...cd into your neojava directory and "cvs update -r NeoOffice-2_0_Aqua_Beta_3_branch". I have created the new NeoOffice-2_0_Aqua_Beta_3_branch branch so that I could continue to commit bug fixes for Aqua Beta 3 while, at the same time, I can commit my integration of Novell's VBA support and enhanced OpenSymbol font in HEAD.

Answered my own question. Looks like it is time for me to keep two separate builds.

Here's another question : why does the 10.2.8 SDK option need to be checked for compiling under Panther ?

Also, the readme hasn't been entirely updated : the Tiger section still has a link to darwinports.org (although it now redirects to macports.org, unlike darwinports.opendarwin.org), and there's a small typo two lines later : The "port" commis should probably read The "port" command is. I know, this really isn't important, but it could be corrected in the next readme. Or perhaps, since the readme is plain text, I could attach an updated readme (in cvs diff format) to a new bug in BugZilla ?

To compile the Mozilla code. OpenOffice.org has grown very dependent on the Mozilla code and to compile Mozilla on 10.3.x, their build instructions require the 10.2.8 SDK to be available. In other words, Mozilla has a very hairy build just like OpenOffice.org. Wink

I just committed the correct to HEAD. Just cvs update the README.txt file.

FYI. If you are building HEAD, kill your build, "cvs update" in your neojava folder, and restart your build with "make build.oo_all".

I found one of my OOo patches didn't apply correctly so I fixed it.

Also, note that I say to invoke "make build.oo_all". This is because the NeoOffice custom code is still based on OOo 2.0.3 and so only the OOo portion of the build will work. My goal was to get the Mozilla and Novell code integrated into the OOo portion of our build in preparation for the upcoming OOo 2.1 release. I won't upgrade the NeoOffice custom code until after OOo 2.1 is officially released.

OK. So the resulting build won't be a working NeoOffice installation. I understand that you goal is to integrate the Mozilla and Novell code to the OOo portion of the build, but aside from making sure that the code will build, what will you do with this OOo 2.0.4 + Mozilla + VBA build ?

Not much. It basically is a transitional step to getting NeoOffice to use the OOo 2.1 code. Primarily, I wanted to verify that the Mozilla features and VBA features work properly. The VBA stuff lags behind the OOo builds so I had to use the OOo 2.0.4 for "phase 1".

BTW, if you want to test out the Mozilla or VBA support, you can run the OOo X11 that is built from a Terminal using the following commands:

1. cd into the neojava folder
2. Invoke the following command:
Code:
build/instsetoo_native/unxmacx[ip].pro/OpenOffice/install/en-US/staging/OpenOffice.org\ 2.0.app/Contents/MacOS/program/soffice


Also, to use VBA commands in your OOo Basic script, you need to put the following line near the top of your script. By default, Excel files with VBA in them will automatically get this line added:

Code:
Option VBASupport 1
