Assigning but to me.
The Japanese Input patch needs some cleanup before it's ready for inclusion, but
that should be manageble. The transparancy fix would be very nice to have fixed,
but I don't know to what extend that will be done. We'll see.
Whether or not to include the native app patch, that will still need some debating.
Assignee: firefox → Niels.Reedijk
Status: ASSIGNED → NEW
I personally think we should try and get bug 104729 up to date.
Doing native app right would require fixing threading issues in widget / gfx and
solving library-loading (addon-path, library-path set by script)

works. If so, we can close another bug ;-)

Oops... sorry for the mid-air collision. I'm putting Bug 244701 back in the

Adding two bugs relevant to download-locations. Bug 255189 and bug 264512.
(These two really annoy me.)

Some twidling around...
Bug 255189 seems to be a linux bug, that is present in the BeOS tree as well. In
order to be able to succesfully close the bug, I have created bug 267219 . The
patch included with that one is my first one! (hurray!!!).
These updates are for 1.0.0-d3

Well my fault. I thought the directory selection was a xul/platform independent
thing. Anyway, nice to see you're working :)

Bug 267823 is now closed. This is merely a stylistic change (I think), but it
affects the Japanese input patch. So keep this in mind when updating CVS.
Comment 14•20 years ago

Adding bug 271613 to this list, although I don't think it will change in the
AVIARY branch.
I suspect this will help the startup troubles.

I'm going to concentrate on the trunk now. This seems a better decision, based
on the fact that it gives us a better frame of improvement. It also might
motivate people better.

I'd vote for adding 220753 (mailto: links) to the list, since it appears the

Drop the 'restart' bug. This won't be tackled before 1.1 anyway (and we don't
have enough influence to get this especially for us anyway).

Here is another bug, that is nice for performance, bug 296856. I think we should
have it in 1.5 if possible.

Oops, the performance is apparently from a yet to be filed bug. My mistake.
Anyway it seems good things are in the works :)

Move bugs not for Firefox 1.5 to bug 311032 (Firefox 2.0 tracker). Even though I
personally consider the DnD patch a feature, I acknowledge that in order to make
a fully clean CVS build, that this patch is something we need to land for 1.5.
Assignee | ||
Comment 52•19 years ago
|
||
This is the 'official' Firefox 1.5 beta 2 .mozconfig. Please note that the file
has been tested, but not the checkout flag, which can only happen if the
tagging is done. So at the moment, this is a proof of concept, but as soon as
the tree is closed I can verify if this file works, and update it if needed.

Comment 55•19 years ago
|
||
Just to make a thing clear, I'm desperately hoping that the RC1 is flawed :-) I really want to have a CVS-buildable release, but if it turns out not the case, there's no problem. For some magical reason the bug 104729 is fixed now, I'll upload that patch as soon (and if) bug 311651 lands (which should make diffing easier). I'll upload the blog later today.

Anther important bug. That leaves bug 311651 , and bug 104729 , as well as bug 314330 to be committed in the 1.8 branch.

Bug 311651 was just checked in by biesi. That leaves bug 104729 and bug 314330. I'll just wait until the anonymous cvs is synchronised, so that I can make a custom 104729 patch.
I hope it's all going to work out
Assignee | ||
Comment 58•19 years ago
|
||
Bug 104729 was checked in by timeless. This means that only bug 314330 needs to be backported. It seems like some of the changes are already in, so I'm just looking how to shape this patch.
Comment 59•19 years ago
|
||
If we can build Firefox cleanly with such a minimal .mozconfig, is there any reason for us to recommend the more complicated version found on the BeBits wiki?
Assignee | ||
Comment 60•19 years ago
|
||
There's no reason whatsoever to use the one on BeBits. My builds with this configuration are somewhat different in size, but there is no noticable difference whatsoever. My guess is that without explicitly mentioning extensions, we get a few extra for free. Furthermore, the configuration on Bebits might be a bit redundant anyway. So I'd vote for this kind of mozconfig.
Assignee | ||
Comment 61•19 years ago
|
||
An additional notice: bug 314330 has been checked in on the MOZILLA_1_8_BRANCH. As far as us is concerned, the BeOS release of Firefox 1.5 is ready to go.
Comment 62•19 years ago
|
||
I posted on BeZilla blog about how that mozconfig came into existance. It should be cleaned up and moved over to developer.mozilla.org ports page IMO.
Comment 63•19 years ago
|
||
http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/BeOS_Build_Prerequisites already has a mozconfig file. It doesn't mention non-BeOS specific options because they are documented on the general Configuring Mozilla page.
I tried a few times to remove redundant/unnecessary options from the BeBits wiki. But some of the options there disable features that aren't disabled by default, so I left them in there.
I don't understand why bebits disable IPv6. Is it just for the codesize effect? Not disabling it should not have any adverse effects...

Comment 68•19 years ago

I understand the desire to make as vanilla a build as possible for the release version. Would -enable bthreads compromise this? I've noted performance improvements here since including this in my builds. I believe this flag just allows firefox to take better advantage of BeOS's native threading capability. Just curious.
Comment 69•19 years ago
|
||
why is that not the default?
Comment 70•19 years ago
|
||
biesi, maybe it *is* the default. I've seen several .mozconfigs specify it over the years. Please excuse my ignorance, but is there a common location where one can easily see what items are enabled and disabled by default?
Comment 71•19 years ago
|
||
configure.in / nsprpub/configure.in
Comment 72•19 years ago
|
||
I created that mozconfig a long time ago for Phoenix. In those days it was actually very hard to get one that worked. So many things where disabled.
The configs here is better for ordinary use.
Comment 73•19 years ago
|
||
"configure.in / nsprpub/configure.in"
Thank you, biesi!
In reviewing other options set here, it seems we could also set the default optimization to -o3 if we wanted to. Since the advent of the 2.95.3 compiler for BeOS, this seems like it might be a worthwhile change to make at some point.
