(If I may add a comment here) Stephan, I think the documentation should be updated with detailed instructions on installation.

Hello, I was just wondering if the binary needs to be extracted from the tar.gz , as mentioned in ttp://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=devmsgNo=26512http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=devmsgNo=26512 , then when we do the configure script, what is the point of setting the prefix ?

No, not easily. For example, many of the shared libraries implement UNO services and export a component_getFactory C function to instantiate the UNO services implemented by the library. If you combine libraries (or even fold them into the executable) you have to adapt those component_getFactory functions. -Stephan - To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.org

Re: [dev] Re: where is the openoffice binary located
Hi Michael, Thank you very much! I have got the binary as you suggested. I can start the swriter binary without problems. However when I ran objdump on it to get a disassemble, it said the swriter binary is not recognized format. I am wondering why is that.

Re: [dev] Re: where is the openoffice binary located
Hi Cedric, Thanks a lot! My bad, yeah, soffice.bin is the real binary, thank you very much! I am wondering if there is a way when building it, statically link all the libraries together instead of using shared libraries (i know it sounds stupid) to get a big fat soffice.bin ?
