Description Marc-Andre Lureau 2012-01-26 14:02:15 UTC 
Description of problem:

The following line seems to be the new way of generating headers from idl files

python /usr/lib64/xulrunner-sdk-2/sdk/bin/header.py -I `pkg-config --variable=idldir libxul` nsISpicec.idl -o  nsISpicec.h

However, the generated header includes a file from nspr.

  CXX    libnsISpicec_la-nsScriptablePeer.lo
In file included from /usr/include/xulrunner-sdk-2/nsError.h:42:0,
                 from nsScriptablePeer.cpp:54:
/usr/include/xulrunner-sdk-2/nscore.h:58:21: fatal error: prtypes.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

It would be great to have the needed cflags given by a pkgconfig, instead of hardcoding something that might change. Same applies to rpm package depedencies.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

xulrunner-devel-9.0.1-1.fc16.x86_64
Comment 1 Martin Stransky 2012-03-20 09:44:29 UTC 
`pkg-config --cflags libxul` will work here for the include dir.
