Re: [dev] OpenOffice without Java

[Tobias Krais]

Hi Chris,

 1. Would there be any OOo performance gains by disabling Java in the build
 process?

no. Java is activated as soon as it is needed and then stays in memory.

 2. If java was disabled in the build what besides the Base application and
 some Wizards would be affected?

There are indeed some wizards. I think the cricular letter is an example.

 3. In order to build OOo without Java are there any other flags that need to
 be passed besides the --disable Java?

I don't think so, but others can give you a better answer.

Greetings, Tobias

AFAICT no. The Java interfaces seem to be created upon demand (the very 
first time with a noticeable delay, after that not noticable at all).

Definitely, do not do that unless you *must* !
In todays world you truly would be *crippling* OpenOffice by such an action!

E.g. the scripting framework is written in Java, removing Java means 
that you cannot use scripting languages like JavaScript, BeanShell or 
ooRexx for OpenOffice anymore!


[Also, for some applications using Java the Java reflection is very 
important. So if there are OpenOffice distributions not offering that 
important feature, definitely a certain class of Java applications could 
not be deployed.]

Sorry, have truly no idea...
