507720 - Add a build option for JSHydra

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[David Dahl :ddahl]

Let's make it easy to build JSHydra and associated preprocessed JS - jcranmer would like to use --with-static-js-checking as the ac_add_option

I suppose this would pull the jshydra source from the user repo @ http://hg.mozilla.org/users/Pidgeot18_gmail.com/jshydra

build it, then build the preprocessed js, which is sort of documented in bug 506128

I suggested it as a similarity to the dehydra/treehydra build setup.

Again, similarly to the other *hydras, I would expect that it not pull the jshydra source, but merely use an already-built version.

I suppose bsmedberg would have a better opinion in the matter, so I'm CC'ing him.
