Bug #: 44732
Summary: EasyHack: linking / PDF import cleanups
Classification: Unclassified
Product: LibreOffice
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: Libreoffice
AssignedTo: libreoffice-bugs@lists.freedesktop.org
ReportedBy: michael.me...@novell.com
Currently we have to build two copies of 'basegfx' in order to link one
dymamically, and one statically into the "PDF import" plugin. The latter used
to be an extension we'd ship separately, but for LibreOffice this is always
built-in so the separate library is un-necessary.
So: what needs doing ? :-)
The pdf importer is in sdext/source/pdfimport/ - we need to turn it, from an
extension, into a normal component, and link against a non-static version of
basegfx.
That involves a few tweaks to the makefile.mk to drop rules that create the
.oxt and tweak the linking a little. [ the dmake includes that make all those
rules work are in solenv/inc/ ].
It would be worth re-basing that top-level makefile.mk on eg.
ucb/source/ucp/webdav/makefile.mk - that generates a component that will be
bundled.
Then we need to tweak 'scp2' to distribute the shared library instead of the
extension; git grep for 'dav' in scp2 to see how to do that.
Finally we need to register this built-in component in:
postprocess/packcomponents/makefile.mk
if it is enabled. Test compiling from clean is prolly a good idea to check it.
Thanks ! :-) it should clean the code, and shrink the install size too.
