|
|
|
|
object directory
|
|
A directory holding the output of the build system. The build
|
|
system attempts to isolate all file modifications to this
|
|
directory. By convention, object directories are commonly
|
|
directories under the source directory prefixed with **obj-**.
|
|
e.g. **obj-firefox**.
|
|
|
|
mozconfig
|
|
A shell script used to configure the build system.
|
|
|
|
configure
|
|
A generated shell script which detects the current system
|
|
environment, applies a requested set of build configuration
|
|
options, and writes out metadata to be consumed by the build
|
|
system.
|
|
|
|
config.status
|
|
An executable file produced by **configure** that takes the
|
|
generated build config and writes out files used to build the
|
|
tree. Traditionally, config.status writes out a bunch of
|
|
Makefiles.
|
|
|
|
install manifest
|
|
A file containing metadata describing file installation rules.
|
|
A large part of the build system consists of copying files
|
|
around to appropriate places. We write out special files
|
|
describing the set of required operations so we can process the
|
|
actions efficiently. These files are install manifests.
|
|
|
|
clobber build
|
|
A build performed with an initially empty object directory. All
|
|
build actions must be performed.
|
|
|
|
incremental build
|
|
A build performed with the result of a previous build in an
|
|
object directory. The build should not have to work as hard because
|
|
it will be able to reuse the work from previous builds.
|
|
|
|
mozinfo
|
|
An API for accessing a common and limited subset of the build and
|
|
run-time configuration. See :ref:`mozinfo`.
