Hi Andrea, I've updated https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step wiki page with Ubuntu 14.04 issues. Please have a look at it and tell me about the changes.

Do both 32bit and 64bit windows 7 work? Yes. 2. It specifies cygwin 32bit specifically. Does it work to mix them up? Once I tried cygwin 64bit under a Windows 7 64bit and the AOO build did not work. As AOO is a 32bit application under all Windows platforms I think it makes sense to have an 32bit build environment under Windows. 3. Which NSIS version should be used? On [1] a specific NSIS version is mentioned - this one should work. I do not know. if a newer version is available and also works. 4. Can I use dbghelp.dll from Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 3.5. SP1 ? I assume that this should work, if it is the 32bit version. I don't have much experience building code in Windows. I'm working in a 64 bit environment. Please advice which combination would be easier. I hope that my answers help you.

[Build] Modifying oowintool
Hi, I'm trying to compile OO on Windows, specifically 8.1. The problem is that Microsoft provides on the top page only Visual Studio 2013, and 2010. I'm using free Express edition. Configure stops every time on compiler. When was used 2010 compiler, configure says that the version is less than required. So I went forward with 2013. But now I don't have an idea how to solve the problem, probably in oowintool script https://fisheye6.atlassian.com/browse/ooo/main/oowintool?r=1413471 Configure stops an says: -- checking for bash... /usr/bin/bash checking ml.exe assembler path... checking for ml.exe... no found (/cygdrive/c/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0/VC/bin) checking for zip... /usr/bin/zip checking for unzip... /usr/bin/unzip checking for dbghelp.dll... found and executable checking for vcredist_x86.exe... found and executable checking for vcredist_x64.exe... found and executable Can't find MS Visual Studio / VC++ at ./oowintool line 248. configure: error: oowintool failed to copy CRT -- so I opened this script and saw that it didn't recognize my 2013 compiler so I tried to edit it, but it still not works.

Re: successful build in ubuntu Linux 14.04
Hi Andrea, so I didn't downgrade 4.9 to 4.8: I've always been on 4.8. Did you have issues with 4.9 because you had explicitly upgraded to 4.9? Even after updating all packages I'm still on 4.8. yes, I think I explicitly upgraded to 4.9 to check some compiler option. The issue 125475 is with g++4.9. If people won't get 4.9 unless they explicitly install it, it's better to make it clearer in the Wiki page too (there is a reference to default compilers now, but I'd like to check this with you before editing). okay, then, if it is not clear, then please edit it to make it clearer.
