627181 - Set up release builds of XULRunner 2.0

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Release Engineering :: General, enhancement, P2)

Description

[Dave Townsend [:mossop] (PTO until Aug 21st)]

We need release builds of the XULRunner SDK at least so that developers can compile against it. We could probably make do with waiting a little after Firefox 4's release but in an ideal world we'd get this up and running in time for the last beta.

Pretty simple config change at
 http://hg.mozilla.org/build/buildbot-configs/file/default/mozilla/release-firefox-mozilla-2.0.py#l39

We recently fixed mac XULRunner (bug 600435) so nightlies for all platforms are available at

It's missing Windows 64 bits : Bug 575912

Win64 is not a supported platform for Mozilla 2.0, so there won't be builds for Firefox or XULRunner.

I know it's not a supported platform, but I was thinking at least building nightlies. Linux-x86_64 is not supported too, but it's builded.

Linux 64-bit *is* a supported platform, it's just not advertised on the website (bug 527907) . Windows 64-bit will be just as supported when we decide to ship a release with it. Until then, our focus remains on supported platforms.

Coop, I enabled this for 4.0b12 build1. There's just bug 634809 to fix. Sorry, forgot to update the bug.

Hey, that's the same bug I hit! ;)

I'll take that one and fix it.

Never did get around to that, and now that I do, bug 634809 looks a little out of my depth.
