Hi all, When discussing the recent transition to only supporting unified builds, some people were apparently concerned about how this would affect Visual Studio projects (i.e. Intellisense), since the Visual Studio project files generated via |mach build-backend| only listed the individual source files, and not the unified files that were actually compiled. Bug 1122812[1] was filed, and I fixed Visual Studio projects to include the unified files instead of the individual files.
It turns out that this breaks the way some people use Visual Studio projects (i.e. Intellisense), rather than fixing it, as was the intent. I confess that I'm not using Visual Studio to develop Firefox, so I'm looking for people's input: - What do you use Visual Studio project files for? - Did bug 1122812 make Intellisense (and related IDE usage) worse or better for you? Backing out the problematic change in bug 1122812 isn't a big deal, but I'd like to understand how people are actually using the project files and what actually breaks (or continues working) for folks. Thanks, -Nathan [1] https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1122812 _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
