87215 - make jprof work with statically linked build

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: General, defect, P3)

Description

[Chris Waterson]

We need to make some minor changes to get jprof working with the static build.
Since the jprof Makefile is a bit tangled, I think it's probably just easiest to
separate it into two parts: one that builds the stub that's linked into the main
executable, and one that builds the tool.

I propose that we create a subdirectory of mozilla/tools/jprof called ``stub'',
copy the following files in the repository, and then apply some changes to the
build system (which I'll attach momentarily)...

cd mozilla/tools/jprof
mkdir stub
cp libmalloc.h,v stub
cp libmalloc.cpp,v stub
cp jprof.h,v stub
cp config.h,v stub

Can we remove some of these files from their old locations?
