Building V8 on FreeBSD

[Jose Madrigal]

Hello !!!

I been trying to build V8 on FreeBSD due the ports are not updated to the recent version of v8 but I have struggled a lot. I wonder if someone already build v8 on FreeBSD that could point me out in the right direction to achieve it.

Thanks in advance !!

I been trying follow the instructions shown in https://github.com/v8/v8/wiki/Building%20with%20GN

At the point where I must use: 

     > tools/dev/v8gen.py x64.release 

raise a error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

  File "tools/dev/v8gen.py", line 304, in <module>

    sys.exit(gen.main())

  File "tools/dev/v8gen.py", line 298, in main

    return self._options.func()

  File "tools/dev/v8gen.py", line 166, in cmd_gen

    gn_outdir,

  File "tools/dev/v8gen.py", line 208, in _call_cmd

    stderr=subprocess.STDOUT,

  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/subprocess.py", line 573, in check_output

    raise CalledProcessError(retcode, cmd, output=output)

subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command '['/usr/local/bin/python', '-u', 'tools/mb/mb.py', 'gen', '-f', 'infra/mb/mb_config.pyl', '-m', 'developer_default', '-b', 'x64.release', 'out.gn/x64.release']' returned non-zero exit status 1

Any ideas ?

If you run the mb.py command directly (python -u tools/mb/mb.py gen -f infra/mb/mb_config.pyl -m developer_default -b x64.release out.gn/x64.release) does it print a more verbose error message?

I have the same problem and running the command:

python -u tools/mb/mb.py gen -f infra/mb/mb_config.pyl -m developer_default -b x64.release out.gn/x64.release

I got this error:

Writing """\

is_debug = false

target_cpu = "x64"

""" to /home/crugnola/Documents/git/public/v8/out.gn/x64.release/args.gn.

/home/crugnola/Documents/git/public/v8/buildtools/linux64/gn gen out.gn/x64.release --check

  -> returned 1

ERROR at //build/config/BUILDCONFIG.gn:134:15: Reading a variable defined in the same declare_args() call.

If you need to set the value of one arg based on another, put

them in two separate declare_args() calls, one after the other.

  is_debug = !is_official_build
