I am trying to build WebKit on Windows. There are a large number of bash and perl scripts plus makefiles which rely on Cygwin tools.
My original problem was that cat and cp refused to work when given filenames starting with/dev/fs/. I 'solved' this by modifying the scripts to run "mount -c /dev/fs". Despite this there are still a couple of instances where I get the following errors: cp /home/JEvans/WebKit/Source/WebCore/bindings/scripts/CodeGenerator.pm /home/JEvans/WebKit/bin/DEBUG_~1/obj/WebCore/scripts/CodeGenerator.pm cp: /dev/fs/U/home/JEvans/WebKit/Source/WebCore/bindings/scripts/CodeGenerator.pm: No such file or directory Sadly CodeGenerator.pm does exist in that directory - it appears cp is getting confused. Can anyone explain what might be going wrong here?
