Re: [lo-4.2] regview fails to show rdb files
No trivial issues encountered. -O was the only change needed Thanks Neeraj ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
Re: [lo-4.2] regview fails to show rdb files
thanks Stephan, -O works. Sorry, I'm coming back to LO after 6 months. While last time, I was fairly new, so went with 4.0 release version. this time I am starting with beta 4.2 and skipped 4.1 entirely. I have only tried compilation . During the week, I'll have more time to try the app itself. I might come back with more trivial issues then. neeraj On Fri, Jan 10, 2014 at 4:25 AM, Stephan Bergmann sberg...@redhat.comwrote: On 01/10/2014 09:46 AM, Stephan Bergmann wrote: * Looks like starting with LO 4.2 cppumaker has a problem when the specified output directory is not an absolute path (incl. the case where you do not explicitly specify an output directory via -O at all).

Re: [lo-4.2] regview fails to show rdb files
Hi Stephan, I had built an extension last year with help from you and others on this list. I am having issues building it with 4.2 . The build had 7 steps and fails at 3rd with 4.2. would you be able to point me in the right direction. 1. idlc -C -I my file.IDL 2.regmerge myfile.rdb /UCR myfile.urd 3. cppumaker -BUCR -Gc offapi.rdb types.rdb myfile.rdb 4.2 doesn't support options -BUR so I took them out leaving -C and it builds but the output dirname is .org instead of org 4. gcc options include myfile_impl.cxx Fails with missing XInterface.hpp 5. gcc -o myshlib.so 6. Zip my file.oxt 7. Unopkg add -f my file.oxt Thanks Neeraj ___ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice

Re: [lo-4.2] regview fails to show rdb files
Hi Stephan,
that was it. I had modified the loutil.py to add both 4.0 and 4.2 and since
4.0 was before 4.2, it was being picked up.
With 4.2, the python version from 4.0 was messing things up.
After I removed program 4.0 etc, it works for 4.2 as expected.
For some reason it work for me with and without , .
thanks for the help and time.
Neeraj
