Building Mozilla for Symbian OS is in research stage now. The method and process mentioned here is subject to change greatly as the project goes on.

Overview

Our first milestone is to make XULRunner run on a cell phone with S60 3rd Edition platform whose underlying operating system is Symbian OS. To simplify this target, say we are porting Mozilla FireFox onto Symbian OS.

What has been done now

See bug 432430, you will find the patch which will make NSPR built on Symbian OS. But this patch only give you a success build, the result is not tested at all. I believe there are many fixes to do until the NSPR on Symbian OS could work as expected.

Test NSPR and continue porting other components like NSS, necko, xpcom and etc.
