I'm not a core developer, so I don't know the details. However, renaming 
such essential keywords like "INCLUDE" and "LIB" is indeed a heavy change.


IMHO it's the same like switching the build system to gmake, scons or 
whatever. It has to be done very carefully and would be an enormous 
obstacle for us. There are f...cking many makefiles that need to be 
changed. We have tried to change the build system more than one time and 
both were not done until the end.


So, now we have a mix of 3-4 build systems inside the code. With a mix 
of renamed keywords it won't get easier to maintain the code and even 
not for new vontuneers to understand this.


What is currently used for building on Windows?
Any (good) need to chnge thisto VS 2015?

Who should do this change and is there a guarantee that the person is 
doing it until the end?


Is it for sure that this is only influencing how we can build on Windows 
or has it any side effects on the other platforms? If so, renaming is 
more than a normal obstacle.


We need to discuss and decide this very detailed and carefully.

Sorry for these strong words and questions. However, my gut feeling says 
"this is not a good idea".


My 2 ct.

Quick poll: can we rename the INCLUDE and LIB variables in Makefiles?

2021-05-14 Thread Arrigo Marchiori
Dear All,

I am attempting to build AOO using Visual Studio 2015.

While I am very far from being done, I need to take a ``heavy''
decision with respect to include and library paths.

Apparently, VS 2015 is relying on _environment variables_ such as:
 - INCLUDE listing the paths in which to search for header files [1];
 - LIB for listing the patch in which to search for libraries [2].

It looks like that the names "INCLUDE" and "LIB" are _already used_
across our Makefiles for command line parameters (see for example
main/solenv/inc/target.mk).

There is a conflict of names: the environment variables and the
command line parameters have different syntax. Therefore, in order to
let VC++ find everything it needs, we must either:

 A- rename the Makefile variables INCLUDE and LIB into something else
(such as AOO_INCLUDE or CMDLINE_INCLUDE)

 B- forget about environment variables and only use command-line
parameters (i.e. introduce VC_INCLUDE being the contents of Visual
Studio's INCLUDE environment variable adapted to the command-line
syntax).

I would go for option A- because option B- would lead to _very_ long
command lines and I would expect problems.

But would I stomp on anyone's feet if I did that? Would it be bad
practice? Would it violate any standards?

I am open to suggestions and criticism. Please let me hear your
opinion!

FWIW, I tend to agree. We fixed the bug. Maybe its not the best solution, but I 
don't see why we should continue to "focus" on 4.1.X at the expense of 4.2.X.

Release Notes for AOO 4.1.11

2021-05-14 Thread Marcus

Keith, thanks for creating new notes.

I've added a missing space to the headline.
Also moved it to the previously created release schedule, sorry haven't 
told about it yet.


I remember that you wanted to create a new template structure for the 
release notes. Is this already done? Or is it coming later?


Thanks

Marcus

Hopefully we can collect the exceptions in the BZ issue noted in this thread
and then agree on the direction.

The few I see so far are:
1. in-document links beginning with #.
2. .uno:XXX links
3. Links to local files.

I think all 3 are candidates but that's just me.

@Arrigo, were you planning on a PR for AOO41X ?

If not, I can try at least some of it but again I'm not really a C++ guy yet
:)

I suggest we make up our minds on the intended solution first, and
then start coding it. We have seen some interesting proposals, some of
which were quite complex (adding configuration settings, dialogs etc).

The three categories listed above would be candidates for
whitelisting, and this would be the quickest fix. But someone fluent
in UNO should first ensure all of us that no.2 is not going to reopen
any other backdoors!

Maybe this topic is worth a discussion with vote, the Apache way? So
we get our roadmap fixed.


There is also the suggestion (Dave's maybe?) that we add the 3
security levels (that are already in the code) for links to the UI
settings and let the user lock it down or open it up from where it is
now.

Yes, I was referring to this and to Peter's ideas.


Yes, but that will only work for trunk/AOO42X since we need to update
the translations too.

I agree, but how many 4.1.X versions do we want to publish before 4.2.0?
Now that we support two digits, please let us not point to 4.1.99 ! ;-)


As "soon" as all Release Blocker are fixed we can release 4.2.0 ;-)


yes, the goal is easy but to reach it that is the challenge.

+1

Otherwise we may need more time with improving the fix again and again.

A little Confluence page could be really helpful to collect the possible 
ways and with a column to express our all favorite way.
