I haven't got very far but I will try to note the steps I've taken as I go. I'm currently going to have to give up for the night as it is complaining about the MozillaBuildSetup tools and it's 79 MB and coming down from ftp.mozilla.com at dialup speed :( I'm very new to git so I gave up on --reference and just did a straight clone from my SMB share, which was relatively quick, but of course I only got the bootstrap. Once I get past bootstrap stage, is the git part going to grab relative to bootstrap or go straight to libreoffice.org? I was thinking about manually cloning each of the repositories in the clone directory if necessary to short circuit this. Here's my steps so far: 1. Install Cygwin - pick all development tools and install (much later) 2. Clone the bootstrap git project from SMB share and copied the src files. 3. In Cygwin shell, the autogen failed with an odd error related to Native programs and symlinks. I got past this by doing the following: cd /bin rm /usr/bin/awk cp /usr/bin/gawk.exe awk.exe cp /usr/bin/gzip.exe gunzip.exe 4. After this, it seemed to pick my MSVC2008 Express install as the compiler (I also had several cygwin gcc versions installed but it seems to have ignored them), then I needed to add the jdk 6 home to the config option ./autogen.sh --with-jdk-home=/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/Java/jdk1.6.0_18/ 5. I now find I need the mozilla build tools and to add another config option Download http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/libraries/win32/MozillaBuildSetup-Latest.exe (very slow 2 hour download :( ) will install it in the morning if it's finished downloading... I'll keep adding to this list in case it helps someone else out. -- Regards, Steven Butler _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
