Ah... to come so close to a successful build this time! I made the
NS_REINTERPRET_CAST change as Henry suggested, which let me cruise
nicely past that problem. I then ran into the problem of one of the
tests failing, looking for a non-existent dll.
This I remedied by create a .mozconfig with the --disable-tests
option.
Starting a new day, I decided to pull any "updates" from the CVS, and
started a new compile. This time configure failed after creating
makefiles in c-sdk/ldap directories with:
creating libraries/libldap/Makefile
creating libraries/liblber/Makefile
./configure: cd: rogramming/mozilla: No such file or directory
*** Fix above errors and then restart with "gmake.exe -f client.mk
build"
gmake: *** [f:/programming/mozilla/Makefile] Error 1
[KILGORE|f:/programming/mozilla]
It seems to me that something tried to interpret the directory, and
decided that "f:/programming" was indeed "f: escaped p" leaving the
'rogramming' directory.
Taking the easy way out, I once again went back to my .mozconfig and
added --disable-ldap
This time, my compile completed, and everything seemed more or less
ducky. I moved into my dist/bin directory and typed 'mozilla'. The
splash screen came up, and after a few moments of registering new
components, I was faced with the nasty dialogue stating: ###!!!
ASSERTION: NS_ENSURE_TRUE(NS_SUCCEEDED(... after which I was allowed
to chose 'cancel' or 'continue'... both having the same net effect.
Of course, I could be guilty on this one because I didn't do a 'make
distclean' after adding my --disable flags; just for the matter of
taking so long to compile in the first place. I guess that is my next
step, to see if I can get a working build going.
Makes me wonder if I've reached the official level of 'boat anchor'
yet?
