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/

Sadly, this information is outdated.

  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?)

The module postprocess/ has to be built, too. So, do

cd officecfg
build
deliver
cd ../postprocess
build
deliver
cd ../instsetoo_native
build

And install the new set of packages (I assume you are working on Linux). The part that is missing from the Wiki page seems to be that several XCU files have to be combined into main.xcd (that is done in postprocess/). You can skip building a new installation set

cd ../instsetoo_native
build

and just copy main.xcd into your installed office like

cd ..   # (to get back to main/)
cp solver/410/<platform>/xml/main.xcd <office-installation>/share/registry/main.xcd

where <platform> the content of the $INPATH environment variable and <office-installation> is something like /opt/openoffice4/


If you succeed then we can think about updating the Wiki page.

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

Hi,
Could you please tell me how to get started with Open Office development?

I began by following this guide :
https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Development
, but after building the source and installing the program when I reached
the first tutorial ( https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Tutorial_Start )
it
failed(I'm pretty sure i followed all the steps but ctrl+T just doesnt
work
like its supposed to) .
The page does seem to be outdated to me (considering some folder name and
syntax of files do not match with the guide, though i may be wrong), I
was
wondering if there was a better source to learn from.

I'm reasonably comfortable with c/c++ , and am pretty active in
competitive
programming, but developments new for me , so any help is appreciated.
Also, if possible could you direct me to modules using c/c++
specifically?
Im open to learning new languages, but to start with I would prefer
working
in a familiar environment.

Hi Pranet,

Welcome to the Apache OpenOffice project!   I'd recommend taking a
look at our New Volunteer orientation pages for some useful background
on the project and how it works:

http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/

The page on getting started with development is the key one:

http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/intro-development.html

That will get you started on downloading the source code and doing
your first build of OpenOffice.  Getting a build running on Linux is
pretty easy.  Windows takes a bit more effort to set up the pre-reqs.
(I've never done a Mac build, but I hear it is easy as well).  Either
way, give it a try and post further messages if you get stuck.

Regards,

-Rob


Thank You
