Relation between nss, moz, moz_prebuilt
|
||
|
|
---------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
nss containes the security libraries which are also part of moz. However nss is
|
||
|
|
meant to be more current, that is it to be updated more often. This should be
|
||
|
|
easier than doing this with moz.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If nss is build depends on an environment variable (ENABLE_NSS_MODULE=YES) which
|
||
|
|
is per default set to YES. In this case nss is build before moz. The nss
|
||
|
|
libraries/lib files/headers built in moz are then not delivered. Otherwise they
|
||
|
|
would overwrite those from nss. That is, the nss libraries build in moz are
|
||
|
|
removed from mozruntime.zip (build in moz/solver/bin), they are removed from the
|
||
|
|
lib directory (for example moz/unxlngi6.pro/lib), and the nss and nspr headers
|
||
|
|
are also removed (inc/nss and inc/nspr). The nss libraries from the nss module
|
||
|
|
are then added to mozruntime.zip.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This also applies for moz_prebuilt. Therefore moz and moz_prebuilt must be build
|
||
|
|
again after changes have been made to the libraries in the nss module.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Also when moz was updated to use a newer version of mozilla, then one must make
|
||
|
|
sure that new files which also belong to nss are not delivered and are removed
|
||
|
|
from mozruntime.zip.

Fips 140 and signed libraries
|
||
|
|
-------------------------------
|
||
|
|
Fips 140 mode is not supported. That is, the *.chk files containing the
|
||
|
|
checksums for the cryptographic module are not delivered into solver and will
|
||
|
|
not be part of the OOo installation sets.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The *chk files do not match the libraries because we change the rpatch.

libfreebl3
|
||
|
|
----------
|
||
|
|
Porting to other platforms may require to deliver other variants of
|
||
|
|
libfreebl*. The library name varies according to the platform. Changes need to
|
||
|
|
be made to
|
||
|
|
ooo/moz/extractfiles.mk
|
||
|
|
ooo/moz/zipped/makefile.mk
|
||
|
|
sun/moz_prebuilt/zipped/makefile.mk

Windows builds of nss
|
||
|
|
---------------------
|
||
|
|
To build mozilla on windows you'll need the mozilla build tools
|

|
|
|
||
|
