[scummvm-devel] Building Symbian port with buildbot

[Philippe Valembois]

Hello Fiodar,

We could try to add Symbian support to Buildbot.
Current prerequisites are that the toolchain must be Linux based and
should rely on reproducible ways to build it through Docker.
It would be ideal that the toolchain doesn't use precompiled binaries
as those would make the toolchain stick to some OS version which will
get outdated fast.
The build process must make use of the configure script directly
followed by make as it's done today for all other platforms.

If these prerequistes are checked, I can work on building a Symbian
toolchain using Docker but I will need detailed information about the
process.
You can look at samples on the Wiki
(https://wiki.scummvm.org/index.php?title=Compiling_ScummVM) where you
can see the kind of information I would need to build the toolchain.

Some questions that come to find first:
- What is the project which makes SDK running on Linux? Is it still maintained?
- Is SDK easily downloadable by a script?
- Which Symbian version do you target?
- What are the libraries compiled?

Regards,
Phil
