57200 - Need to be able to build "embedding" separately from seamonkey

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Build Config, defect, P3)

Description

[Doug Turner (:dougt)]

We need the ablity to build the base embedding requirements from the mozilla
tree without having to build unneeded components such as seamonkey specific
bits, mailnews, ect.

I checked in a embed.mk files to the root level of mozilla.  This will build
just what is required by gtkEmbed.

Next step is for leaf to build gtkEmbed using this makefile instead of the
client.mk files.

Leaf, I am assigning this bug to you.  after doing your morning verification
builds, could you do a clobber_all then build gtkEmbed against this makefile?

that's a negative, poppa bear. We need to keep the built tree around in case we
need to do depend build respins. We *could* do something along the lines of
producing an embedding build at an odd hour with a separate at job, though.
Thereby not requiring a separate build machine for embedding release stuff.

Unless, of course, you need builds done in a time-critical fashion, in which
case, we're going to need another release machine for embedding. Feedback welcome.

These builds are not time critical (now).  Can you spin these builds before you
spin Seamonkey?

If equipment is a problem, let me know.

I could swear this is a dup of another bug to set up standalone embedding
builds, but I can't seem to find it.  marking future for now.
