--------------------------------------------------------------
*Q:* Why do we ever need to build XULRunner?
*A:* There is no official build of XULRunner for Linux x86-64. We have to build it
ourself.
h3. Prerequisites
You need some libraries to build XULRunner. If you are using Ubuntu, execute:
sudo apt-get build-dep firefox
sudo apt-get install mercurial libasound2-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libnotify-dev
libxt-dev libiw-dev mesa-common-dev autoconf2.13 yasm
Prerequisites for other
https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Developer_Guide/Build_Instructions/Linux...
Linux distributives and
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Build_Documentation#Build_prerequisites OSes.
h3. Getting the source
To clone Mozilla 1.9.1 repository, execute:
You may find links to other Mozilla versions
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Mozilla_Source_Code_(Mercurial)#mozilla-...
here.
Then you need to select a dotversion to build:
hg tags
It prints a long list of tags:
...
FIREFOX_3_5_17_RELEASE 27311:d5eeb3c15214
...
Let's select the most recent release. In this case it is FIREFOX_3_5_17_RELEASE with
revision number 27311.
Update to it:
hg update 27311
h3. Creation of configuration file
Now you need to create '.mozconfig' file inside 191src folder with the following
content:
##########################################################
ac_add_options --enable-application=xulrunner
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --disable-tests
# the following line is needed for Ubuntu/Debian only
ac_add_options --disable-crashreporter
mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/../xulrunner_build191
#java
ac_add_options --with-java-include-path=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/include
ac_add_options --with-java-bin-path=/usr/lib/jvm/java-6-sun/bin
##########################################################
These options are tested under Ubuntu 10.10 x86-32 with Sun Java 6 installed. You may need
to specify
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Configuring_Build_Options other options for
other systems.
h3. Building
From 191src execute:
make -f client.mk build
h3. Separating binaries
cd ..
cp -L -r ./xulrunner_build191/dist/bin/* xulrunner-1.9.1
That's it! Now you have XULRunner binaries inside xulrunner-1.9.1 folder.
h3. Useful stuff
Register xulrunner for user:
./xulrunner --register-user
Register xulrunner for system:
sudo ./xulrunner --register-global
Information about xulrunner registred for user lies here:
/home/user_name/.gre.d/1.9.conf
Information about xulrunner registred globally lies here:
/etc/gre.d/1.9.conf
