About this template

general

• create runnable instance of OOo in solver
  • solver becomes incrementally filled office tree
  • libraries can be executed from solver
  • UNO services are registered from text files
  • configurable place for solver
• build should not modify source tree
  • configurable place for output directories
• platform independent help content
• evaluate integration of OOo SDK and OOo build environments
• find a way to move out localization completely (localize only strings, not resources)
  • which resource types can be localized
  • which of them do we localize
  • find replacements for all non-string types
  • do we have the best file format for localizations?
• get rid of STLPORT
• merge the different ways to configure a build environment ("configure","setsolar"(Sun))
• get rid of HID.LST
• get rid of superfluous compiler switches, check "noopt" directives
• always enable exceptions, check if removing of throw() directives (to limit code size) is possible
• get rid of service registration in packing process
• don't use image modules for rsc compilation, use list in solver instead
• move external tarballs out of the code repository

GNU make migration

• make GNU make>=3.81 and GNU touch (from findutils) available on all bots
• setup TOUCH var in configure and solar environment to GNU touch
• fix otool linking on OSX, check rpath stuff on solaris
• fix internal windows bots for new top level files
• implement touching back PackageParts while taking into account subsecond timestamps
