Bug 143782 – [Mac] TestWebKitAPI contains unit tests for WebCore features, but does not link to WebCore

• Status: NEW
• Component: Tools / Tests

[Brent Fulgham]

TestWebKitAPI has been instantiating and using WebCore objects without actually linking to the WebCore framework. This is causing build failures when using certain build settings that attempt to minimize symbol export.

We should explicitly link to WebCore so that the linker can do the right thing.

[Simon Fraser (smfr)]

Or we should not link with WebCore, and expose testing functionality through SPI. It is, after all, Test*WebKitAPI*.

[Alex Christensen]

If this is a problem, why does it ever work?

Actually, we can't link against WebCore, that generates an error:

"ld: cannot link directly with WebCore.framework.  Link against the umbrella framework 'WebKit.framework' instead. for architecture x86_64"

It looks like certain symbols are not getting exported via WebKit.framework. They appear to have WEBCORE_EXPORT declarations, and if those don't work properly I would expect many more linker errors than I am getting.

Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:
