2.0.0 build error in SpiderMonkey (jsscan.c)

[Conrad Pankoff]

Decided to give the shiny new(ish) 2.0.0 release a go today, after
having been running various incarnations of HEAD for a while, but was
met with this about 20 minutes into compilation:

scons: *** [third_party/js-1.7/jsscan.o] Error 1
scons: building terminated because of errors.

It seems that jsautokw.h isn't being generated (or maybe found)
correctly by Makefile.ref, included with SpiderMonkey. When I ran
`make -f Makefile.ref` in third_party/js-1.7/ it worked fine, so I'm
guessing scons messes about with the environment just enough to break
it. This is on a clean, minimal debian squeeze install with build-
essential and xulrunner-dev.

What version of scons do you have installed?

fwiw probably moving to V8 if you want to try that

scons --usev8

2.0.0.final.0.r5023 apparently. The version that comes with debian squeeze.

Is V8 support up to scratch with SpiderMonkey now? Last I heard it was still experimental, but it'd be great if it was ready to use regularly.

[Scott Hernandez]

It is still a work-in-progress but usable for sure. You may want to
track this issue (and linked ones):
https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-2407

I'd categorize it as beta and needing testing, mostly since it hasn't
seen as much use in mongodb as the default (spidermonkey).

[Dwight Merriman]

not quite but it will be and is moving out of experimental.  2.0 users spidermonkey.
