Getting the Source

Use:

svn co http://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/tags/DEV300_m40

to checkout the source. Make sure you are using http instead of svn, if you are checking the source out in Seneca.

Setting C and C++ compilers

• export CC='distcc gcc'
• export CXX='distcc g++'

• Read this as well:http://www.linux-tutorial.info/modules.php?name=ManPage&sec=1&manpage=distcc

Setting Distcc for OO build

• Create directory "/usr/lib/distcc/bin"
• Make symbolic links in the directory
  • ln -s /usr/bin/distcc /usr/lib/distcc/bin/g++
  • ln -s /usr/bin/distcc /usr/lib/distcc/bin/c++
  • ln -s /usr/bin/distcc /usr/lib/distcc/bin/cc
  • ln -s /usr/bin/distcc /usr/lib/distcc/bin/gcc
• Add the directory at the first of your PATH environment variable
  • export PATH=/usr/lib/distcc/bin:$PATH
• After configuration is done, add MAXPROCESS in environment variable
  • export MAXPROCESS=8
• "*note* if having problems with libnss.so use below command
  • export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib64:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
• Execute dmake with option "-E"
  • dmake -E
• Read this as well dmake Man Page

A script to Log and Time the execution

To be able to capture the output of your execution and time it at the same time, save this script in a file. I called this file "logNtime". Give "logNtime" execution permission:

#!/bin/bash
__cname__=$1
echo "$__cname__ exec time: ------------------" >> "$__cname__"time.log
echo start time: `date` >> "$__cname__"time.log
while [[ $# != 0 ]]; do
   __cmd__="$__cmd__ $1"
shift
done
if [ -f "$__cname__"output.log ]; then
  mv "$__cname__"output.log "$__cname__"output.`date +%y%m%d%H%M%S`.log
fi
echo $__cmd__ >> "$__cname__"time.log
$__cmd__ >> "$__cname__"output.log 2>> "$__cname__"output.log
echo end time: `date` >> "$__cname__"time.log
echo "-----------------------------------------" >> "$__cname__"time.log

Then run your commands like:

logNtime dmake -E

This will create two log files: dmakeoutput.log and dmaketime.log which hold the output of dmake and it's execution

Configuring The Source

Configuring error is different for every machine.
Here is some errors and fixes for it.

Issues	Solutions
no cups/cups.h	yum install cups-devel
no JDK installed	yum install java-1.7.0-icedtea-devel.x86_64
no gperf	yum install gperf.x86_64
no Ant	yum install ant.x86_64
Can't locate Archive/Zip.pm in @INC	yum install perl-Archive-Zip
no tcsh	yum install tcsh

If using the pre-built Mozilla libraries, this configure command works:

./configure --with-use-shell=bash --prefix=/home/dev/dev-install/ --with-system-stdlibs --disable-build-mozill

Setting Environment Variables

   source LinuxX86-64Env.Set.sh

Bootstrapping

    ./bootstrap

Build

  dmake 2>~/errorLog
