle in MSVC because of our usage of templates in SVGAnimatedProperty.h. Including SVGAnimatedProperty.h increases the object file size by a MB (which is the bug), and since SVGStyledElement.h includes it, anything which touches SVG in the codebase ends up with at least a 1MB object file. Boom. Linker fails. The Applers are working on a fix yet. This has started happening again. Created attachment 29173 [details]

That way the .cpp files will still be accessible from the Solution Explorer. Eventually we should put the SVG .cpp files back into the .vcproj using this method. > Property changes on: WebCore/html/HTMLElements.cpp > ___________________________________________________________________ > Added: svn:executable > + * You should remove this property. We also normally set svn:eol-style to native for new files. Maybe the new file should have "AllInOne" in its name? That would match JavaScriptCore's AllInOneFile.cpp and SVGAllInOne.cpp. r- for now, but I don't think it will be much work to get this commitable! Created attachment 29177 [details]

Landed as r42175 I would like to know one additional info. Sorry in-case I'm wrong. Actually this template bloat only increases the static library size or it will increase the runtime executable size as well? |
As of a few weeks ago, it seems to be impossible to successfully build WebKit in the Release configuration on Windows XP. Vista machines (and one Server 2003 R2 machine) build fine. Errors like this occur when linking: > Creating library... > d:\WebKit-BuildSlave\trunk-win-release\build\WebKitBuild\lib\WebCore.lib : fatal error LNK1106: invalid file or disk full: cannot seek to 0x51D16DEE This seems to be due to whole-program optimization (WPO). My guess is that we're running out of virtual address space. I don't know why this affects XP but not Vista -- perhaps there was a bug in the OS that was fixed. Booting with the /3GB option does not fix the issue. This is affecting the build bots.
