Hi all,

For one of my courseworks this year I will be trying to use JRex (http://jrex.mozdev.org/) to help build a simple web browser in Java.

However firstly I need to build Mozilla from source. I have been following the instructions at http://gemal.dk/mozilla/build.html but at the build stage:
Code:
cd c:\mozilla\mozilla\
make -f client.mk build_all
it falls over with a load of errors like
Code:
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/c/mozilla/mozilla'
make: *** [build] Error 2

For info I am using Win XP Pro SP2 and I can list the versions of the other tools I am using if it will help anyone.

A friend is also having similar difficulties, has anyone managed to build mozilla on windows and if so can you help?

Comments appreciated.

Cheers,

aaazza
