Re: [Build Environment] Windows - build using Java 7 (JDK 1.7) without having Visual Studio
On 01/08/2013 Oliver-Rainer Wittmann wrote: Version 2.7.1-1 now takes line endings in the patch file and in the file to be patch serious. Thus, the application of a patch fails when the line endings are different. I haven't investigated this deeply at the time, but the hsqldb module has a mix of line endings (that led to a broken patch too) and uses CONVERTFILES in makefile.mk to harmonize them. There are issues 121690 [3] and 121754 [4] regarding building with Java 7 (JDK 1.7) and HSQLDB. I think these issues are the duplicates of each other [please, can one of the people involved in these issues - e.g. Fred, Ariel or Andrea confirm this? Thx in advance]. As far as I understood these issues are solved. Please correct me, if I am wrong. 121754 is fixed. 121690 is more generic; I confirm that after fixing 121754 I had no problems in building with Java 7, so it might be that HSQLDB was the only problem. But I only tried with some standard build options. Namely, I didn't try with --with-junit or similar, and Kay reported issues with that. On a Windows system with JRE 6 the installation of my build does not recognize installed JRE 6 as an Java runtime environment (Menu - Tools - Option - Java). This is no problem from my point of view as our Windows users should not have JRE 6 installed anymore on their systems due to its security risks. Does somebody contradicts? As far as I know, this would be a significant limitation. We can now build with Java 5, 6 or 7 and the build can work with Java 5, 6 or 7 (regardless of the version used for building). Restricting this would require discussion, especially on less common platforms.

Usability: dictionary updates and profile migration
To solve a long-standing hyphenation issue https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=119087 I've just uploaded an updated version of the English dictionary. It is kept unpublished because of the usability issues below, but you can download it from http://extensions.openoffice.org/download/17415 If one is using OpenOffice 4.0.0, or upgrades 3.4.1 to 4.0.0 before updating the dictionary, there is no problem: once the new release is published, users will be notified and will be able to install the new dictionary. Instead, if one is using 3.4.1 and decides to update the dictionary BEFORE updating OpenOffice, there are some usability issues. Everything will work, no matter what the user chooses, but is the following scenario acceptable to avoid too many support requests? I'm using 3.4.1, I update the English dictionary, then I update to OpenOffice 4. I launch OpenOffice 4 and I see: Transfer personal data? 1) NO: No problem, OpenOffice 4 comes with the old dictionary, I'll be notified and update it later. 2) YES: I receive this warning: You are about to install version 2013.07.31 of the extension 'English spelling and hyphenation dictionaries and thesaurus'. The older version 2010.03.16 is already installed. Click 'OK' to replace the installed extension. Click 'Cancel' to stop the installation. 2.A) Cancel: the installation does not actually stop. It continues and I'm shown: You are about to install version 2010.03.16 of the extension 'English spelling and hyphenation dictionaries and thesaurus'. That version is already installed. Click 'OK' to replace the installed extension. Click 'Cancel' to stop the installation. 2.A.1) Cancel again... OpenOffice 4.0.0 - Fatal Error Extension has already been added: English spelling and hyphenation dictionaries and thesaurus [OK] Scary language aside, it's enough to restart OpenOffice and everything works, profile is migrated and I still have the old dictionary, I'll update it as if this was a clean installation. 2.A.2) OK... OpenOffice is launched, profile migrated, old dictionary, will be updated as in a clean installation. 2.B) OK: The installation continues and then I'm shown: You are about to install version 2010.03.16 of the extension 'English spelling and hyphenation dictionaries and thesaurus'. The newer version 2013.07.31 is already installed. Click 'OK' to replace the installed extension. Click 'Cancel' to stop the installation. 2.B.1) Cancel: like 2.A.1, Fatal Error but it's enough to relaunch OpenOffice (and, in this case, I already get the new dictionary) 2.B.2) OK: like 2.A.2, OpenOffice is launched normally and I get the old dictionary. So, is this acceptable? It seems that we already have 2.A in all installations, it's covered in the Release Notes and nobody complained so far. I could edit the Release Notes and simply suggest to always press OK. The only drawback is that users will have to download the new dictionary again (but they will notified about it). Of course, 2.B looks like a profile migration bug to me: I've already chosen to keep my (newer) dictionary and OpenOffice insists on installing the old one.

Re: first start of AOO 4

Answering yes is OK (dict is installed in AOO4), but when clicking [Abbrechen] (Cancel), AOO 4 is aborted too. Worth an issue? Is it similar (albeit much simpler) to what I describe in http://markmail.org/thread/gj7yptgnjkphhlrl i.e., you get an error but you can then restart OpenOffice 4 and everything works as expected? On that case, this doesn't sound particularly problematic and it's already covered in the Release Notes.

Copy pasting that piece is enough to crash AOO 4.0 Writer or Impress, while Calc works fine if pasting not in edit mode (i.e. not pasting in the formula bar, pasting in the bar results in a crash as well).
