The patches and revision of v8 we use in Titanium Mobile

Primary LanguageShellOtherNOASSERTION

This is where we store the patches and revision of the v8 repository that we use in the Android port of Titanium Mobile. Build Status

To build V8, you'll need:

  • Android NDK r16b

Build V8 for Android against the NDK:

$ ./build_v8.sh -n /path/to/android-ndk

OR

$ export ANDROID_NDK=/path/to/android-ndk
$ ./build_v8.sh

To publish V8 to S3, you'll need s3cmd: http://tcpdiag.dl.sourceforge.net/project/s3tools/s3cmd/1.6.0/s3cmd-1.6.0.tar.gz

The Whole Shebang

# Apply our patches to v8
cd v8
git apply ndk16b_6.6.patch
cd ..

# Install Android NDK
wget http://dl.google.com/android/repository/android-ndk-r16b-darwin-x86_64.zip
unzip android-ndk-r16b-darwin-x86_64.zip
export ANDROID_NDK=${PWD}/android-ndk-r16b

# Download s3cmd
wget http://tcpdiag.dl.sourceforge.net/project/s3tools/s3cmd/1.6.0/s3cmd-1.6.0.tar.gz
tar -xzf s3cmd-1.6.0.tar.gz
export PATH=${PWD}/s3cmd-1.6.0

# Configure s3cmd
s3cmd --configure

# build v8 for ARM, ARM64, and then x86
./build_v8.sh -n /path/to/android-ndk-r16b -j16 -l arm
./build_v8.sh -n /path/to/android-ndk-r16b -j16 -l arm64
./build_v8.sh -n /path/to/android-ndk-r16b -j16 -l ia32

# Generate a tarball to publish
./build_v8.sh -t

# Publish
./publish_v8.sh build/release/libv8-5.0.71.33-release.tar.bz2
