4)A batch script is needed to configure the system so that the right variables are in the path and such. I created a batch script called SetupFireFox.bat with the following code inside.
<pre>
@echo off
rem --- moztools comes last after glib/libIDL
SET PATH=%PATH%;%MOZ_TOOLS%\bin
</pre>
5) Check out the build via cvs by typing 'cvs login' from c:\proj. Then type:
<pre>
cvs co mozilla/browser/config mozilla/client.mk
</pre>
This will create the mozilla directory.
6) I then proceeded to move into the mozilla directory and create a file called mozconfig. I added the following code to mozconfig:
<pre>
# Building Firefox Trunk with Debugging
. $topsrcdir/browser/config/mozconfig
# I'm using Canvas for my work
ac_add_options --enable-canvas
 
</pre>
7)While in the same directory I typed:
<pre>
make -f client.mk checkout
</pre>
Which will check out the client.
