Hello! I downloaded The OpenOffice deb files and Sdk deb file... I used dpkg from command line to install all the deb files.. They got installed in /opt/openoffice4 and Sdk in /opt/openoffice4/sdk . I had to use deb files from the website because i could download it from the apt-get... I am Using Ubuntu 14.10! When i tried to compile any example in /opt/openoffice4/sdk/examples/DevelopersGuide/ProfUNO/ i got many errors.. . To overcome some of these i did : 1. copied all files from sdk/bin/ to my root folder /bin/ because the error said /bin/cppumaker : command not found 2. copied the types.rdb files to my root folder / because it said something about registries not loaded. 3. made a few variables in the makefile like OO_SDK_HOME JAVA_HOME JAVA_BIN to allow compilation... 4. Made folder for each example in LinuxExamples.out/bin folder because g++ always gave the error that no file or folder. . Now, i am able to compile the examples but when i try to run them with : make string_samples.run or anything like that then again i am getting errors regarding command not found.
cd ../../../../LINUXexample.out/bin && office_connect /bin/sh: 1: office_connect: not found Makefile:100: recipe for target 'office_connect.run' failed make: *** [office_connect.run] Error 127 I think it is because of this line in the makefile : %.run: $(OUT_BIN)/%$(EXE_EXT) cd $(subst /,$(PS),$(OUT_BIN)) && $(basename $@) I have no experience of Makefiles and also i am new to openoffice sdk... I am guessing that these errors are happening beacause i installed the packages manually from dpkg instead of using apt-get,,, Also, i did use setsdkenv_unix once but i think it didnt work as expected as the variables in Makefile are NOT set.. . . It took me nearly a week to figure out these errors and now my patience is wearing out. I know that has to be an elegant solution to this problem. Please help! . Abhinav
