Bug ID: 154426
Summary: Steps to work with Base without needing Java
Product: LibreOffice
Version: Inherited From OOo
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: enhancement
Priority: medium
Component: Base
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
There are different places special in Base, which will need Java:
1. Internal HSQLDB
→ there is a second internal DB Firebird, but it won't offer the same
integration in GUI as HSQLDB does
2. Wizards integrated in Base
→ without Java no wizard integrated in Base will work, see bug 151250.
3. Report Builder
→ Main code for Report Builder is written in Java. There is only a very old
legacy report generator available, which will appear without Report Builder
installed.
Java seems to be a problem for MacOS. Also many people have problems to install
the right JRE for other systems to get Base working.
We will get a way to remove Java and get Base working well without Java.
As described in the steps: 1. Step is first thing to do: Firebird has to work,
then the wizards and at last the Report Builder.
This bug should help to collect different bugs and to vote which bugs will be
the main bugs to solve.
