Creating Toolchain Archives
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
There are various scripts in the repository for producing archives
|
|
of the build tools (e.g. compilers and linkers) required to build.
|
|
|
|
Clang
|
|
=====
|
|
|
|
See the ``build/build-clang`` directory. Read ``build/build-clang/README``
|
|
for more.
|
|
|
|
Windows
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
The ``build/windows_toolchain.py`` script is used to build and manage
|
|
Windows toolchain archives containing Visual Studio executables, SDKs,
|
|
etc.
|
|
|
|
The way Firefox build automation works is an archive containing the
|
|
toolchain is produced and uploaded to an internal Mozilla server. The
|
|
build automation will download, verify, and extract this archive before
|
|
building. The archive is self-contained so machines don't need to install
|
|
Visual Studio, SDKs, or various other dependencies. Unfortunately,
|
|
Microsoft's terms don't allow Mozilla to distribute this archive
|
|
publicly. However, the same tool can be used to create your own copy.
|
|
|
|
Configuring Your System
|
|
-----------------------
|
|
|
|
It is **highly** recommended to perform this process on a fresh installation
|
|
of Windows 7 or 10 (such as in a VM). Installing all updates through
|
|
Windows Update is not only acceptable - it is encouraged. Although it
|
|
shouldn't matter.
|
|
|
|
Next, install Visual Studio 2017 Community. The download link can be found
|
|
at https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/community/.
|
|
Be sure to follow these install instructions:
|
|
|
|
1. Choose a ``Custom`` installation and click ``Next``
|
|
2. Select ``Programming Languages`` -> ``Visual C++`` (make sure all sub items are
|
|
selected)
|
|
3. Under ``Windows and Web Development`` uncheck everything except
|
|
``Universal Windows App Development Tools`` and the items under it
|
|
(should be ``Tools (1.3.1)...`` and the ``Windows 10 SDK``).
|
|
|
|
Once Visual Studio 2017 Community has been installed, from a checkout
|
|
of mozilla-central, run something like the following to produce a ZIP
|
|
archive::
|
|
|
|
$ ./mach python build/windows_toolchain.py create-zip vs2017_15.8.4
|
|
|
|
The produced archive will be the argument to ``create-zip`` + ``.zip``.

Firefox for Android with Gradle
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
To build Firefox for Android with Gradle in automation, archives
|
|
containing both the Gradle executable and a Maven repository
|
|
comprising the exact build dependencies are produced and uploaded to
|
|
an internal Mozilla server. The build automation will download,
|
|
verify, and extract these archive before building. These archives
|
|
provide a self-contained Gradle and Maven repository so that machines
|
|
don't need to fetch additional Maven dependencies at build time.
|
|
(Gradle and the downloaded Maven dependencies can be both
|
|
redistributed publicly.)
|
|
|
|
Archiving the Gradle executable is straight-forward, but archiving a
|
|
local Maven repository is not. Therefore a toolchain job exists for
|
|
producing the required archives, `android-gradle-dependencies`. The
|
|
job runs in a container based on a custom Docker image and spawns a
|
|
Sonatype Nexus proxying Maven repository process in the background.
|
|
The job builds Firefox for Android using Gradle and the in-tree Gradle
|
|
configuration rooted at ``build.gradle``. The spawned proxying Maven
|
|
repository downloads external dependencies and collects them. After
|
|
the Gradle build completes, the job archives the Gradle version used
|
|
to build, and the downloaded Maven repository, and exposes them as
|
|
Task Cluster artifacts.
|
|
|
|
To update the version of Gradle in the archive produced, update
|
|
``gradle/wrapper/gradle-wrapper.properties``. Be sure to also update
|
|
the SHA256 checksum to prevent poisoning the build machines!
|
|
|
|
To update the versions of Gradle dependencies used, update
|
|
``dependencies`` sections in the in-tree Gradle configuration rooted
|
|
at ``build.gradle``. Once you are confident your changes build
|
|
locally, push a fresh build to try. The `android-gradle-dependencies`
|
|
toolchain should run automatically, fetching your new dependencies and
|
|
wiring them into the appropriate try build jobs.
|
|
|
|
To update the version of Sonatype Nexus, update the `sonatype-nexus`
|
|
`fetch` task definition.
|
|
|
|
To modify the Sonatype Nexus configuration, typically to proxy a new
|
|
remote Maven repository, modify
|
|
`taskcluster/scripts/misc/android-gradle-dependencies/nexus.xml`.
|
|
|
|
There is also a toolchain job that fetches the Android SDK and related
|
|
packages. To update the versions of packaged fetched, modify
|
|
`python/mozboot/mozboot/android-packages.txt` and update the various
|
|
in-tree versions accordingly.
