Hi Ariel, After I reconfigured the project with --build-with-package-format option, debugging symbols were successfully generated, even before I tried to use dbglevel=2 or debug=t in the target module.
I also updated wiki https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step for these options. By the way, I also tried build debug=true dbg_build_only=true. It keep eat up my diskspace ( 35GB before I break it ). I wonder what it does and whether it is still a valid command. Thank you for all the effort. 2014-08-17 0:55 GMT+08:00 Ariel Constenla-Haile <arie...@apache.org>: > On Sun, Aug 17, 2014 at 12:27:39AM +0800, Hung Mark wrote: > > Here is how I did: > > After I build & deliver in the module, I go into instsetoo_native, then > > build --all -P4 -- -P4 > > After that, I install all packages generated with dpkg -i. > > Will it work this way?
