1.安装 Visual Studio Community 2013或从网盘下载

2.安装 MozillaBuild  或从网盘下载  http://pan.baidu.com/s/1eQe3D0u  MozillaBuildSetup-Latest.exe安装后 运行start-shell-msvc2013.bat

3.下载源码
在命令行中执行如下命令//获取源码
hg clone http://hg.mozilla.org/comm-central
//获取依赖库
cd comm-central
python client.py checkout


4.创建配置文件
回到comm-central 目录，创建编译配置文件.mozconfig

echo 'ac_add_options --enable-application=mail' > .mozconfig
echo 'ac_add_options --enable-calendar' >> .mozconfig
echo 'ac_add_options --enable-debug' >> .mozconfig
5.comm-central 目录下编译源码

Before you start, make sure that the version you checked out is not busted. For hg tip, you should see green Bs on https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=comm-central
//执行编译
./mozilla/mach build

6.comm-central 目录下运行程序
./mozilla/mach run

7.comm-central 目录下更新到最新源码
python client.py checkout

8.更新源码后再次在comm-central 目录下编译
./mozilla/mach build

9.只针对 C或C++文件的修改进行编译
./mozilla/mach build binaries

10.修改javascript和xul文件
在windows下编译:
./mozilla/mach build path/to/dir     -----最好在相关改变的父目录执行
在Mac OS X or Linux 不用编译， since the files in the object directory are linked to the ones in the source directory.


11.其它文件的改变，执行全量编译
./mozilla/mach build
