I have been using firefox-10.0.6esr.source.tar to build the and use the XULrunner available in the same, in my local machine for my development purpose. Now i want to upgrade to higher version of XULrunner, i.e version 41.0.2. However i see that Firefox is now missing the xulrunner folder from its main folder layout. I am not able to build the xulrunner, as i used to do in my older version of firefox. Can you please let me know how can i get to build the latest verison of xulrunner source code, via the latest firefox (manually in my local)? Attaching the images of folder structure from firefox-10.0.6esr and firefox-58.0. Image from firefox-58.0 is missing the 'xulrunner' folder

Which is the correct source code to be downloaded to get the latest version of xulrunner?

41.0.2 is the last version of XULRunner. It's obsolete now.

Thanks for the reply. I get that there are no higher version after 41.0.2.

But question here is, is there an option to get the same version's source code (XULrunner 41.0.2) from the latest firefox source code? Or rather, which is the last version of firefox from which I can get the xulrunner built? Is it firefox 45.0.2? or is there a higher version?

You can use the -app command line switch. 

firefox -app path_to/application.ini

Thanks for this info.. So does this mean we cannot even build the XULrunner 41.0.2 version from the latest firefox version?

// Allow firefox.exe to launch XULRunner apps via -app <application.ini>
// Note that -app must be the *first* argument.

Firefox (from version 3) ships with a private XULRunner package, which can run any compatible XULRunner application using the -app switch: firefox -app application.ini is equivalent to xulrunner -app application.ini
