source code
There are several ways you can access the source code available from
mozilla.org. You'll probably find our
development tools useful too.
-
Browse
Browse the up-to-the-minute latest version of the source code
online, through a massively-hyperlinked source code browser that
lets you cross-reference function and variable names. Check out
the Mozilla
Cross-Reference page for details.
- Download
- FTP
Download the source from our FTP server.
Details are on the Download page.
Source drops to the FTP server usually occur monthly.
- CVS
Those doing active development can check out the latest source
using CVS. This is the preferred method, as it lets you get
up-to-the-minute changes and merge them with
your own. Details are on our
CVS page.
- Build
Look at the build instructions to find out how to compile this beast.
- Contribute
To contribute code, submit your changes to the
owner(s) of the module(s)
you plan to change. If they approve the code they'll commit
your changes.
If you're a frequent contributor or if you're contributing
your own module you may be given write access to our CVS
repository so you can commit the changes yourself.
Consult the guidelines on hacking mozilla
to find out how to get write access and to find
out how bonsai and
tinderbox are used in our build process.
