Hi,
Build OOo on Mac OS X is not very easy, since several versions of OS are
existing.
For 2.0 , following what was recently proposed on releases mailing
list, we will (try to) provide official and experimental builds, like
described above. If none disagree,and if nothing's wrong, I propose to
complete and update the porting web site about this baseline (Eric, may
you please complete?)
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
*About Official release 2.0* :
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
We probably will provide it just after the deadline, but we are close.
Please be patient :-)
macosx11 cws has been created to reach 2.0 status.
Work in progress with target 2.0 :
-> provide a launcher
core application #i42998# [ work in progress ]
localized strings #i42999# [ fr, de and en-US are ok :
please see #i42999# for instructions concerning your locale, if possible ]
with high resolution icons #i43000# [ok]
This launcher will be located in desktop (in OOo sources tree), and will
complete the package at the end of the build process. Florian Heckel has
provided a very nice script.
*target 2.0.1* :
- stabilize the launcher,
- full integrationof this launcher in OOo source code
- issues to fix (still not issued) :
java + plugin gtk : freeze
send current document as attachment does not work : Mail.app is not
launched
use "Bonjour" printers
? others _urgent_bugs_ to fix ? [ please help me to complete ]
Build is made using Mac OS X 10.3 (aka Panther ).
Minimal version required : 10.3.4 (10.3.8.adviced)
Java : j2sdk1.4.2_05 mini (actually 1.4.2_07 )
Compiler : gcc-3.3 / tools from Xcode 1.5 / fink completes the tools
X11 or XDarwin for the praphic server.
Configure command line
--with-lang=fr de --with-mozilla-version=1.7.5 --disable-cups
--enable-pasf --enable-mozab --disable-crashdump --with-x
--with-ant-home=/Volumes/sauvegarde/OpenOffice.org680/external/apache-ant-1.6.5
--with-jdk-home=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Home
--with-system-freetype --enable-fontconfig --with-epm=internal
--with-gnu-cp=/sw/bin/cp --with-pkg-config=YES --enable-gtk
Maho Nakata is proposed for provide the builds. Maho, can you confirm,
please ?
Note : why do official builds on Panther ?
- these builds are working fine on both Panther and Tiger (compatibility)
- most of Mac Users have Panther
- 10.3 is actually the optimal version ( just my opinion )
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
*Development (part 1, to be completed)*
""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
For other builds, please consider them as "experimental builds" :
Mac OS X 10.1 : no build, because the API changed too much between 10.1
and 10.2.
Mac OS X 10.2 ( aka Jaguar) : gcc-3.3 / fink /
Compiler : gcc-3.3
Tools from Xcode 1.5
Fink (prefered) or Darwin ports completes the tools
XDarwin for the graphic server part
Java : j2sdk1.4.1
Actual configure command line (can be modified if needed) :
--with-lang="fr de" --with-mozilla-version=1.7.5 --disable-cups
--enable-pasf --enable-mozab --disable-crashdump --with-x
--with-ant-home=/Volumes/sauvegarde/OpenOffice.org680/external/apache-ant-1.6.5
--with-jdk-home=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Home
--with-system-freetype --enable-fontconfig --with-epm=internal
--with-gnu-cp=/sw/bin/cp --with-pkg-config=YES --enable-gtk
Note : build is in progress. I'll propose a build for experimentation
asap (problem in udkapi actually, with "Could not use Canonical
Identifier for AppleLanguages" error, or something like that ). No idea yet.
Maybe the cause could be
CFLocaleCreateCanonicalLocaleIdentifierFromString is still not
implemented in 10.2 (thank's Tino )
Mac OS X 10.4 ( aka Tiger )
Compiler : we must concentrate our efforts using gcc-4.0.x for the build
XCode : 2.0 ( or more if possible)
X11SDK (4.4.0) or XDarwin for the graphic server part
Java : 1.4.2 latest version if possible, and we must definitively fix
AWT problems
As example, the configure command line I'm using :
--with-lang=fr de --with-mozilla-version=1.7.5 --disable-cups
--enable-pasf --enable-mozab --disable-crashdump --with-x
--with-ant-home=/Volumes/Panther/Users/ericbx3/Desktop/OpenOffice.org680/external/apache-ant-1.6.5
--with-jdk-home=/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Home
--with-system-freetype --enable-fontconfig --with-epm=internal
--with-pkg-config=YES --enable-gtk --enable-gnome-vfs --enable-kde
--with-gnu-cp=/sw/bin/cp
New propositions for 1.1.x baseline and development, including a
roadmap, will be made soon.
Thank's in advance for any suggestion, opinion, help to complete this
proposition....
