I think I understand what is going wrong with WikiPublisher on Windows. The FreeBSD port sets the --with-system-apache-commons=yes, and lists the all the commons-*.jar files as dependencies, so when AOO is installed on a machine, the commons-*.jar files will also get installed because they are dependencies. On Windows, and probably Linux and Mac, we don't set --with-system-apache-commons=yes. Instead we rely on bootstrap to download the source for these .jar files and we build the actual .jar files during the build. Only commons-lang.jar is needed for the base package and it gets packaged along with the rest of the AOO files. The WikiPublisher extension also requires commons-codec.jar, commons-httpclient.jar, and commons-logging.jar, but these don't get packaged along with the AOO files, and they also don't get packaged into the .oxt file for the extension. The only .jar files bundled with the extension are help.jar and mediawiki.jar. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
