FireFox compling error.

Post by yuanbing »

Hi folks:
I just downloaded source code of FireFox 0.8 and tried to build it. But I got the following compling error: :cry:

Here is my .mozconfig file:

CXX=g++
CPP=cpp
AS=as
LD=ld
ac_add_options --disable-accessibility
ac_add_options --disable-activex
LDFLAGS=-mwindows -Wl --enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc

I'm using gcc version 3.3.1. I was exactly following instructions shown at http://gemal.dk/mozilla/build.htm

Could anyone shed a light on it?

Thanks

You would have been better off posting this in the FireFox builds fourm. http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewforum.php?f=23
Important info building under linux, win, mac?

I have built FireFox before, but I used MSVC.

This may help you dropped the quotes in this command.
LDFLAGS="-mwindows -Wl,--enable-runtime-pseudo-reloc"
