Hi Eric, all

To make short : ".dylib" are build, and this way,  ".so" are missing ;-)



There is a patch for this on <http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=41626> by Pavel.


Yes, thank you very much. I don't know why, but I was a lot of time reading this issue, and I completely miss the end of this interessant patch !



And guess what? This patch finally made Mozilla build for Mac OS X!!! Strike! One big problem solved!. Question:
Can we check the Mac OS X Sources into a cws


Good idea.

and later in the main source code tree

If let me choose, the answer is no. moz/zipped has grown to about 36m. We had better reduce it instead of increase it. I am thinking of we should introduce a distfile folder into OOo build system like the ones in freebsd port system and garnome build system. We can put all third party files (such as gpc.xx.zip,dbghlp.dll) and prebuilt files there. Then we can keep the same files one line too. Our build system should first find the files in the distfile folder then the internet. We can also introduce a target as fetch_all, then we can build fetch_all to pull all these files from internet to dist directory.

so that they are available like to everyone like the ones for Linux, Windows and Solaris are. This makes building OOo with mozilla on Mac OS X easier.

Currently we can check in the files into a cws and add some comments to the main source code tree. Such as putting a readme.macos to moz or moz/zipped.
