You need a Pentium with at least a 133 MHz processor and at least 250 megs
|
|
(NTFS partition) or 500 megs (FAT partition) of hard drive space. You need
|
|
to have a minimum of 64 megs of memory in order to build this tree. These
|
|
numbers are approximations.</LI>
|
|
|
|
<LI>
|
|
The preferred platform is NT 4.0. NT 3.51 will also work, and Win95 might
|
|
work if you're lucky. Maybe.</LI>
|
|
|
|
<LI>
|
|
Install MSVC. If you don't choose to have the MSVC install modify your
|
|
environment variables for PATH, INCLUDE, and LIB information, be sure to
|
|
run VCVARS32.BAT out of the MSVC bin directory prior to attempting to build.</LI>
|
|
|
|
<LI>
|
|
Download and install GNU tools. Put them in your path.</LI>
|
|
|

|

Install NGLayout source.</LI>

There are several environment variables you will need to set, either manually
|
|
or via a script within a command session, or by setting them in your system
|
|
environment located through the Control Panel | System icon.</LI>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<P> <B>Note: There is an additional variable for building NGLayout!
|
|
Use this list carefully!</B>

build)</LI>

set MOZ_SRC=(top of your tree, drive letter and path, i.e. set MOZ_SRC=d:\mozilla_src.

The topmost directory under this should be mozilla)</LI>
|

<LI>
|
|
set MOZ_TOOLS=(location of the bin directory containing your GNU tools.

The build looks for MOZ_TOOLS\bin\gmake.exe, so make sure your MOZ_TOOLS

is figured appropriately)</LI>

You need to be running a vanilla command prompt. Other shells may work,

but you might have to tweak makefiles.</LI>

<B>Build the NGLayout:</B> This will do a complete build of the source

tree. You will end up with a viewer.exe at the end. The viewer.exe will

be in your dist\win32_[OD].obj\bin directory (O will be used when you don't
|
|
set MOZ_DEBUG; D will be used when you set MOZ_DEBUG).</LI>

Once you have built the system, do this to run the viewer program (the
|
|
viewer program is a simple test program that uses the nsIWebWidget API
|
|
to embed a web widget object). The viewer program has a few basic menu
|
|
items, include "Samples" which load sample tests.</LI>

This build process does not use Visual C++ generated project files for
|
|
several reasons having to do with (among other things) size, maintainability,
|
|
and the long term desire to start using more of tools like gmake, or plug
|
|
and play developer tools. This does not preclude you from using the Visual
|
|
C++ IDE, or it's debugger. Once you have built a viewer.exe do this to
|
|
run it under the debugger:</LI>
