2011-03-24 03:40:09 -05:00

2005-11-09 02:30:17 -06:00
your own programs, or to use the API (scripting or remote control the

< p > The SDK provides an implicit configuration mechanism, which
configures the SDK build environment to your personal needs the first
time you use the SDK environment. This configuration step creates one or
two new setsdkenv_XXX scripts in the user's home directory:< / P >
< ul >
< li > < b > $HOME/$OO_SDK_NAME/setsdkenv_unix.sh< / b > and < b > $HOME/$OO_SDK_NAME/setsdkenv_unix.csh< / b > -> for Unix

< / ul >
< p > The automatically started configure script (Unix and Windows2000/XP)
2011-03-24 03:40:09 -05:00
requests relevant information and directories (SDK, LibreOffice, GNU make,
2005-11-09 02:30:17 -06:00
Java, C++), in order to prepare a working SDK environment. After completing the
configure script once, the newly created script is always used to set the
necessary environment variables for using the SDK and the required
tools.< / P >
< p > On UNIX operating systems, the configure script uses Perl. LINUX systems should have
installed a working Perl version, and on Solaris you can find a working
Perl version under < a target = "_blank" href = "http://www.sunfreeware.com/" title = "link to www.sunfreeware.com (online)" > http://www.sunfreeware.com/< / a > if
necessary. On Windows, the configure script uses Windows Script and
a JScipt. If you have problems with Windows Script, you can download a
newer version of < a href = "http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=C717D943-7E4B-4622-86EB-95A22B832CAA&displaylang=en" link " link to the download page for the Windows Script " > Windows Script< / a > .

< p > On other versions of Windows, use the batch
file template < b > < OO_SDK_HOME> \setsdkenv_windows.template< / b > ,
rename it to *.bat, and adapt it to your local environment.< / p >
