Created by (tor@cs.brown.edu) on Friday, April 17, 1998 12:40:41 PM PDT Additional Details : This patch fixes the MOZ_LITE configuration in config.mk and lib/layout/Makefile. It also changes references to "EDITOR" in the build process to "MOZ_EDITOR" to avoid problems on unix where EDITOR is commonly set in a user's environment. The patch is a little large to include here; grab it from: http://www.cs.brown.edu/people/tor/mozilla/lite.patch Updated by (tor@cs.brown.edu) on Wednesday, April 29, 1998 11:14:27 PM PDT Additional Details : Patch updated for 19980429 release. Same place and name.

You should send a note to owners@mozilla.org firmly requesting this change. It is the right thing to do, but there are hundreds of #ifdef EDITOR (and the like) scattered throughout the code, so getting all the necessary changes made will probably take a long time. Providing an individual patch to each owner would probably speed things up, but it'll be a major pain-in-the-ass for you.... I've got a version of config.mk that will support both EDITOR and MOZ_EDITOR for the time being, but will wait for your input before checking it in.
I think you may have misunderstood what I'm proposing to do. The #ifdef EDITORs scattered around the codebase are fine and are taken care of with a -DEDITOR on the compile line. The thing I'm objecting to is having an EDITOR environment variable set (to "emacs", say) screw up the MOZ_LITE build. I've updated the patch for the current CVS pull (as of 8/28). This fixes the EDITOR problem mentioned above and fixes the MOZ_LITE build configuration in config.mk and lib/layout/Makefile[.in]. The patch only makes changes to the config directory and a few assorted makefiles -- no actual code changes. Because it modifies the build control variables, the whole patch has to be applied or the tree will break.

MOZ_EDITOR is now supported in mozilla/config/config.mk. EDITOR is *still* there as well, for now. As soon as all the "ifdef EDITOR" lines in the various makefiles are replaced with "ifdef MOZ_EDITOR", I'll get rid of the EDITOR (make) macro. You should send mail to each affected owner with the patch they need to apply. I still think that's the fastest way to get the changes made....

Aye, aye, Cap'n! ;-) All done. Let me know if the rearranging I did in config.mk causes you any trouble.
