NSPR build instructions
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
On Windows, the NSPR build system needs GNU make and a Unix command-line
|
|
utility suite such as MKS Toolkit, Cygwin, and MSYS. The easiest way to
|
|
get these tools is to install the
|
|
:ref:`MozillaBuild` package.
|
|
|
|
Introduction
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The top level of the NSPR source tree is the ``mozilla/nsprpub``
|
|
directory. Although ``nsprpub`` is a subdirectory under ``mozilla``,
|
|
NSPR is independent of the Mozilla client source tree.
|
|
|
|
Building NSPR consists of three steps:
|
|
|
|
#. run the configure script. You may override the compilers (the CC
|
|
environment variable) or specify options.
|
|
#. build the libraries
|
|
#. build the test programs
|
|
|
|
For example,
|
|
|
|
::
|
|
|
|
# check out the source tree from Mercurial
|
|
hg clone https://hg.mozilla.org/projects/nspr
|
|
# create a build directory
|
|
mkdir target.debug
|
|
cd target.debug
|
|
# run the configure script
|
|
../nspr/configure [optional configure options]
|
|
# build the libraries
|
|
gmake
|
|
# build the test programs
|
|
cd pr/tests
|
|
gmake
|
|
|
|
On Mac OS X, use ``make``, which is GNU ``make``.
|
|
|
|
.. _Configure_options:
|
|
|
|
Configure options
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
Although NSPR uses autoconf, its configure script has two default values
|
|
that are different from most open source projects.
|
|
|
|
#. If the OS vendor provides a compiler (for example, Sun and HP), NSPR
|
|
uses that compiler instead of GCC by default.
|
|
#. NSPR build generates a debug build by default.
|
|
|
|
.. _--disable-debug_--enable-optimize:
|
|
|
|
--disable-debug --enable-optimize
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
Specify these two options to generate an optimized (release) build.
|
|
|
|
These two options can actually be used independently, but it's not
|
|
recommended.
|
|
|
|
--enable-64bit
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
On a dual 32-bit/64-bit platform, NSPR build generates a 32-bit build by
|
|
default. To generate a 64-bit build, specify the ``--enable-64bit``
|
|
configure option.
|
|
|
|
.. _--targetx86_64-pc-mingw32:
|
|
|
|
--target=x86_64-pc-mingw32
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
For 64-bit builds on Windows, when using the mozbuild environment.
|
|
|
|
.. _--enable-win32-target.3DWIN95:
|
|
|
|
--enable-win32-target=WIN95
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
This option is only used on Windows. NSPR build generates a "WINNT"
|
|
configuration by default on Windows for historical reasons. We recommend
|
|
most applications use the "WIN95" configuration. The "WIN95"
|
|
configuration supports all versions of Windows. The "WIN95" name is
|
|
historical; it should have been named "WIN32".
|
|
|
|
To generate a "WIN95" configuration, specify the
|
|
``--enable-win32-target=WIN95`` configure option.
|
|
|
|
.. _--enable-debug-rtl:
|
|
|
|
--enable-debug-rtl
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
This option is only used on Windows. NSPR debug build uses the release C
|
|
run-time library by default. To generate a debug build that uses the
|
|
debug C run-time library, specify the ``--enable-debug-rtl`` configure
|
|
option.
|
|
|
|
.. _Makefile_targets:
|
|
|
|
Makefile targets
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- all (default)
|
|
- clean
|
|
- realclean
|
|
- distclean
|
|
- install
|
|
- release
|
|
|
|
.. _Running_the_test_programs:
|
|
|
|
Running the test programs
|
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
The tests were built above, in the ``pr/tests`` directory.
|
|
|
|
On Mac OS X, they can be executed with the following:
|
|
|
|
.. code::
|
|
|
|
/bin/sh:
|
|
|
|
$ cd pr/tests
|
|
$ DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../dist/lib ./accept
|
|
PASS
|
|
$
|
|
$ # to run all the NSPR tests...
|
|
$
|
|
$ DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../dist/lib ../../../nspr/pr/tests/runtests.sh ../..
|
