I repost this, somehow this message got lost during the Kenai migration ....
Hi,
with the integration of the cws l10nmove the way change how to make a
localized build. The reason for the change is that we want that the
contl10n process integrates new localization every milestone. We moved
the localization into a own repository, master_l10n / cws_l10n, to
reduce the growing of the main repository caused by the localization. As
we have about 100 languages a single changed string causes 100 changes
in the l10n module. Most developers don't need the localization thus it
does not make sense to download/clone all the changesets from the l10n
process.
In case you are doing en-US only builds only, e.g. while developing then
nothing will change for you.
If you want a localized master build you need to do this:
- clone the OOo repository ( of cause! )
- clone the l10n repository
- copy a so called source_config file beside your both repositories
- use configure --with-lang=de,cs,xy as usual
- clone the OOo repository
> hg clone http://hg.services.openoffice.org/master/DEV300 ooo
- clone the l10n repository
> hg clone http://hg.services.openoffice.org/master_l10n/DEV300 l10n
please name it l10n as we refer to that in the makefile system
- copy a so called source_config file beside your both repositories
This source_config file is used to introduce both repositories to
build.pl and possible further tools. For some more info about
source_config please read this:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Source_config
> ls
l10n ooo source_config
> cat source_config
[repositories]
ooo=active
l10n=active
- use configure --with-lang=de,cs,xy as usual
> cd ooo
> ./configure --with-lang=de [...]
> ./bootstrap
> source LinuxX86-64Env.Set
> echo $gb_REPOS
/net/so-cwsserv03/export/cws/l10nmove/ooo
/net/so-cwsserv03/export/cws/l10nmove/l10n
The gb_REPOS environment variable introduce the repositories to the gnu
build system.
Just for the case anyone uses the cws fetch command, I added a new
switch "-r" for additional repositories. Add this to your .cwsrc file:
L10N_HG_REMOTE_SOURCE=http://hg.services.openoffice.org/
Read here for some more background about the .cwsrc file:
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Mercurial/Cws#Configuring_cws_fetch
> cws fetch -c l10nmove -r l10n l10nmove
This will clone the ooo and l10n repository of your cws ( e.g. l10nmove )
Cheers,
Ivo
