ok, so I following instructions for compiling mozilla on Windows:
cd mozilla\config
nmake /f makefile.win
cd ..
nmake /f client.mak
from http://www.mozilla.org/classic/build/classic-win.html
first of all, in my unzipped directory there is no makefile.win, only makefile.in, so I update the word in command.
Initially, my computer could not find the nmake command, so I downloaded and extracted NMAKE15.exe from Microsoft's FTP. Is that right? Was that then right nmake to go for? Notably, I already have Visual Studio 6.0. Should it be adapted somehow to this issue?
Once I ran nmake, I got:
$ nmake /f makefile.in
Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 1.50
Copyright (c) Microsoft Corp 1988-94. All rights reserved.
autoconf.mk(152) : fatal error U1034: syntax error : separator missing
Stop.
around line 152 the autoconf.mk lines are as follows:
ifdef MOZ_LIBART_CFLAGS
ifndef MOZ_INTERNAL_LIBART_LGPL
MOZ_LIBART_CFLAGS := ($MOZ_LIBART_CFLAGS)/libart_lgpl
endif
endif
What do I do now?
please help me compile Firefox
