Re: Pre-release commit messages

If svn supports it someone just needs to let me know how to do it. I tried 'svn 
mv' both from WD to repo and between repos and svn error out and did not 
support it.

If "clean" commit messages are more important keeping the move within SVN, then 
it is almost just as easy to manually copy (using the filesystem), and then 
'svn add; svn ci' on the whole dir.

I'm just following the guidelines. If people don't like em, that's fine, but 
don't complain about me for following them: change them.

If I remember it right it was just:

svn mv http1 http2

Worked for me with 4.1.6...

I received several 1000 mails in my inbox because I am subscribed to
commits@ ;-)

The guideline just says to move the directory.
We had real issues with downloads and archive server taking more than a
day to synchronize the deferred Windows builds now.

But this was the first time we did signing afterwards. I will try to
make the guidelines more clear in this respect.
For the next release I would suggest that we wait until the binaries
(mac and Windows) are re-uploaded on dist/dev and then move everything
with one command to dist/releases.


But let me say one thing: This was (will be) a GREAT release!

We have touched more files than ever, we had great support from Don
(FreeBSD), we had a PR from Akikazu (Android), we had a lot of new
people willing to test. I was also able to test binaries on OS/2 (thanks
Yuri).

And last but not least, you did a tremendous job on hunting down on the
Linux issue!

Thanks to everyone that put their precious spare time into this project!

Regards,

   Matthias

update NSS libraries

[John D'Orazio]

Hello all, ss I continue building and debugging the next release of my
Writer add-on, in which I'm attempting to include the *Chrome Embedded
Framework* in it's Java flavoured build (I'm using the builds from this
release

), I've stumbled upon the following situation in my Linux build:

The Chrome Embedded Framework is requiring a *libnss3.so* and
*libnssutil3.so* version of at least *3.22*, however OpenOffice also
utilizes these libraries and is packaging version *3.14*. Since the
OpenOffice libraries are the first ones picked up (I believe from the
*LD_LIBRARY_PATH* environment variable or similar), it is preventing my
add-on from building, complaining that CEF needs at least version 3.22. As
a test, I went and backed up the *libnss3.so* and *libnssutil3.so* found in*
/opt/openoffice4/program/* , and I copied my system's libraries to that
same folder. My system's libraries are at version *3.49* . After this I was
able to build the add-on and debug->run in OpenOffice, and at least at
first sight I didn't see any adverse effects in OpenOffice from the newer
NSS libraries.

Would it be feasible to update the NSS libraries in a next release of
OpenOffice, say 4.1.9? Carl Marcum was just confirming that in the current
4.1.8 release the packaged libraries are in fact at version 3.14.

Another idea, I just thought I'd throw it out there, as I've succeeded in
integrating the Chrome Embedded Framework in my Windows release and I see
the advantages of this, it allows to use all the latest web technologies
such as HTML5, CSS3, V8 javascript etc. etc. Perhaps it could be
interesting at some point to consider integrating the Chrome Embedded
Framework into OpenOffice itself. This could attract younger developers who
are often more versed in Web technologies than in C++ / Java, and would
allow to create some interesting User Interfaces, either in OpenOffice
itself or in the add-ons for OpenOffice that would be able to reuse an
already packaged CEF / JCEF framework. This framework is being widely
adopted now: VSCode uses it, Electron uses it, I believe Steam uses it, a
lot of program interfaces are now turning to Web technologies. Perhaps this
could be something new and interesting that would "distinguish" OpenOffice
in some way? Just a thought. In the meantime I'll pursue adopting it myself
for my own add-on and see where it brings me.

Hi John,

We already have a Pull Request for updating NSS:

https://github.com/apache/openoffice/pull/100

That said, I am not a developer. So I only pass the message! ;-)

   I was reading in the recent threads that there is a MacOS machine with 
Catalina available for testing builds, perhaps this could be tested on that 
machine? I'm needing an updated libnss3.so and libnssutil3.so in order to be 
able to integrate the Chrome Embedded Framework into my Java add-on for 
Writer... CEF (or JCEF in the Java flavoured build) on Linux is requiring at 
least v3.22 . So updating to 3.39 would work great!

   yes, that is one purpose of the machine is to enable dfevs without a mac to

4.1.8 was upgraded to nss 3.25.  This pull request
https://github.com/apache/openoffice/pull/100 will get us to 3.39, but it
has not even been merged to trunk because we haven't had the resources
to test it because of the push to get AOO 4.1.8 out the door.  It should
be possible to get it into 4.1.9.

It would be nice to get fully up to date, but newer versions of nss use
a lot of C99, which is not supported by the ancient Visual C++ that we
use.

Maybe Marcia is able to merge it?

It seems to be for ARM32, but that would be a start!
