#8 Please add new compile instructions for LINUX + README
Hi i love the plugin but after i switched to Ubuntu x64 bit i couldnt use it anymore because there is noch 64bit build...
Because Im a C++ developer i thought i could compile it myself (made makes before ect have one small onw project)
But after looking into your Project I must (unfortunately say) its no good example for Opensource, youre missing a readme wich explains the basic direoctorys and what they are there for.
And the compile readme is outdated and not complete.
I treid to fix the makefile in funambol-mozilla-plugin/syncmlcomponent/build/syncmlcomponent/posix
but id din't work (there were a lot realative pathes which just made no sense after the compile readme) I used absolutes and did everythink in the readme... but still not working...
So I'm begging Pleeeeeeaaaaaasseee fix the README, Compile Readme and/or Makefile
Why you should do it ? because you will get less work i would get my 64bit verison (a lot of other people would too) you wouldnt have to make an own 64bit version, and maby there will even be bugfixes and feature updates if some other coders can compile it...

Hi, yes you're right, the readme file is still incomplete, but there is some troubles on x64 platform... when you build Mozilla, the "dist" directory structure could be different than the 32bit one (it was reported me by a x64 developer who realized that) but I cannot test it becouse I haven't a x64 pc :(
cheers
