Supported Configurations
|
|
========================
|
|
|
|
This page attempts to document supported build configurations.
|
|
|
|
Windows
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
We support building on Windows XP and newer operating systems using
|
|
Visual Studio 2010 and newer.
|
|
|
|
The following are not fully supported by Mozilla (but may work):
|
|
|
|
* Building without the latest *MozillaBuild* Windows development
|
|
environment
|
|
* Building with Mingw or any other non-Visual Studio toolchain.
|
|
|
|
OS X
|
|
====
|
|
|
|
We support building on OS X 10.6 and newer with the OS X 10.6 SDK.
|
|
|
|
The tree should build with the following OS X releases and SDK versions:
|
|
|
|
* 10.6 Snow Leopard
|
|
* 10.7 Lion
|
|
* 10.8 Mountain Lion
|
|
* 10.9 Mavericks
|
|
|
|
The tree requires building with Clang 3.3 and newer. This corresponds to
|
|
version of 4.2 of Apple's Clang that ships with Xcode. This corresponds
|
|
to Xcode 4.6 and newer. Xcode 4.6 only runs on OS X 10.7.4 and newer.
|
|
So, OS X 10.6 users will need to install a non-Apple toolchain. Running
|
|
``mach bootstrap`` should install an appropriate toolchain from Homebrew
|
|
or MacPorts automatically.
|
|
|
|
The tree should build with GCC 4.4 and newer on OS X. However, this
|
|
build configuration isn't as widely used (and differs from what Mozilla
|
|
uses to produce OS X builds), so it's recommended to stick with Clang.
|
|
|
|
Linux
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
Linux 2.6 and later kernels are supported.
|
|
|
|
Most distributions are supported as long as the proper package
|
|
dependencies are in place. Running ``mach bootstrap`` should install
|
|
packages for popular Linux distributions. ``configure`` will typically
|
|
detect missing dependencies and inform you how to disable features to
|
|
work around unsatisfied dependencies.
|
|
|
|
Clang 3.3 or GCC 4.4 is required to build the tree.
