FYI, you can use M-x compile (or at least a wrapper around it) with a bit
of cleverness:
(defun froydnj-build-mozilla-with-mozconfig (mozconfig target)
(let* ((objdir (shell-command-to-string
(format "grep MOZ_OBJDIR %s | cut -f 2 -d =" mozconfig)))
;; Use the first cd command so compile's intelligent setting of
;; default-directory works to our advantage. Use the second cd
;; command so mach is invoked from the correct directory.
(compile-command (format "cd %s; cd %s; env MOZCONFIG=%s mach
--log-no-times build %s"
(remove-if #'(lambda (x) (char-equal x
?\n))
objdir :from-end t :count 1)
froydnj-mozilla-srcdir
mozconfig
target)))
(compile compile-command)))
This gets invoked from some machinery to choose which mozconfig (six
different mozconfigs so far, full builds or "binaries" builds), but the
idea should be clear. By setting compilation-buffer-name-function
appropriately, separate mozconfigs produce their compilation output in
separate buffers, and one can avoid cluttering up shells with compilation
output.
