891626 - Inconsistent filename case for "ipc"

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

[Gregory Szorc [:gps]]

widget/moz.build uses "IPC" (https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/widget/moz.build#125)
ipc/glue.moz.build uses "ipc" (https://mxr.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/source/ipc/glue/moz.build#77)

There are also a few references to said files sprinkled around the tree which use different forms of casing. I think we've been OK up to this point because of case-insensitive file systems where these files are used. However, the Python code I'm writing in bug 890097 doesn't take too kindly to things.

Attachment: Consistent filename casing for "ipc"

I /think/ I caught all the references to "IPC" in the directory
component. "ipc" won out because it is more popular. If I didn't catch
them all, this at least made the patches I'm working on in bug 890097
stop complaining.

Consistent filename casing for "ipc"

This will almost certainly require a clobber...
