Hi All,
Thanks all for the response. It took me quite a while to get .NET 2002 so the late posting.
I am a newbie trying to get a status of ODMA for the Universal Content Broker of OO.
I am trying to build the OO so that I can get the status. I downloaded the source from http://download.openoffice.org/1.1.4/source.html for OO.o 1.1.4. But earlier as
I was referring to the link http://tools.openoffice.org/dev_docs/build_windows.html I
installed .NET 2003 and then I realised that I was using 1.x.y series so should follow
http://tools.openoffice.org/dev_docs/build_windows_1.x.y.html for using a 4NT shell.
You don't have to use, there is also a 'build_windows_1.x.y_tcsh.html' but this is just a comment.
I followed the 1.x.y link and found for using .net 2003 I had to go through
http://tools.openoffice.org/source/browse/tools/www/dev_docs/net2003_review.sxw for the
status of MS Visual C++ .net 2003 usability. But the link gives a zip file which could not help me.
Well, this "zip" file is an OpenOffice.org text document. You should know the application you're trying to build ;)
I am sorry. I understand this is very silly of me.
So I followed whatever directions
http://tools.openoffice.org/dev_docs/build_windows.html gave for using .NET 2003. As I dont
have .net 2002
Then you're out of luck! The OOo 1.1.x series builds only with a .NET2002. You might trick configure to accept .NET2003 but that wouldn't help to build OOo.
I uninstalled .NET 2003 and installed .NET 2002.
I dont have msvcp70.dll and msvcr70.dll which come with .NET 2002 but have
msvcp71.dll and msvcr71.dll which are bundled with .NET 2003. Also I got the 4NT version
As I said, .NET2002 or nothing.
I got the msvcp70dll and msvcr70.dll when I installed .NET 2002 and put them in their correct places.
I got 4NT 6.01 from http://jpsoft.com website. But an important note 3 on
http://tools.openoffice.org/dev_docs/build_windows_1.x.y.html says you should have you must
ensure that the initialisation file 4nt.ini is present in the 4NT application directory. I
could not see that file when I installed 4NT in a directory(inspite of selecting to view all
Yes, that's exactly the reason for that note. Create it.
I created that .ini file. Now I am running the configure script as
//////////////////////////////////
$ ./configure --with-cl-home=/cygdrive/c/program\ files/Microsoft\ Visual\ Stud
io\ .NET/Vc7/bin --with-asm-home=/cygdrive/c/program\ files/Microsoft\ Vi

/////////////////////////////////
I am getting

even though cl.exe was in the path I gave and I was using the option --with-cl-home.
Hmm, this will not help you compiling OOo, but can you try with:
./configure --with-cl-home="/cygdrive/c/program files/Microsoft Visual Studio .net 2003/vc7/bin" ...
I mean instead of escaping " " with a \ try quoting the complete argument with ".."
I tried escaping " " as you said but even that did not help.
Now because I earlier had .NET 2003 then got 2002 could that be the reason of the errors or something else.

Thanks for all your help.
