Benoit Chesneau commented on COUCHDB-1426:
------------------------------------------
I don't see the interrest to specify a lib and include paths if they are not
handled in priority. This isn't common at all.
"On the other hand, there's also this large rearrangement to fix the detection
of SM170 which didn't have the anonymous function option. It sure does seem
like there's quite a bit of change for this." Can you elaborate ?
The patch can't be really splitted since all this change is needed. I didn't
want at first introduce this detection, but the way the tests are done
currently mozjs185 will be always took in priotirty if it exists on the disk
even if another path to find js libs has been used. It's probably the same for
1.8.0 though it should be fixed too.
The other way may be having something like --with-js-version= and we test
against that. Though it's still unusual to not use paths defined by the user to
find the correct lib. I guess it will give some headache to maintainers on OS
when they will have to deal with xulrunner, js 1.8 ... and maybe old lib still
installed for old programs. I think the correct way is to discover the versions
in this order :
path given : we should find the version in this path. I think in this case we
should test 1.7.0 -> 1.8.5
if lib or include is not given: 1.8.5 -> 1.8.0 -> ... 1.7.0

> Context:
> To bench the differences between different versions of couchdb I had to test
> against spidermonkey 1.7 and 1.8.5 . 1.8.5 is installed globally in
> /usr/local while the 1.7 version is installed on a temporary path.
> Problem:
> Using --witth-js-include & --with-js-lib configure options aren't enough to
> use the 1.7 version it still want to use spidermonkey 1.8.5 . Removing
> js-config from the path doesn't change anything. I had to uninstall
> spidermonkey 1.8.5 to have these setting working.
