[directfb-users] WebKit DFB

Plus 1. very much interested to support and contribute to this project.
AFAIK, i heard that there is a more recent port that is yet to be pushed
out.
But looks like the core-maintainers are busy with some other stuff ..

I managed to compile the 2010-11-18 stuff on PC.. it did work well.
And I don't think you need GTK for it. It just requires LiTE/ Cairo / DFB

Hi,
I'm wondering whether the WebKit DFB project is still running/supported.
I've cloned the git repo and moved to branch webkitdfb_2010-11-18, but
have some issues in cross-compiling it, as my platform doesn't have
GTK+ (error is about 'gail' not found, actually).
Could anyone provide any advice?

After some hacking in Makefiles, I managed to ./configure WebKit
(hoorray!). In particular, I'm using branch webkitdfb_2010-11-18.

Unfortunately 'make' fails with this error:

...

I've recompiled using the '--disable-shared-workers' configure flag
and it failed with this error:

...

make: *** [all] Error 2

Now I'm wondering if those errors are due to my toolchain (I'm
cross-compiling for Atom) or they are issues in the source code/side
libraries.

This is what I'm using:

cairo 1.10.0
curl 7.25.0
directfb/direct/fusion 1.4.3
enchant 1.6.0
fontconfig 2.8.0
freetype 2.3.5
gettext 0.18.1.1
glib 2.26.1
gperf 3.0.4
icu 3.8
libpng 1.2.49
libsoup 2.28.2
libxml2 2.7.8
libxslt 1.1.26
Lite 0.8.10
pango 1.27.1
pixman 0.19.2
SQLite3 autoconf-3071100

I couldn't find a list of the required versions for each library, so I
would be grateful if anyone could provide a link to that, if exists.

Also, the code looks allright, my C++ is a bit rusty so I may have
missed something... any idea?

Cheers,
Piero

Hi Sriram,

thank you for sharing this. I've added my cross-compile options
(--host, --prefix, etc.) and could generate a correct Makefile.
However 'make' fails when looking for Xlib.h (see below) and I don't
have/want X11 on my embedded platform. My understanding is that X11
should not be necessary in order to build WebKitDFB.

Do you remember which branch did you use?

Tomorrow I'll try again, maybe using the 'webkitdfb_2010-11-18_cairo'
branch as well, just in case.

Best,
Piero

NPAPI and linux without X11 dont blend well
For now NPAPI defaults to X11 on Linux; I hope WebkitDFB will change it.
We will have to convince push NPAPI-DFB definitions via Mozilla

Maybe it's a naive question... In the git page
(http://git.directfb.org/) I can see two WebKitDFB projects:

libs/WebKitDFB.git and programs/WebKit.git

It looks like they're sharing a lot of code, and I'm quite confused on
what the differences are, especially in terms of features.

To make things clear, I'm planning to use it in an Atom-based embedded
device, with full HTML5 and WebGL support.
I would probably need it as a library, i.e. I should be able to render
my own content (not necessarily a remote web page).
Which one (if any) should I use?

Cheers,
rippel

For now,
1. disable NPAPI support during compilation or
2. remove those header inclusions and structs with an #if 0

Hi Piero,
./configure --prefix=/home/sriramn/work_x86/installs/dfbwebkit/

This is my configure and it compiled thru without any issues (as long as u
have all the deps compiled and installed)

After some hacking in Makefiles, I managed to ./configure WebKit
(hoorray!). In particular, I'm using branch webkitdfb_2010-11-18.

Now I'm wondering if those errors are due to my toolchain (I'm
cross-compiling for Atom) or they are issues in the source code/side
libraries.
cairo 1.10.0
curl 7.25.0
directfb/direct/fusion 1.4.3
enchant 1.6.0
fontconfig 2.8.0
freetype 2.3.5
gettext 0.18.1.1
glib 2.26.1
gperf 3.0.4
icu 3.8
libpng 1.2.49
libsoup 2.28.2
libxml2 2.7.8
libxslt 1.1.26
Lite 0.8.10
pango 1.27.1
pixman 0.19.2
SQLite3 autoconf-3071100
I couldn't find a list of the required versions for each library, so I
would be grateful if anyone could provide a link to that, if exists.
Also, the code looks allright, my C++ is a bit rusty so I may have
missed something... any idea?
Cheers,
Piero

+3, I've been interested in getting this to compile correctly (on linux)
too.

Hi,
I'm wondering whether the WebKit DFB project is still
running/supported.
I've cloned the git repo and moved to branch webkitdfb_2010-11-18, but
have some issues in cross-compiling it, as my platform doesn't have
GTK+ (error is about 'gail' not found, actually).
Could anyone provide any advice?

libs/WebKitDFB.git and programs/WebKit.git
Which one (if any) should I use?

I have built the browser out of programs/Webkit.git some time back .. its
of an old webkit-baseline-Nov-2010 or so
I noticed the libs/WebkitDFB recently ...and its looks like an updated port
!
may be some one from directfb-dev should be able to throw more light on
this.
