BlueFyre: W32 2004-03-25 AthlonXP (O2/G7/GL/SSE, .NET 2003)

BlueFyre · Post by **BlueFyre** » March 25th, 2004, 4:38 pm

These are all Trunk Builds.

I built Mozilla Firefox from CVS with MSVC++ .NET 2003 using some optimisations.

Optimised for Athlon XP and some newer Durons with SSE (-O2 -G7 -GL -arch:SSE):
http://pryan.org/firefox/BlueFyre/Firef ... GL-SSE.zip (~7.80MB - zip)
The above build will work on systems that support the SSE instruction set ONLY.

[Note] Extracting will make a folder named Firefox

checkout start: Thu Mar 25 06:51:15 PST 2004

I should note that I can't guarantee that these builds will work with Windows 95 (Microsoft has removed Windows 95 as a target platform on their .NET 2003 version of development tools), but they will work with Windows 98/NT4 or better, and probably on Windows 95 too.

You can find a copy of these builds (and my older builds) on pryan's mirror:
http://pryan.org/firefox/BlueFyre

My .mozconfig is as follows:

. $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig
ac_add_options --disable-tests
ac_add_options --disable-debug
ac_add_options --enable-optimize="-O2 -G7 -GL -arch:SSE"
ac_add_options --enable-static
ac_add_options --disable-shared

My builds have the following preference set:
pref("general.useragent.vendorComment", "BlueFyre");

I've included a copy of my .mozconfig in the build folder itself.

i just have a question: your builds are usually one of the last to get posted, and i was wondering if that affects the build at all, in terms of code, fixes, etc

I think that's just when BlueFyre gets to the forum. The build seems to be available ages before the announcement. The current build,
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7b) Gecko/20040326 Firefox/0.8.0+ (BlueFyre)
appears to be missing at least one of the bug fixes in the "official" nightly:

Still looks blank to me. Oh... now it doesn't. Ugh... Strange...
