In 'C:\mozilla-build', there will be a few batch files -- fire up '''start-msvc9.bat''' to obtain a console window with paths set up for building.

'''NOTE''': the MSYS environment that drives the build uses Unix-style forward slashes for path separators. Drive letters are also treated as directories, so "C:\proj" becomes "/c/proj". Note that MSYS will automatically translate "/c/proj" into "C:\proj" from the command line; this sometimes causes problems when trying ot pass arguments that start with "/" to programs. To get around this, use "//" -- for example, "dumpbin //exports". Or, use the - form of arguments if supported. | |||
