PostPosted: Mon Jan 12, 2004 3:56 pm    Post subject: how to debug?

What's the best way to debug NeoOffice ? I can't even manage to start it from the console.

Can I somehow launch it under the debugger's control ?

Problem is (when I launch it via its icon) that it crashes upon displaying the splashscreen.

Stephan,

You have a _really_ older version of NeoOffice then. VirtualDevices haven't been Carbon/QuickDraw based since last year early. Pull from HEAD.

Second, what you do is drop all the applications into a bundle.

1) Download http://www.iceni.org/~dan/NeoOffice.app.tar.gz
2) Install NeoOffice to a temp dir using instsetoo/unxmacxp.pro/01/normal/setup -v -nogui -r:script where 'script' is a regular install script file
3) Drag each folder from your aqua install temp folder _into_ the folder here:

help -> into Contents/
cp -r program/* -> Contents/MacOS/
share -> into Contents/
user -> into Contents/

4) Copy the macosx_extras/graphics/NeoOffice.icns -> Contents/Resources

And you should now have a double-clickable application...

For debugging, you'll either have to use gdb or start using debugging fprintfs Smile If you need any help, just give me a yell on IRC tomorrow or whenever.

What I did was just a
cvs co NeoOffice
from anoncvs.neooffice.org. So this will not bring the most recent stuff ? A cvs update just changed a few menu related things, so how can I pull the development version ?

What will be the commandline to start neooffice then ? Is it just the soffice.bin ?

Stephan,

you can find up-to-date build-instructions in our NeoWiki: http://sixthcrusade.com/neowiki/index.php?page=BuildInstructions.

I hope, that helps.

On the NeoWiki there are some typos, regarding the install and setup directories. I guess it is
cd /neooffice-setup
before running ./install.

But the bigger problem is, that both links regarding the torso download do not work. I get permission denied on the ftp link and the http link is empty.....

Perhaps, you can have a look ?

I checked the server and the link for sixthcrusade and the torso is still there. if the link isn't working for you (did you try to 'download target'?) then you can try just going to

http://neo-downloads.sixthcrusade.com

and finding it there.

Stephan,

thanks for your hint. I have corrected my typo error in the NeoWiki.

An I will have a look at my ftp-server. I've had to re-install my Linux-box after trying to update my kernel from 2.4 to 2.6 and misconfigured it very hard ;-(

Thomas,

what is the neooffice-install directory good for when you later start the setup with -prefix=/xxx which leaves that directory empty ?
And if that directory is not used, setting the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH is perhaps also not required ? And wouldn't we need a setenv here, assuming tcsh is used.

Sorry for all those questions, but perhaps others are confused, too...

Stephan,

the build-instructions have historically grown from the old "flaming yeti" instructions. You are right, the instructions could be a little bit confusing Wink

I have "modernized" the instructions in the Wiki. Thank you for your suggestion.
