Thank you /!\ # The traditional Mozilla build system relied on going through the entire # build tree a number of times with different targets, and many of the # things happening at each step required other things happening in previous # steps without any documentation of those dependencies. # # This new build system tries to start afresh by establishing what files or # operations are needed for the build, and applying the necessary rules to # have those in place, relying on make dependencies to get them going. # # As of writing, only building non-compiled parts of Firefox is supported # here (a few other things are also left out). This is a starting point, with # the intent to grow this build system to make it more complete. # # This file contains rules and dependencies to get things working. The intent # is for a Makefile to define some dependencies and variables, and include # this file. What needs to be defined there, and ends up being generated by # python/mozbuild/mozbuild/backend/fastermake.py is the following: # - TOPSRCDIR/TOPOBJDIR, respectively the top source directory and the top # object directory # - PYTHON, the path to the python executable # - ACDEFINES, which contains a set of -Dvar=name to be used during # preprocessing # - INSTALL_MANIFESTS, which defines the list of base directories handled # by install manifests, see further below # - MANIFEST_TARGETS, which defines the file paths of chrome manifests, see # further below # # A convention used between this file and the Makefile including it is that # global Make variables names are uppercase, while "local" Make variables # applied to specific targets are lowercase. # Targets to be triggered for a default build default: $(addprefix install-,$(INSTALL_MANIFESTS)) # Explicit files to be built for a default build default: $(addprefix $(TOPOBJDIR)/,$(MANIFEST_TARGETS)) default: $(TOPOBJDIR)/dist/bin/greprefs.js default: $(TOPOBJDIR)/dist/bin/platform.ini default: $(TOPOBJDIR)/dist/bin/webapprt/webapprt.ini # Targets from the recursive make backend to be built for a default build default: $(TOPOBJDIR)/config/makefiles/xpidl/xpidl ifeq (cocoa,$(MOZ_WIDGET_TOOLKIT)) # Mac builds require to copy things in dist/bin/*.app default: $(MAKE) -C $(TOPOBJDIR)/$(MOZ_BUILD_APP)/app repackage endif .PHONY: FORCE # Extra define to trigger some workarounds.
