771956 - webrtc module auto generated makefiles incorrectly generating paths in windows format paths (on windows), causing make to barf

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 773423

(Core :: WebRTC, defect)

Description

[Steve Williams]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0
Build ID: 20120704090211

Steps to reproduce:

grabbed latest mozilla-central source bundle via hg & tried building it on windows 7/64.


Actual results:

set build going on windows. it errored out compiling webrtc module.
inspected the Makefiles in webrtc module & found topsrcdir, srcdir & VPATH were incorrectly configured in the [drive]:/path format causing make to barf.

m-c build error : Makefile:52: ../../../../../../z:dev/mozilla/config/rules.mk: No such file or directory
../../../media/webrtc/trunk/common.mk:58: *** target pattern contains no `%'. Stop.

manually replaced those paths with correct /[drive]/path format & build completed as expected.
so example above - changed to /z/dev/mozilla , etc.


Expected results:

build should have compiled without change.

webrtc module makefile generation should generate paths in the correct format on windows.

This is a dup of the absolute path bug. Need to find the bug number...
