3 Introduction

4 Speaker introduction : Eric Bachard, Professor of Applied Physics, UTBM ( France) Education Project Co-Lead Developer for Mac OS x porting Project Contributing for OpenOffice.org Project since

5 OpenOffice.org Project is... A Community Project ( LGPL licence for code, PDL for documentation) Multi OS ( Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, Solaris, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, OpenVMS ) Multi architectures (Intel, PowerPC, ARM, Alpha...including 32, 64bits )

6 Everything is project in OpenOffice.org Accepted projects : framework, gsl, porting... (24) Native Lang Community (>72 ) Incubator projects (14 ) WebWork ( 5) e.g. Education Project is incubator project ( )

7 The purpose of the Workshop is...

8 Discover the tools commonly used in OpenOffice.org development Do some little hacks together Have Fun :-)

9 OpenOffice.org source code

10 Languages used in OpenOffiee.og C++ : ~ 90 % Java : <4,5% Ansi C : ~ 2,5 % Peol : 1% Otheo (11 ) < 2 % Source :

11 Sources means approximatively 150 modules -> OpenOffice.org is a framework

12 The complete tree + wiki description : http //wikieseoviiese.pen.ffiee.og/wiki//.uoieei.deedioeit.oies

13 Download OpenOffice.org source code -> Use cvs

14 Prepare : - create a dir containing all the sources : mkdir FOSDEM08_m248 - go into the right dir cd FOSDEM08_m248 - use a CVSROOT environment variable export CVSROOT='':pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.services.openoffice.org:/cvs''

15 Checkout the code, e.g. : cvs co -r SRC680_m248 OpenOffice2

16 Or download one module only... cvs co -r SRC680_m248 starmath

17 Manage it...

18 Master workspace Milestone Child workspace... and EIS :

19 Create a child workspace : (e.g. : fosdem08demo) Planned state

20 Create an issue for the cws Add the issue to the cws Set the cws as new

21 -> use the wiki

22 Connect With the OOo Developer Teams

23 IRC Channels : server : irc.freenode.net channel : #dev.openoffice.org Other IRC channels :

24 Mailing lists (examples) : dev@openoffice.org: general developers mailing list mac@porting.openoffice.org: mac porting specific list dev@gsl.openoffice.org: vcl specific list (more on vcl later)

25 Some words about become DomainDeveloper for OpenOffice.org project

26 As Summary... For commits/source code -> cvs For workspace management -> EIS (+ cwstools ) Documentation: the wiki Urgent Questions: IRC Important questions: use mailing lists

27 Build it...

28 Configure the build solenv build dependencies the solver

29 Configure the build solenv build dependencies the solver

30 Configure the build solenv build dependencies the solver

31 Configure the build solenv build dependencies the solver

32 Complement: (url for libraries dscription on the wiki )

33 Hack it

34 Todo for the commit: Check out clean starmath code Show how create a patch in a modified module Add the module into the cws fosdem08demo Commit a change in fosdem08demo Extract a change from the module

35 Bonsai : (bonsai url ) example: nativeprintdlg01 cws

36 Buildbots : (buildbots url ) -> we see our change :-)

37 Let's start debugging Rebuild starmath using symbols use gdb Add some breakpoint and trace a bit

38 Some words about OpenOffice.org Education Project...
