This README documents the Java Enhancers to the Mozilla web browser.
Currently, the only active sub-project is the Webclient Java API to the
Mozilla web browser. This project also leverages the JavaDOM
sub-project.
Requirements:
* J2SDK 1.3.1 or later
* Apache ant 1.4.1 or later. If running under J2SDK 1.4.2 or later, you
need ant 1.6.1, due to javah issues.
* Successfully built debug enabled Mozilla 1.6 tree
How To Build:
* cd to the directory above your top level mozilla directory and cvs
checkout the Webclient module.
* Modify mozilla/allmakefiles.sh and prepend the contents of the file
"makefiles", in this directory, to add_makefiles section after the
"Common makfiles used by everyone" comment.
* re-run ./configure to generate the java makefiles
* put the "mozilla/dist/bin" directory in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Unix,
or PATH on Win32.
* set the value of the environment var MOZ_JDKHOME to be your J2SDK
directory.
* Create a build.properties file in the mozilla/java directory with the
following contents.
######
build.unix.classes=true
build.win32.classes=false
build.home=/home/edburns/Projects/mozilla/MOZILLA_1_4/mozilla/dist/classes
compile.debug=true
######
Of course, set the values of the above properties correctly according
to your system.
* run "ant" in the mozilla/java directory. This will build webclient
and all dependent libraries.
How to run the Junit tests:
* Make sure junit.jar is properly set in your mozilla/java/build.properties
* Make sure junit.jar is installed in your $ANT_HOME/lib directory
* Set the following variables in your environment
NSPR_LOG_MODULES=webclient:4,webclientstub:4
NSPR_LOG_FILE=logfile.txt
* cd to mozilla/java/webclient
* Kill any running mozilla instances. These will mess up the
profilemanager code.
* run ant test
How to run the test browser (broken as of this writing):
* cd to mozilla/java/webclient/src_moz and run the "runem" batch file to
run the test browser.
