Hi Tom,
Today I tried to download and then activate the MySQL Native Connector you put 
on
LO-Extensions. However, I still get the error message
"loading component library failed. 
file:///home.../.../..32bit.oxt/mysqlc.uno.so."
Any idea what could be the reason? The only thing I can think of is that I use
LO 3.4.2 (in addition to using a "bleeding-edge" Debian-Wheezy!).
Thanks for any ideas.
Regards
Heinrich

Hi :)
Thanks :)  So Building neatly avoids the packagiong issues of .rpm versus .deb?  We 
just need 1 for 32bit Gnu&Linux and 1 for 64bit, not 1 for each of the main 
families (Arch? Slackware, Debian, RedHat, errr)?  So, Heinrich's build might be 
good to upload to your page?

Doing a build sounds quite technical to me.  I need to look at the guide as i have 
never done it before (well twice doing copy&paste from guides and not having a 
clue what i was doing).  Anyway, thanks for the link to the guide :)  Heinrich, has 
it helped?
Regards from
Tom :)

Hi Tom,

After 1 person has built it for their system can the built package be uploaded 
somewhere for other people to use?  If so could it be uploaded to the new LO 
Extensions&templates site?

This is precisely what I have done for Mac OSX.


How generic are builds?  Would it cover the entire family (Ubuntu, Mint, 
Trisquel etc), just Debian, one particular release of Debian, or just the 
specific machine?

I really don't know, but I'm hasarding a guess that they are fairly
generic - however, each distrib currently packages its own version of
the connector extension to accompany any given release of their own
version of LibO. What is certain is that if you want a 32bit connector,
you have to build with the 32bit mysql connector C library, and if you
want 64bit, well...the corresponding bit library for that.

If you look at the OOo extension site, the MySQL native connector
extension was provided in the following flavours :

http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/mysql_connector

Linux (32bit)
Linux x86_64
Mac OS X (32bit only)
Solaris Sparc
Solaris x86
Windows (I assume only 32bit, but who knows ?)

So, one would need to build for these arch/OSes and also Win64.


Alex
