Hi,
Thanks for the link.
I completed the build earlier, but i'm still not able to achieve the task
listed here https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Tutorial_Start
1)
This is the exact change i made in the file(Accelerators.xcu): (after line
123)
<!-- Tutorial-1 -->
<node oor:name="T_MOD1" oor:op="replace">
<prop oor:name="Command"><value xml:lang="x-no-translate">I10N
SHORTCUTS - NO TRANSLATE</value>
<value xml:lang="en-US">.uno:About</value>
</prop>
</node>
<!-- -->
2) Now the next steps says
"*You can copy your changed Accelerators.xcu file directly into the install
directory (\OpenOffice.org
3\Basis\share\registry\data\org\openoffice\Office\Accelerators.xcu).*
- Im unable to find this file. When they say install directory, Im assuming
they mean : opt/openoffice4/ So i tried the next option:
*Or, you can build the module and rebuild the installer (this assumed you
have previously fully built it, if not then just do the usual build --all
-P4 from the instsetoo module).*
Did this one i think. Just followed the building guide and got the software
running earlier. So far so good(I think)
*From the $SRCROOT\officecfg directory call "build", then "deliver" to send
the changed Accelerators.xcu file to the solenv module.*
Im assuming this is: source/aoo-trunk/main/officecfg . There is no
option to call build or deliver (these are terminal commands here?)
EDIT: i called
"./bootstrap" and then "source LinuxX86Env.Set.sh<http://linuxx86env.set.sh/>"
from main/ and then repeated the above step. It worked. Ouput:
deliver -- version: 275594
Module 'officecfg' delivered successfully. 1 files copied, 247 files unchanged
*Then change to the instsetoo module and call "build", then install.*
I dont need to do "build -all" here do I? I just used "build", and it did
so.
3)After installing when I run, the software and press ctrl+T nothing
happens.
Could you please tell me where I'm going wrong?
Thank You
