In preparation for our next release, we have added a release android.
- All features have already implemented. But we need time to refactor them for opening codes. Please wait~!!
Step-1 : Installing Development Tool Reference the Installing Development Tools section below.
https://webkit.org/webkit-on-windows/#installing-developer-tools
- Recommend to locate "C:/GnuWin32" instead of "C:/Program Files (x86)/GnuWin32" directory when installing Bison, Flex and GPerf. Because you can meet errors like "error calling gperf failed" when compiling WebCoreDerivedSources.
Step-2 : Generating Visual Studio Solution files
- using command-line
cd webkit
mkdir WebKitBuild
cd WebKitBuild
cmake -G "Visual Studio 14 2015 Win64" -D PORT=WinCairo ..
- using CMake-gui
3-1) Select sling/webkit directory in "Where is the source code" field.
Input sling/webkt/WebKitBuild directory name in "Where to build the binaries" field.
3-2) Modify PORT name to "WinCairo".
3-3) Click Configure button.
3-4) If the configure is done, Click Generate button.
Step-3 : Build
- Open webkit.sln in WebKitBuild
- Build Solution x64 Debug/Release.
Step-4 : Launch MiniBrowser
- Opent WebKitBuild/bin64/MiniBrowser.exe
