Very good! I see that hanya, who already fixed several bugs, has just
submitted a patch or two for this one too. So I would recommend that, to
start, you:
1) Build OpenOffice (this is done, as I assume from previous
conversations here) and check that the bug still exists.
2) Post a comment to
https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=56998
saying that you are a new developer and you will review hanya's patch as
discussed on the dev list (you will need to register for Bugzilla).
3) Apply hanya's patches (I see two of them in the issue) to the source
code and rebuild. In the process, actually look at hanya's patches to
review the code.
4) Report on the bug page if the bug is solved or not.
If you have any difficulties in a step, just ask.
A note: after being dormant for weeks, issue 56998 is seeing
(relatively) a lot of activity recently. It might happen that your work
overlaps with other people's work in this specific case, but it's useful
to learn anyway.
Regards,
Andrea.
