Re: Updating Java libraries

Hello Michael; Updating those libraries is a bit of a task. For the hsqldb update you would need to start looking at the code here: http://hg.services.openoffice.org/cws/hsqldb19/ For Lucene (which I updated) you need to fix the long_path patch so that it applies to the new Lucene version. Up
