Bug 221884 – Missing WEBKIT_TYPE_ constants

• Status: NEW
• Component: WebKitGTK

[Dennis Nezic]

I'm getting a bunch of undeclared constants/enums. They don't appear to be defined in ANY .h or .cpp file :s.

Still a problem. (webkitgtk-2.50.1)

The log contain a few lines like this:

    /bin/sh: 1: glib-mkenums: not found

This is most likely the root cause of the build failure. Make sure you
have the tool installed. If you are cross-compiling, make sure that a
the build host has the tool installed, and that it can run properly.

You seen to be using Buildroot, but instead of using "make webkitgtk"
you are manually invoking "cmake --build" from the work directory.
IIRC that won't work in general, because that bypasses the Buildroot
host tools directory (where glib-mkenums is present).

Hi Adrian,


To be honest, I'm writing here for a colleague who reported this.
Yes we are using buildroot, but on a variation of host systems. I
check if glib-mkenums is installed either by the host system, or
by a buildroot host package. I also double check if cmake is not just
ran form the working directory.

Thanks for you response.


Kr,

Thomas

Why didn't the build fail immediately if glib-mkenums is not available?

add_custom_command(
    OUTPUT ${WebKitGTK_DERIVED_SOURCES_DIR}/webkit/WebKitEnumTypes.h
           ${WebKitGTK_DERIVED_SOURCES_DIR}/webkit/WebKitEnumTypes.cpp
    DEPENDS ${WebKitGTK_ENUM_GENERATION_HEADERS}

    COMMAND glib-mkenums --template ${WebKitGTK_ENUM_HEADER_TEMPLATE} ${WebKitGTK_ENUM_GENERATION_HEADERS} | sed s/web_kit/webkit/ | sed s/WEBKIT_TYPE_KIT/WEBKIT_TYPE/ > ${WebKitGTK_DERIVED_SOURCES_DIR}/webkit/WebKitEnumTypes.h

    COMMAND glib-mkenums --template ${WEBKIT_DIR}/UIProcess/API/gtk/WebKitEnumTypes.cpp.in ${WebKitGTK_ENUM_GENERATION_HEADERS} | sed s/web_kit/webkit/ > ${WebKitGTK_DERIVED_SOURCES_DIR}/webkit/WebKitEnumTypes.cpp
    VERBATIM
)

Problem is sed succeeds (returns 0) even when glib-mkenums fails. We need to rewrite these somehow.

Note: we use glib-mkenums in 10 different places, which need to be fixed.
