## Getting started (from master)
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. First, [download depot_tools](http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/install-depot-tools)
|
|
|
and ensure that they’re in your `PATH`.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Create a new directory for checking out the source code (it must be named
|
|
|
breakpad).
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
mkdir breakpad && cd breakpad
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Run the `fetch` tool from depot_tools to download all the source repos.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
fetch breakpad
|
|
|
cd src
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Build the source.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
./configure && make
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can also cd to another directory and run configure from there to build
|
|
|
outside the source tree.
|
|
|
|
|
|
This will build the processor tools (`src/processor/minidump_stackwalk`,
|
|
|
`src/processor/minidump_dump`, etc), and when building on Linux it will
|
|
|
also build the client libraries and some tools
|
|
|
(`src/tools/linux/dump_syms/dump_syms`,
|
|
|
`src/tools/linux/md2core/minidump-2-core`, etc).
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. Optionally, run tests.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
make check
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. Optionally, install the built libraries
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you need to reconfigure your build be sure to run `make distclean` first.
|
|
|
|
|
|
To update an existing checkout to a newer revision, you can
|
|
|
`git pull` as usual, but then you should run `gclient sync` to ensure that the
|
|
|
dependent repos are up-to-date.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## To request change review
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Follow the steps above to get the source and build it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Make changes. Build and test your changes.
|
|
|
For core code like processor use methods above.
|
|
|
For linux/mac/windows, there are test targets in each project file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Commit your changes to your local repo and upload them to the server.
|
|
|
http://dev.chromium.org/developers/contributing-code
|
|
|
e.g. `git commit ... && git cl upload ...`
|
|
|
You will be prompted for credential and a description.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. At https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/ you'll find your issue listed;
|
|
|
click on it, then “Add reviewer”, and enter in the code reviewer. Depending
|
|
|
on your settings, you may not see an email, but the reviewer has been
|
|
|
notified with google-breakpad-dev@googlegroups.com always CC’d.
