Building Qt WebKit with media support

vissi

Hi,

My goal is to enable navigator.getUserMedia in Qt WebKit.
I tried building Qt-WebKit (5.5 branch) with following options:

./Tools/Scripts/build-webkit --qt --media-stream --media-source --media-capture --video

Platforms tried: macx-clang, win32-g++
However, I get the following error:

Could NOT find IDL file for interface "MediaStream"
...
make[2]: *** [sub-DerivedSources-pri-make_for_qmake] Error 2
make[1]: *** [sub-Source-WebCore-WebCore-pro-qmake_all] Error 2
make: *** [incremental] Error 2

Nevetheless,
$ find . -name MediaStream.idl
./Source/WebCore/Modules/mediastream/MediaStream.idl

Such file exists, probably the build system looks in another location.

Please help me solve this problem. Can I get more verbose build output?

@vissi Did you find any resolution to this?

guess it's not actual anymore, but having same issue with 5.6.0

to resolve it you can add following into your qtwebkit/Source/WebCore/DerivedSources.pri

enable?(MEDIA_STREAM) {
IDL_BINDINGS +=
$$PWD/Modules/mediastream/MediaStream.idl
### you might need some others idl from this folder too
}

and search for generateBindings.commands in same file and add "--include Modules/mediastream"
