Hi Jörg,

thanks for your introduction and your plan to port WebKit is a very noble one. I would like to help with this, but I can not before April next year. Are you aware of the Nirvana project on Berlios? <www.berlios.de>. You will probably find the code in the lemmon branch very interesting.

As for the jamfile question, it appears you have copied the Haiku build system?
calling "jam -a" terminates with the following result:

don't know how to make <build>settype
don't know how to make <build>mimeset
don't know how to make <build>setversion

These are "build tools" for which the code is actually part of the Haiku source tree. You would need to copy the source of those, or modify the Jamrules (Ingo would know which one) so that it just uses a prebuilt version.

Hope this helps,
-Stephan

Well, one fault might be that I overwrote the "BuildConfig" file.
Yes I already knew of nrivana. What is important to me is, that HAIKU gets a high quality Browser an a native part of the Project. When you are ready to take part un our efforts, then let us know in this list.

Yours

Joerg
