Hi All, I had a bit of time to work on the install time index generation, so I've created a patch that implements a custom action for the MSI installer which I think will do just that once hooked in.
As yet it's untested inside MSI as I'm not sure which files to edit in the MSI templates to patch it in ( I have never developed anything for MSI before). I did test it by pulling it into a command line tool that I observed to generate all the required index files when pointed at a pseudo- libreoffice install with a set of dict-xx directories. I wasn't sure what the best approach was to finding out which dictionaries need indexing as I'm not sure what can be gained out of the MSI database. In the end I looked at a bunch of the other custom actions and decided to just do a "mini-find" from the LibreOffice install path for the dictionary extensions and generate all the idx files for any dat file found. I thought it may be possible to do a query on the MSI database and determine all the .dat files. Assuming this is a reasonable approach, what remains is to hook the custom action into the MSI installer process and then test it a bit. -- Regards, Steven Butler
