Amrith,
A few years ago we gave it a go with Oo 1.xx (can't remember the exact
version). with the GCC compiler on HP-UX 11.00 PA-RISC 32-bit.
Most of the C-stuff is pretty straightforward, but the bridges, which has
assembler code, we got stuck on.
In real effort, it was a few weeks, but in time it took several months
(over 10).
It is possible that I can find the patches we did on that version of Oo;
maybe you can use it as an example for porting the current version.
Lots of success !

Hi all,
We are planning to create a HP-UX port of openoffice for both Itaniium
and PA. After seeing the statitistics ie, 30k source files and
9000000lines of C++ code, It seems to be big effort.
So before taking up this effort of porting, I would like to get
information regarding the time and effort this porting activity has taken
for any other ported platform. Initially we may go for a very bare minimal
features.
It would be really nice, if some one who has taken part in any such
porting activity can answer my below given questions.
1. How much time it will take to port openoffice with full features.
2. How much time it will take to port openoffice with minimal features.
3. What are the main issues which need to be fixed in the porting phase.
4. Is there any existing port available for HP-UX.
Thanks in advance
Amrith
