Re: Getting started with development
Hi It worked like a charm. Thanks for the help. On Tue, Feb 11, 2014 at 2:22 PM, Andre Fischer awf@gmail.com wrote: On 10.02.2014 18:32, Pranet Verma wrote: Hi, Thanks for the link.

There is no option to call build or deliver (these are terminal commands here?) The module postprocess/ has to be built, too. So, do cd officecfg build deliver cd ../postprocess build deliver cd ../instsetoo_native build And install the new set of packages (I assume you are working on Linux). The part that is missing from the Wiki page seems to be that several XCU files have to be combined into main.xcd (that is done in postprocess/). You can skip building a new installation set cd ../instsetoo_native build and just copy main.xcd into your installed office like cd .. # (to get back to main/) cp solver/410/platform/xml/main.xcd office-installation/share/ registry/main.xcd where platform the content of the $INPATH environment variable and office-installation is something like /opt/openoffice4/ If you succeed then we can think about updating the Wiki page. -Andre EDIT: i called ./bootstrap and then source LinuxX86Env.Set.shhttp:// linuxx86env.set.sh/ from main/ and then repeated the above step. It worked.

Hi Pranet, Welcome to the Apache OpenOffice project! I'd recommend taking a look at our New Volunteer orientation pages for some useful background on the project and how it works: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/ The page on getting started with development is the key one: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-development.html That will get you started on downloading the source code and doing your first build of OpenOffice.
