621136 - Lightning 32/64 bit universal builds broken due to not referencing the correct location for components

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Calendar :: Build Config, defect)

Attachment: The fix

Currently the universal builds for Mac are packaged with binary components like this:

platform/Darwin_x86-gcc3/components/libcalbasecomps.dylib
platform/Darwin_x86_64-gcc3/components/libcalbasecomps.dylib

The components.manifest just references the component:

binary-components libcalbasecomps.dylib

This is no longer valid as with the new manifest system it doesn't go searching per-platform.

Given the new method, my proposal is to locate them like this:

components/Darwin_x86-gcc3/libcalbasecomps.dylib
components/Darwin_x86_64-gcc3/libcalbasecomps.dylib

and use a components.manifest like this:

binary-component Darwin_x86-gcc3/libcalbasecomps.dylib ABI=Darwin_x86-gcc3
binary-component Darwin_x86_64-gcc3/libcalbasecomps.dylib ABI=Darwin_x86_64-gcc3

This both simplifies the layout and restores the functionality.

I'm attaching a patch that will do this, with that patch Lightning works for me on trunk Thunderbird. There are try server builds being generated and will be available here in a few hours:

I don't mind who wants to review it. I'll land when I get review and we can always follow-up.

Ok, so the try server builds are up. Not everything works in Lightning, but at least you can view the current month.
