	Symbian OS uses a series of Perl scripts and proprietary tools for building application projects. While this has some advantages when building different targets and setting meta data such as application ID, it however can not fit into Mozilla technology philosophy. Because of the ease portability of Mozilla platform building tools, mainly GNU make and autoconf, we could use these tools to build our Mozilla products with Symbian OS SDK in Windows operating system. The only effort we should take is patching the <tt>configure.in</tt> scripts and related <tt>Makefile.in</tt> and <tt>rules.mk</tt> project files.

			* Prerequisites for S60 SDK: [http://downloads.activestate.com/ActivePerl/Windows/5.6/ActivePerl-5.6.1.638-MSWin32-x86.msi Active Perl] '''EXACTLY V5.6.1.638, no earlier no later''' and [http://java.sun.com/ JRE v1.5] (JRE is not required)

			== Procedures ==

			* Install all prerequisites, I recommend installing everything on Drive C, default path.
			* Add paths to environment variable $PATH, some of them are added by tools installation:
			** <tt>c:\mingw\bin</tt> ('''MUST''' be the first, or at least earlier than any Symbian build tool chain related path)
			** <tt>c:\program files\csl arm toolchain\bin</tt> (this should be added by GCCE tools installation)
			** <tt>c:\symbian\9.2\s60_3rd_fp1\epoc32\tools</tt> ('''MUST''' place this earlier than "<tt>c:\program files\common\symbian\tools</tt>" which is added by SDK installation)
			** <tt>c:\mozilla-build\svn-win32-1.4.2\bin</tt>
			** <tt>c:\mozilla-build\moztools\bin</tt>
			* Add environment variables:
			SYMBIAN_SDK_PATH = /c/symbian/9.2/S60_3rd_FP1/
			ACTIVE_PERL = /c/perl/bin/perl.exe
			CC_INSTALL_PATH = /c/program\ files/CSL\ ARM\ Toolchain/
			* Fix a [http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/KIS001022_-_Open_C:_Initializer_element_is_not_constant_error_on_GCCE_platform header file bug]: in <tt>$EPOCROOT/Epoc32/include/e32def.h</tt>, change:
			static const char* const KSuppressPlatSecDiagnostic =
			KSuppressPlatSecDiagnosticMagicValue;
			into
			#if defined(__cplusplus)
			static const char* const KSuppressPlatSecDiagnostic =
			KSuppressPlatSecDiagnosticMagicValue;
			#endif
			* Deal with header files
			c:
			cd \symbian\9.2\s60_3rd_fp1\epoc32\include
			move prtypes.h prtypes.h.orig
			cd variant
			copy Symbian_OS_v9.2.hrh Symbian_OS.hrh

			* Checkout source from google code <br>
			svn checkout http://mozilla-symbian.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ mozilla-symbian
			* Start msys by invoking <tt>c:\mozilla-build\msys\msys.bat</tt>, assuming your source is checked out at <tt>c:\mozilla-symbian</tt> then:

			For device(GCCE) build:
			cd /c/
			mkdir gobj
			cd gobj
			../mozilla-symbian/nsprpub/configure --target=arm-none-symbianelf
			--enable-symbian-target=GCCE --disable-debug
			make
			cd pr/tests
			make

			For emulator(WINSCW) build:
			cd /c/
			mkdir wobj
			cd wobj
			../mozilla-symbian/nsprpub/configure --target=arm-none-symbianelf
			--enable-symbian-target=WINSCW
			make
			cd pr/tests
			make

			The procedures above are also verified on S60 SDK 3rd Edition MR.
