Created attachment 288573 [details] Build log files CMakeError.log and CMakeOutput.log If there is a more appropriate forum or location for this I apologize. If I post this to a CMake forum, they will say this is a source issue. Clearly, building on Windows shouldn't be this difficult, but it is. I never had these problems on 32-bit Windows. Below is the output from "perl build-webkit." These are not variables from my environment or OS. Instead, line 100 of OptionsWin.cmake has the line "if (${MSVC_CXX_ARCHITECTURE_ID} STREQUAL "X86")" which it complains about. If I new how to pass an argument to say, "Hey, I'm building for 64-bit Windows," I would. I have replaced my username with *user* just for security or privacy. Note any other words surrounded by asterisks (*). ----------------------------------------------------- CMake Error at Source/cmake/OptionsWin.cmake:100 (if): if given arguments: "STREQUAL" "X86" Unknown arguments specified Call Stack (most recent call first): Source/cmake/OptionsAppleWin.cmake:1 (include) Source/cmake/WebKitCommon.cmake:47 (include) CMakeLists.txt:126 (include) -- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

Perhaps someone should consider just posting installers for prebuilt, stable versions of Webkit for Windows. If Apple simply had continued making Safari available. It seems that I simply need to start from scratch. Trying my best to uninstall as much as possible and creating a new source tree. Otherwise, I should give up. There are Webkit browsers available for Windows, but they are very limited, unmaintained, or unusable on Windows 10.
I think you are running into an annoyance with Windows/CMake. If you are using a command line that was launched with the 32-bit build tools in their path, that is the kind of build CMake will create for you. If you attempt to do a 64-bit build, you get a mix of build tools, and bad things happen. Instead, you have to start from the 64-bit build environment, either by using the console shortcut provided by Visual Studio, or by calling VCVARSALL.BAT with the right flags.
What are the right flags? I deleted the source tree, started from scratch, and ran vcvarsall.bat. What about "features.h not found?" Is that an unimportant error? I ran vcvarsall.bat amd64, reran perl update-webkit, and got the same error. At worst, it should build the wrong architecture. I opted to download all SDKs when I install Visual Studio. I should theoretically be able to build for iOS if I want, but I'm starting to think that the perl script needs to be smart enough to know what architecture it is running on. Even if it's can't be sure of the exact architecture, it should know it's on Windows and default to Win32. I also note when I search for MSVC_CXX_ARCHITECTURE_ID I find many issues mentioned about CMake having problems. I see no clear explanation or solution. Is STREQUAL a defined function or built into Perl? I'm not trying to be a smarta**, but does anyone actually try to build on Windows anything not specifically built for Windows. I suppose I could just boot up Linux, install mingw and crossbuild (whatever the tool is created by Gimp developers). However, I would prefer to do it on Windows.

adding --no-ninja argument (i.e. 'perl build-webkit --no-ninja') allowed me to 'fix' that cmake error.
Have you tried Otter browser? https://otter-browser.org/ https://sourceforge.net/projects/otter-browser/files/otter-browser-weekly141/

The choice of C compiler should not make a difference, and GCC is a good C compiler. However, it may be best practice to use a compiler designed for Microsoft. It does seem that in the past there were many C compilers out there that did a good job when Windows was only 32 bit, though some 16-bit programs were still around. Borland had a working C compiler, but I have heard they have dropped out of the market with 64-bit Windows becoming commonplace and Visual Studio being available for free and much improved. I also believe that programmers write sources and scripts with the assumption that Visual Studio will be used for Microsoft Windows, GCC will be used *nix programs, and XTools will be used for Apple programs that will use Apple libraries. One cannot simply write generic source code for a program and expect the build tools to compile the program without instructions. Keeping this in mind, I would not expect GCC to build perfectly for Windows any more than Visual Studio to build perfectly for Linux. I know I can pass parameters on the command line in Linux to use specific tools. However, I have little experience in doing this in Windows. Perhaps, I should simply change the environment variables to hide undesirable tools, reboot and compile. In conclusion it seems that the answer is to pass parameters or hide GCC.
(In reply to comment #5) > Have you tried Otter browser? > > https://otter-browser.org/ > https://sourceforge.net/projects/otter-browser/files/otter-browser-weekly141/ I did like Opera in the past, and I like QT better than GTK. Though I find that GTK actually looks better on Windows than Linux flavors I've used in the past. However, my goal is to have a 64-bit browser on Windows that is as close to Safari as possible. Though, I may install it and try it out just to see what it's like. Just a thought, can you imagine Microsoft adopting GTK3 after working with Ubuntu and Canonical? Perhaps they could be available as alternatives and sit right alongside other libraries in the Windows folder.

I recently fixed https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=172570 which should get you past that issue if you are using mingw. I don't compile on mingw so no clue how much further it will get you. I do know that if you do not set CC and CXX if you are using Ninja then it will search the path. If it finds mingw or another compiler first then it will attempt to use that.
