Cannot build on windows

Open zaaack opened this issue 7 years ago • 4 comments

I hit exactly the same issue in this comment https://github.com/gtk-rs/webkit2gtk-rs/issues/4#issuecomment-313803594, is there any updates for windows support?

Not that I know of. I don't know if any of the maintainers of gtk-rs has windows. cc @GuillaumeGomez @EPashkin

MSYS2 don't have build soup, javascriptcore, webkit2 packages, so this need fixed before. See https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/issues/1089 and linked issues for webkit (seems authors solved soup and javascriptcore problem).

MSYS2 have package libsoup, but not webkit2gtk / javascriptcore.

Alex suggest we submit a solution to build windows version.

The webkit2gtk-4.0 package has been abandoned (source: https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/issues/3484#issuecomment-715288124) and is no longer included in the MSYS2 package repositories. This is because WebKit2GTK was not building on Windows, although WebKit itself (as seen with QtWebKit) does indeed build. As this is an upstream issue, largely unrelated to MSYS2, could an issue be opened for the WebKitGTK component on the WebKit Bugzilla?
