Bug 22260 – Two build fixes for WebKit trunk against Symbian S60

• Component: Platform
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Simon Hausmann]

In the past few weeks we have submitted a bunch of trivial fixes for compiling the trunk of WebKit with the Qt port inside the Symbian S60 environment.

Two of those fixes however are more debatable and we would like to bring them up here for discussion and review.

Patch to fix compilation with WINSCW

We did not find a way to make the protection against the conversion from pointers to booleans to integers work with WINSCW, hence the #ifdef in the patch. But we would like to disable the protection in that case - in order to achieve compilation - and rely on the protection to work on the actual development platforms.

Simple workaround for RVCT compiler bug

This rather simple patch works around a bug in RVCT. I would normally not try to submit this as it is a compiler bug, but given the difficulty of changing RVCT and the simplicity I thought it's worth a try :-)

Code change looks OK, but it uses tabs, so we can't check it in as-is.

I'll say r=me, but to save work for committers please don't put patches up for review if they have tabs. Maybe the Qt folks can configure their git repository to catch this?

Looks fine, r=me

Thanks Darin for the review!

Landed both (with tabs fixed) in r38391 and r38392.

I'll try to fix our git repositories to catch tab errors, I'm surprised I didn't see it :(
