Various unresolved issues with configure:
|
|
----------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* Providing the location of perl5 with --with-perl-home does not work.
|
|
Please make sure that perl5 is on your path.
|
|
|
|
* --with-gcc-home may cause a warning message to be displayed even if the
|
|
correct version of gcc is found. This should be harmless.
|
|
|
|
* It is at present time not possible to use --with-local-solenv to point
|
|
to a solvenv residing at a non-standard location.
|
|
|
|
* The configure script also creates a bootstrap script in the top-level
|
|
directory to support the creation of the build executable tools needed to
|
|
bootstrap the build process. These tools normally reside in the
|
|
solenv/$OUTPATH/bin directory for the supported platforms. It is hoped that
|
|
these tools will be removed from the solenv tree at some stage. This
|
|
bootstrap script does not yet work on Windows.
|
|
|
|
Running configure on Windows NT:
|
|
-------------------------------
|
|
|
|
* configure must be run from the Cygnus bash shell. On the bash command line
|
|
type "bash configure <options>" to run the script. The generated winenv.bat
|
|
file must then be executed from the 4NT shell in which you will be building
|
|
OpenOffice.
|
|
|
|
* The path to the Microsoft C/C++ compiler home directory must be given as
|
|
an MS-DOS format path on the command line with the configure option --with-cl-home
|
|
or entered interactively when prompted. MS-DOS format names are <8 characters
|
|
in length and don't contain spaces. To get the MS-DOS format of a Windows
|
|
pathname select the directory in a window and right-click and choose properties.
|
|
|
|
* configure automatically copies the top level makefile.rc from the config_office
|
|
directory to the top level directory when run. If you are not running configure and
|
|
are using a pre-generated winenv.bat to set up the build environment, then you must
|
|
manually copy the makefile.rc file in config_office to the top level directory.
|
|
|
|
* It is recommended that you close the Cygnus bash shell before you start the
|
|
build as it might cause problems later on.
