401009 - Kill DeploymentSymbols

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Camino Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

[Mark Mentovai]

We should get rid of DeploymentSymbols on the trunk and 1.8 branch (Camino 1.6).  This build configuration was used in the really old days to get release builds with -g, to provide something useful for Talkback to chew on.  An environment variable, CHIMERA_OPT_SYMBOLS, was set by the release build script to influence this behavior.  In modern times, our builds are produced by tinderbox, and we push the -g in from the build system (ultimately from mozconfig) like normal people.  DeploymentSymbols is no longer used.

This bug involves dropping the DeploymentSymbols configuration from Camino.xcodeproj.  On the 1.8 branch, we can also take the CHIMERA_OPT_SYMBOLS out of camino/Makefile.in.  (It's already gone on the trunk.)

Killed on the trunk and MOZILLA_1_8_BRANCH for 1.6b1.

Both trunk and branch still have "ReleaseSymbols.xcconfig" files in their projects (and in camino/config); don't those belong to the dead DeploymentSymbols?

[Mark Mentovai]

Yes, we should remove the file refs from the projects and cvs remove the files.
