Hello all, I am trying for my first firefox build and I'm running into an error. I followed along on this page, installing in order everything I was supposed to:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Developer_guide/Build_Instructions/Windows_Prerequisites But then when I try to build: ./mach build I get this error: "ERROR: Cannot find the target C compiler" Any Ideas on what I should do next? With my limited knowledge, I tried adding clang-cl to the PATH: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.21.27702\bin\Hostx64\x86\cl C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.21.27702\bin\Hostx64\x64\cl but i'm still getting the same errors. Below is the complete output from the build command: $ ./mach build Config object not found by mach. 0:00.75 Clobber not needed. 0:00.75 Adding make options from None MOZ_OBJDIR=c:/mozilla-source/mozilla-central/obj-x86_64-pc-mingw32 OBJDIR=c:/mozilla-source/mozilla-central/obj-x86_64-pc-mingw32 0:00.80 c:\mozilla-build\bin\mozmake.EXE -f client.mk -s configure 0:00.91 cd c:/mozilla-source/mozilla-central/obj-x86_64-pc-mingw32 0:00.94 c:/mozilla-source/mozilla-central/configure 0:01.26 Reexecuting in the virtualenv 0:01.48 checking for vcs source checkout... hg 0:01.53 checking for a shell...
