Previously, all of the README files have been renamed to README.md and now, the contents of these files were changed to use Markdown format. Other than format inconsistency, some README.md files lacked information about modules, or were out of date. By using LibreOffice / OpenOffice wiki and other documentation websites, these files were updated. Now every README.md file has a title, and some description. The top-level README.md file is changed to add links to the modules. The result of processing the Markdown format README.md files can be seen at: https://docs.libreoffice.org/ Change-Id: Ic3b0c3c064a2498d6a435253b041df010cd7797a Reviewed-on: https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/113424 Tested-by: Jenkins Reviewed-by: Michael Stahl <michael.stahl@allotropia.de> Reviewed-by: Adolfo Jayme Barrientos <fitojb@ubuntu.com>

# Tools and Makefile Fragments Necessary for Compilation
|
|
|
|
This module contains many tools and makefile configuration pieces,
|
|
critical for building LibreOffice:
|
|
|
|
- `bin/`
|
|
|
|
- contains lots of tools used during the build:
|
|
|
|
- `concat-deps*`
|
|
these aggregate, and remove duplicates from module
|
|
dependencies, to accelerate build times.
|
|
|
|
- `make_installer.pl`
|
|
this script executes the compiled instructions from
|
|
the `scp2/` module to create an installer, and/or to
|
|
do a local install for the smoketest.
|
|
|
|
- `gbuild/`
|
|
|
|
implementation of the LibreOffice build system
|
|
See `gbuild/README` for more info.
|
|
|
|
- `gdb/`
|
|
|
|
lots of nice python helpers to make debugging -much- easier
|
|
that (eg.) print UCS2 strings as UTF-8 on the console to
|
|
help with debugging.
|
|
|
|
- `inc/`
|
|
|
|
old `/` increasingly obsolete dmake setup and includes, we are
|
|
trying to entirely rid ourselves of this
|
|
|
|
- `src/`
|
|
|
|
useful standard `/` re-usable component map files for components
|
|
which shouldn't export anything more than a few registration
|
|
symbols.
|
|
|
|
- `flatpak-manifest.in`
|
|
|
|
This file is used by `flatpak/build.sh` from the LO `dev-tools`
|
|
repository to generate the flatpak package. `download.lst` is
|
|
a `Makefile` snippet, so there seems to be no easy way to use
|
|
`download.lst` for the manifest generation (`build.sh` uses `sed`),
|
|
and its information must be kept in sync manually.
