Prerequisites
This guide assumes you have the following software:
- Eclipse IDE 3.2 or later (see http://www.eclipse.org/)
- JDK 1.4 or later
Build HBX for Firefox
First, check out HBX for Firefox from SVN path: https://dev.eclipse.org/svnroot/technology/org.eclipse.higgins/trunk/app/org.eclipse.higgins.hbx/ to local folder.
Next, unfold org.eclipse.higgins.hbx-project contents in Package Explorer, choose in the project tree “*\org.eclipse.higgins.hbx\firefox\bx\XPCom\build.xml” and push the right mouse button (if this file already opened, push the right mouse button on the edit area). In popup menu choose item Run AS->Ant Build.
On the first step, that script makes folder “build” in the directory “*\org.eclipse.higgins.hbx\firefox\bx\XPCom”. Into this folder making subfolders subfolder “bin” and “xpi”. On the second step script executing, needed files will be copied from base folder into folder "bin". Next, script makes jar-file “higginsbx” in folder bin/chrome. Then script makes “.xpi” archive and copies it into “*\org.eclipse.higgins.hbx\firefox\bx\XPCom\build\xpi” folder.
As result, the folder *\org.eclipse.higgins.hbx\firefox\bx\XPCom\build\xpi will contain “higgins.xpi”.
