BlueFyre: W32 2004-04-13 AthlonXP (O2/G7/GL/SSE, .NET 2003)

Post by BlueFyre »

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 (~7.50MB - zip)
http://pryan.org/firefox/BlueFyre/Firef ... -GL-SSE.7z (~5.5MB - 7z)
The above build will work on systems that support the SSE instruction set ONLY.

[Note] Extracting will make a folder named Firefox

checkout start: Tue Apr 13 06:35:22 PDT 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.

Working good except for one thing. Not sure if it's related to your build or related to me not installing the build fresh. But my Statusbar Clock 1.3.1 is busted now. It will read the time ok, but for the date it just displays the argument #date#. Where #date# should be displaying the actual date, not that argument.

Ok just tested with MozJF's build and the extension is working again. So I guess it's build specific bug. Maybe something you changed.

Bluefyre: try doing the same thing I"ve done. You're building firefox with a wrong version of mozilla code. I mean that firefox 0.9 and then 1.0 will be [b]both(/b] based on Mozilla 1.7 code, not trunk (1.8alpha, beta, 1.8 final and so on).

It is clearly explained on firefox roadmap ;o)

After all, you're free and you can do what you want to do ;o)

I'd like to know if I'm using the wrong version too. I kind of doubt it as I'm getting the new bugs as well. So I'll keep an eye on this thread.

cvs co -r MOZILLA_1_7_BRANCH mozilla/client.mk should get you onto the 1.7 branch - pull using that. I imagine there will be a FIREBIRD_0_9_BRANCH some time in the near future as well.

I am not sure if just replacing client.mk (and thus setting MOZ_CO_TAG) would roll back changes... So you may need to re-pull the whole tree. So, mmoy, in your case you may want to do a cvs diff -u first to isolate your local changes (they sound very cool :)).

To check: read the top bits of client.mk; under the Checkout Tags section, MOZ_CO_TAG should be set.

(Note: I'm building from the trunk, myself - this stuff is from the forums, especially from people like MozJF. Thanks for the knowledge :))
poot.
