[jira] Updated: (COUCHDB-562) link couchjs with bound libmozjs

Randall Leeds updated COUCHDB-562:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: couchdb-562.patch

Here's an alternative patch against current trunk.

As compared with the previous patch it:
 1) avoids polluting the global $LIBS variable so e.g. the icu driver is not linked against spidermonkey
 2) uses pkg-config, but should still fall back on the old --with-js-* variables

It should work to compile a functioning CouchDB with just a bare ./configure on Ubuntu 10.10. It does here (full disclosure: I have the mozilla-daily ppa enabled, but I think the normal version in 10.10 also ships the pkg-config file for xulrunner-dev).

I'm particularly interested to know if it breaks the standard compilation procedure for any devs or packagers, especially on Windows.

> If you build the couchdb from the source with a prefix set and --with-js-[lib|include] option the resulting couchjs programm in <prefix>/lib/couchdb/bin/couchjs does not know where to find the specified libmozjs.so which was specified in with-js-lib. This causes that quite all test will fail. 
> To fix this the rpath has to setup during the compile. I don't had a look where to do this.
> but a small shell wrapper fix it also
