Details

I've decided to have another go at making Mozilla build in CodeWarrior 6, unfortunately I can't even get as far as I did previously. I made xpidl build as detailed in bug 53679 as before, but while running under Mac OS X CodeWarrior refuses to see the linker plugin. When opening an IDL project it complains that xpt Linker is missing in target 'headers'. Opening the build settings reveals the compiler is not in the list of available linkers. Rebooting into Mac OS 9.1 as running the exact same install of CodeWarrior 6 finds the compiler and can process the IDL fine. Any ideas? Can someone ask Metrowerks to look at this?
Bouncing to jj.

Well, someone on the CodeWarrior newsgroup pointed out to me the linker probably isn't carbonised. <doh> Simply linking against CarbonLib rather than InterfaceLib wasn't enough to solve the problem though, so I'll look some more.
Depends on: 53679
Fixed this, see build changes in 53679 for fix.
