Title: tools::extendApplicationEnvironment
Posted by: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Affected: -
Effective from: cws_src680_sb80
*Summary*
--------
+ tools/extendapplicationenvironment.hxx:
void tools::extendApplicationEnvironment()
*Description*
-------------
"Extend the environment of the process in a platform specifc way as
necessary for OOo-related applications; must be called first thing in
main." (What it does right now is on Unix to do the RLIMIT_NOFILE
fiddling that used to be done in vcl's salmain.cxx and to set the
URE_BOOTSTRAP environment variable needed today by the experimental
OOo-wo-URE and tomorrow by each OOo application, see
<http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/mwiki/index.php?title=ODF_Toolkit/Efforts/OOo_without_URE>.
Whether or not an application is "OOo-related" might be a judgement
call; clearly, simple helper applications that only link against
system libraries are not affected, and VCL applications or
applications that use UNO and OOo's additional UNO types are
affected---if in doubt, do call tools::extendedApplicationEnvironment
as it should be harmless if it is not needed.) The call has been
added to vcl's salmain (where it should hit most use cases) and the
soffice and unopkg applications.
