The trace in Spidermonkey's old-configure is causing the MOZ_CONFIG_ICU function
to be called twice, which is not desirable as it can cause the MOZ_SHARED_ICU
check in build/autoconf/icu.m4 to fail and build an ICU data file even if we're
building ICU as a shared library.
It seems that if we're going to enable JS_SHARED_LIBRARY, we need ICU to be a
shared library too in order to prevent code duplication in mozjs.dll bloating
it to a whopping 21 MB.
This unfortunately means we have to fold icudata back to icu itself. But since
icudata is still separated from libxul (which is what really matters for #1451),
I think this is a fair compromise.
Building ICU as shared is offered as an option via --enable-shared-icu. But
technically you really need --enable-shared-icu if you're going to use
--enable-shared-js. Unfortunately I can't make configure exit with an error if
MOZ_SHARED_ICU is not defined when JS_SHARED_LIBRARY is enabled, because options
are controlled by different configure scripts (icu is based on bash, while js is
based on python), and I have no idea how to pass MOZ_SHARED_ICU to js's
moz.configure.
Tag #62
OpenIndiana didn't need this for some reason, but on Oracle Solaris, we need this to make sure we're using gsed (GNU sed) here. It's probably a safer bet anyway.
Although it's enabled by default in gcc (should be, anyway!), we're
being explicit here for 64-bit x86 platforms here also. This matches the
old behavior.
- `--enable-official-branding` implies `MC_OFFICIAL` (no need to specifically set it)
- `--enable-official-vendor` can be used to set `MC_OFFICIAL` on builds without `--enable-official-branding` that should still be considered official release versions.
- `MC_OFFICIAL` implies `--enable-release`, meaning `DEVELOPER_OPTIONS` isn't set
- `MC_OFFICIAL` makes `nsXULAppInfo.getIsOfficial` return `true`
- `MC_OFFICIAL` makes `AppConstants.MOZILLA_OFFICIAL` (for compatibility in extensions) and `AppConstants.MC_OFFICIAL` return `true`
- Optional, for the time being: `MOZILLA_OFFICIAL` is still present in some places in case someone wants to build a Mozilla-alike official application and has the rights and necessary keys to use Mozilla-official third-party services. This must always be combined with `MC_OFFICIAL` to have a sane combination of defines. This may be removed in the future.
