1044107 - Conditionalize devtools to avoid shipping unnecessary code in Fennec

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(DevTools :: General, defect)

Description

[Richard Newman [:rnewman]]

10:30:03 < jwalker> rnewman: I think you could remove most of the stuff in browser
10:30:09 < jwalker> and gcli
10:30:09 < jryans> rnewman: maybe there is a separate conversation to be had about making it possible to download some of these pieces as an extra component
10:30:16 < jwalker> and jsbeautify
10:30:24 < rnewman> we don't ship the browser stuff already, so that's golden
10:30:53 < rnewman> I don't understand the internal dependencies here, so I'm stabbing in the dark; sorry if that comes across as questioning obvious things
10:31:12 < jwalker> rnewman: here's what I would do
10:31:44 < jwalker> get rif of everything except for the js and jsm files directly under toolkit/devtools
10:32:13 < jwalker> also keep toolkit/devtools/server and toolkit/devtools/transport
10:32:20 < rnewman> then see what breaks?
10:32:26 < jwalker> right
10:32:36 < jwalker> those are obvious 'needs'
10:33:06 < jwalker> it's possible we could hack things for ex
10:33:29 < jwalker> toolkit/server/actors/gcli shouldn't be needed

This isn't relevant anymore, closing
(DevTools code base lives in different dir and GCLI is removed long time ago)
