These instructions assume you are building on an OSX system with Mac Ports installed having the qt4-mac (4.7.1) port installed.
Checkout the Code
You'll need to check out WebKit from SVN or QtWebKit from Git
svn checkout http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/trunk WebKit # WebKit SVN Trunk
OR
git clone git://gitorious.org/webkit/webkit.git # Git mirror
Build WebKit
First follow the instructions there to get the sources. The Qt port is part of the WebKit source tree, so you don't need anything extra.
If you are planning to build with video enabled, you must install qt-mobility
as a pre-requisite. It's available in MacPorts, but can also be built from source if you need an up-to-date version:
git clone http://git.gitorious.org/qt-mobility/qt-mobility.git git checkout 1.1 ./configure make sudo make install
Finally, set the QTDIR environment variable to Qt 4.x's installation path and make sure Qt 4.x's qmake is the first qmake in your PATH (typically by running export PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$PATH
). If your qmake binary has a different name, e.g. when using Debian, use the --qmake= option to specify the name.
If you also build other ports on the same machine, make sure to zap the build directories (WebKitBuild/) first. You can also override the build directory with the WEBKITOUTPUTDIR environment variable.
Build WebKit and the Qt test browser with
WebKit/Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --qt
build-webkit
(see above) also supports special variable for specifying the OBJDIR directory, as well as some configure and build arguments
WEBKITOUTPUTDIR=`pwd`/qtbuild WebKit/Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --qt --makeargs="-j20 -s" --no-video --debug
If there is a problem with include file, try to pass more arguments to the build-webkit script, e.g. (all in one line)
INCLUDEPATH+=/Library/Frameworks/QtCore.framework/Versions/4/Headers INCLUDEPATH+=/Library/Frameworks/QtGui.framework/Versions/4/Headers INCLUDEPATH+=/Library/Frameworks/QtNetwork.framework/Versions/4/Headers INCLUDEPATH+=/Library/Frameworks/QtXmlPatterns.framework/Versions/4/Headers
Finish Up and Run
Rerunning the build should recompile CSSParser.cpp and link correctly.
${WEBKITSRCDIR}/Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --qt --qmake=qmake-4.5 --makeargs="-j2" -spec macx-g++ --no-video --debug
Finally start the demo Qt browser:
${WEBKITSRCDIR}/Tools/Scripts/run-launcher --qt --debug # After this, check the dock and you'll see an icon for a Qt console app ...
