During the last years the build instruction/system for OOo 1.x (and earlier) and OOo 2.x (1.9.x) drifted apart. At the moment <http://tools.openoffice.org#Build> describes the generic process but doesn't distinguish between both version. (except for Windows)
To allow easier mainainance (and removal of 1.x cruft I enhanced the mkbuilddoc script to handle different template versions.
For the uninitiated ;) : Because the build instructions for Linux, Solaris, Windows with tcsh and Windows with 4NT are mostly identical they are generated with a script from a template file.
All these files live in the tools module under tools/www/dev_docs/.
Accepted targets are: linux, solaris, windows, windows_tcsh.
Example 1 ========= This creates build_linux.html from build_template.html: $ mkbuilddoc linux
Example 2 ========= This creates build_windows_tcsh_1.1.x.html from build_template_1.1.x.html: $ mkbuilddoc -OOo1.1.x windows_tcsh
Now if someone would update the non-windows instructions ... ;)
I didn't update <http://tools.openoffice.org#Build> to link to build_{solaris|linux}_1.1.x.html yet, because they are basically the same as the current versions.
