| Description: |
| |
| This copy of NSS has been customized for Chromium. NSPR is also put here |
| rather than in a separate directory to emphasize the fact that Chromium is |
| using NSPR strictly as an NSS dependency. |
| |
| We took a subset of NSS, omitting the SSL and SMIME libraries and the |
| built-in root CA certificates module. This NSS subset satisfies the |
| dependencies of the NSS SSL library in src/net/third_party/nss. Do NOT use |
| this copy of NSS on platforms that have NSS as system libraries, such as |
| Linux. |
| |
| The source code was checked out from the mozilla.org CVS repository using |
| the nspr-checkout.sh and nss-checkout.sh scripts in the scripts directory. |
| The current source code was checked out with the CVS tags -r NSS_3_12_6_RC0 |
| and -r NSPR_4_8_4_BETA1. |
| |
