Thunderbird Build error

[afreen bano]

Hello,

I have build Thunderbird from source code which I have downloaded from mozilla Repository nad refer below link for building Thunderbird
Link : https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/doc ... ependecies
Also create ".mozconfig file " in the main source directory.

Entry in .mozconfig file are as follows:


# Thunderbird

# Options passed to client.mk, usually controlling cvs checkout and update:

mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/builddir

mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=mail

# Options for the command line of ./configure:

ac_add_options --enable-application=mail

ac_add_options –enable-debug


Save and close
Then I build Thunderbird successfully.

I got Thunderbird binary in TBcode/buildir/mozilla/dist/bin---then Thunderbird binary.

TBcode my main thunderbird source code directory.
"buildir" is that directory which is created after build thunderbird.

My problem is that If when i build my thunderbird i am getting this error " y.tab.c:148:7: error: implicit declaration of function 'Pk11install_yyerror' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]" and please also refer attachment.

Please anyone suggest me hoe to resolve this error ?
And how to maintain Thunderbird build environment in my system?

Hello Xunxun1982,

The error which I am getting at Thunderbird build time. When I run "make -f client.mk build"

And I installed packages by refer this link
"https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Developer_Guide/Build_Instructions/Linux_Prerequisites
ans also install these packages in my ubuntu 12.04 build machine

# sudo apt-get install zip unzip mercurial g++ make autoconf2.13 yasm libgtk2.0-dev libglib2.0-dev libdbus-1-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev libasound2-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libiw-dev libxt-dev mesa-common-dev libgstreamer0.10-dev libgstreamer-plugins-base0.10-dev libpulse-dev

AND
#$ sudo apt-get install libatk1.0-dbg libc6-dbg libcairo2-dbg \
libfontconfig1-dbg libgcc1-dbg libglib2.0-0-dbg libgnomeui-0-dbg \
libgnomevfs2-0-dbg libgnutls13-dbg libgtk2.0-0-dbg libice6-dbg \

The error is easy to be solved, but I don't know whether you are familiar with Compiler Macro.

The error is caused by -Werror, so you can directly remove -Werror or -Werror-implicit-function-declaration from security/nss/coreconf/Linux.mk (I think it's here)

If you want to know the reason, maybe you use a different GCC version (4.6/4.7/4.8/4.9?). Different GCC version can cause different results.

Hello Xunxun1982,

Thanks for you reply,

I went ot that path for resolving above build issue but i am not getting hoe to remove " -Werror-implicit-function-declaration"

I am using GCC Version is "gcc/precise uptodate 4:4.6.3-1ubuntu5"


Please reply what I need to do ?

How can I properly maintain my Thunderbird build environment ?
