Help please, the troublesome build stage
Bo Yang
The very very troublesome mozilla build process.
Now, I am sure I have followed every instruction in the
building document. I make the configure stage through, and
then I fix the xpidl.exe crash problem, and finally I can
make my build process going fluently. But, but , but , after
almost a day effort, ultimately I am stuck in the following
error:
make[5]: *** No rule to make target `xpcomglue.lib', needed by `libs'.
Stop.
I have searched with Google, searched the groups archive, only found
nothing mentioned my problem.
Help please!

This advice is too late to save you pain and suffering, but Mozilla is
moving to a installer that has everything you need except the
compiler. It's not quite official yet, but see http://
benjamin.smedbergs.us/blog/2007-01-12/mozillabuild-rc1/ for the
release candidate build which is going to be used.
Hope that helps.

Actually, it's been put up on the ftp server already:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/libraries/win32/MozillaBuildSetup-1.0.exe
Seems to work for me, yay :) (VC7.1, trunk, knowledge carried over from
before but I rewrote the mozconfig anyway)

Does this mean a bug in the Mozilla 1.8.0 Branch?
Mook
Could you give some context? A few more lines of the build log, the
directory it's in, what it last did...

I want to compile xulrunner, and I get the source by cvs commands:
cvs -f client.mk -r MOZILLA_1_8_0_BRANCH checkout MOZ_CO_PROJECT=xulrunner
I use MSVC6 for my compiler.
My mozconfig is as following:
mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/obj-@CONFIG_GUESS@
mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=xulrunner
ac_add_options --enable-application=xulrunner
I also try to MSCV6 to compiler the version 1.8, but the same error
stop me too.
The error as below:

And if I miss something important, please point it out, I will post

Thanks in advance!
