Re: I would like to contibute to open office

2018-08-20 Thread Patricia Shanahan
I know building AOO is difficult. The first time a tried I gave up. The 
second time, I asked for help each time I got stuck, and succeeded in 
building it.


The core problem is a combination of history, and the number of 
different supported platforms.

Welcome to OpenOffice.

You are contributing by taking part in the OpenOffice Project. There is
no formal boarder.

We give you access as you go along. So do you have tried to do already
something?

Try to solve some bug (https://bz.apache.org/ooo/), try to build
OpenOffice from our guide:

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step


If you see in the wiki something you want to change or write some code
documentation ask for an account on dev mailing list.

If you have any questions especially when you get stuck ask on dev
mailing list.


I hope this gives some orientation.


All the best

You are, of course, free to choose any project you like, but I do have a 
suggestion.


In general, AOO uses its own data structures rather than STL templates. 
I believe it could be made more flexible and more secure by refactoring 
towards using standard library classes.


Specifically, AOO has its own String class. My suggestion is to 
investigate whether it could be rewritten as a light wrapper around the 
standard string class. This requires understanding of data structures 
and algorithms, as well as C++ coding. It would be a suitable project 
for a group to work on together, though an individual could make 
progress on it.
