FR forum anomaly

2018-12-03 Thread FR web forum
Hello,
Since migration, we have lost rewriting rules.
Before, if we input: 
h**ps://forum.openoffice.org/fr/forum/ftopic35311.html
Webserver rewrite to:
h**ps://forum.openoffice.org/fr/forum/viewtopic.php?t=35311
Thanks to fix it

The old VM has now been decommissioned. I removed the "migration in 
progress" note on the Wiki home page last weekend, as the Wiki has been 
running on the new VM without issues for some days.


Just another note: the old Wiki VM was (and still is) hosting the 
OpenOffice BugZilla bot, the service that annotates BugZilla issues with 
relevant OpenOffice commits: e.g., you write "#i123456#" in a code 
commit log and this posts a comment to Bugzilla.


This is currently unavailable and it will hopefully be restored soon. We 
have all relevant scripts; they still need to be updated and installed.


Regards,
  Andrea.

I've tested the forum during and after migration too. Everything looks good.

Many thanks Dave for the migration. The Forum has a much more difficult 
setup than the MWiki and it will still be quite challenging to upgrade 
and maintain it, but at least this important step is done.

  Andrea.

You are all welcome!

The setup is seemingly complex, but as I’ve gone through it I understand it 
thoroughly. It’s complexity of using links actually makes it easier to do 
upgrades than it appears. You can upgrade one language BB at a time as each has 
a separate mySQL database and directory with links into the phpBB version. 
phpBB packages provide a database update procedure.

Next steps in the next couple of months:

(1) Update the TEST instance to phpBB 3.2.4 (released less than one month ago.)
(2) Add RU language BB instance. (We have a few people who will support this 
BB.)
(3) Update each BB instance in co-ordination with NL administrators.
(4) Can we resurrect support for the ZH language instance?

Regards,
Dave

Remember (and this is a note to myself too, for the new Wiki): we should 
update the files at


https://svn.apache.org/repos/infra/infrastructure/trunk/docs/services
(access might be restricted)

with information about the new setup.

Regards,
  Andrea.

Re: Win64 progress at almost 50%; the challenging Win64<->UNO bridge looms

2018-12-03 Thread Damjan Jovanovic
Thank you Patricia.

Yes knowing some x86_64 assembly would help, but don't go too far, it's
only about 2000 lines of code on other platforms. I don't know much of it
myself yet; just that the 32 bit registers grow to 64 bits and have an
additional name starting with "R" for the 64 bit version (eg. the 32 bit
EAX has a corresponding 64 bit RAX, EIP and RIP, etc.).

The Win64 ABI has similarities to the *nix ABI (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X86_calling_conventions#x86-64_calling_conventions)
and we already have the *nix ABI implemented, so we might be able to reuse
some of it. We can certainly copy its x86_64 assembly as needed ;).

The code is all in main/bridges. I want to port that module to gbuild
first, so I have a good understanding of its general structure.

A LibreOffice developer blogged about his porting experience at
http://tml-blog.blogspot.com/2011/03/
Apparently exception handling was the hardest part.
