 This document describes the requirements and actions that you need to build
 OpenOffice.org on <Linux>Linux.</Linux><Solaris>Solaris.</Solaris><Win_tcsh>Windows using Cygwin shell.</Win_tcsh><Windows>Windows.</Windows>
 </p>

 <p>
 Commands you have to type on the keyboard
 follow this syntax throughout this document:
 </p>

 <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 <pre>
 <KBD>config_office&gt; ./configure</KBD>
 </pre>

 <p>
 In this example, the script <CODE>configure</CODE> is executed
 in the directory <CODE>config_office</CODE>.
 </p>
 <p>
 Since OpenOffice.org 2.1.x (SRC680_m175) it is possible to use <b>bash</b> instead
 of tcsh. This has to be enabled with the <CODE>--with-use-shell</CODE> configure switch.
 The following instructions are for the tcsh case but the savy *NIX user should be able
 to <em>guess</em> the needed changes. The environment file for bash adds an additional
 <CODE>.sh</CODE> suffix to the tcsh environment filename.
 </p>
 </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>

 <Windows>
 <pre>
 <KBD>D:\my\source&gt; winenv.bat</KBD>
 </pre>

 <p>
 In this example, the script <CODE>winenv.bat</CODE> is executed in the directory
 <CODE>D:\my\source</CODE> under a 4NT shell. Unless stated otherwise, all commands
 appearing in this document should be entered from a 4NT shell (the exception
 is the configure script which has to be run from a cygwin bash shell).
 </Windows>

 <CODE>$SRC_ROOT</CODE> will denote the directory in which the source code
 of OpenOffice.org is stored.

 <a NAME="OverviewofBuildinganIndividualProject"></a>Overview of Building
 an Individual Project
 </H2>
 <p>
 You can use a prebuilt version to build an individual project. Having a
 prebuilt version is necessary because the individual project you want to
 build could depend on other projects. A project builds a particular component
 of OpenOffice.org. For example, the Word Processing project builds the Word
 Processing application. To build an individual project, you must follow these
 steps:
 <ol>
   <li> Download the appropriate solver tarballs from the download webpage
     (<a href="http://download.open office.org/index.html">http://download.openoffice.org/index.html</a>)
     e.g., for 643B the solver tarball
     <Linux><CODE>solver643B_linux_intel.tar.gz.</CODE></Linux>
     <Solaris><CODE>solver643B_solaris_sparc.tar.gz.</CODE></Solaris>
     <Windows><CODE>solver643B_win32intel.tar.gz.</CODE></Windows>
     <Win_tcsh><CODE>solver643B_win32intel.tar.gz.</CODE></Win_tcsh>
 	<p>643 is a very old release.  Please use the <a href="../builds/">latest</a>
 	   version.</p>
   </li>

   <li> Check out the modules for the project that you want to build from the
     OpenOffice.org cvs tree. If your project uses the resources module,
     <CODE>res</CODE>, check
     out this module also. You can, of course, also download the entire source
     from the download webpage
     (<a href="http://download.openoffice.org/index.html">http://download.openoffice.org/index.html</a>).
     However, it is not possible to download individual modules there. </li>
   <li> Check out the module <CODE>config_office</CODE>. This is always necessary
     to create the build environment. </li>
   <li> Also check out the modules <CODE>dmake, external, sal, solenv, soltools,
      vos, tools, rsc and xml2cmp</CODE>.
   <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
      These are required by <CODE>bootstrap</CODE> (see below).
   </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
   </li>
   <li> Unpack the solver tarball in the <CODE>$SRC_ROOT</CODE> directory. </li>
   <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
   <li> Run the <CODE>configure</CODE> script to check all requirements and to
     create the settings file
   </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
   <Linux><CODE>LinuxIntelEnv.Set</CODE>.</Linux>
   <Solaris><CODE>SolarisSparcEnv.Set</CODE>.</Solaris>
   <Win_tcsh><CODE>winenv.set</CODE>.</Win_tcsh>
   <Windows>
   <li> Run the <CODE>configure</CODE> script in a cygwin bash shell to
     check all requirements and to create the script <CODE>winenv.bat</CODE>.
   <p>Note that all paths should NOT contain spaces.  This will confuse dmake later.</p>
   </li>
   </Windows>
   <li> Run
     <Linux>in tcsh <CODE>source LinuxIntelEnv.Set</CODE> or in bash
            <CODE>source LinuxIntelEnv.Set.sh</CODE></Linux>
     <Solaris>in tcsh <CODE>source SolarisSparcEnv.Set</CODE> or in bash
              <CODE>source SolarisSparcEnv.Set.sh</CODE></Solaris>
     <Win_tcsh>in tcsh <CODE>source winenv.set</CODE> and <CODE>rehash</CODE>
     afterwards or in bash
               <CODE>source winenv.set.sh</CODE></Win_tcsh>
     <Windows><CODE>winenv.bat</CODE></Windows>
     to set all environment variables and build dmake.exe.
   </li>
   <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
   <li> Create the build tools using <CODE>./bootstrap</CODE>. </li>
   </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
   <li> Build each module against the prebuilt <CODE>solver</CODE> using the <CODE>build</CODE>
     tool, followed by <CODE>deliver</CODE>. </li>

 <h2>
 <a NAME="BuildRequirements"></a>Build Requirements
 </h2>

 <p>
 Before you start building, you must ensure that your system satisfies the
 recommended software and hardware requirements for the type of system you
 are working on. For <Linux>Linux, </Linux> <Solaris>Solaris, </Solaris>
 <Win_tcsh>Windows, </Win_tcsh> <Windows>Windows, </Windows> these are as follows:</p>


 <Linux>
 see <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Build_Linux_Requirements">Linux Build Requirements</a>
 </Linux>

 <Windows>
 see <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Build_Windows_Requirements">Windows Build Requirements</a>
 </Windows>

 <Solaris>
 see <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Build_Solaris_Requirements">Solaris Build Requirements</a>
 </Solaris>


 <H2>
 <a NAME="GetTheSourceCode"></a>Get the source code
 </H2>

 <p>
 You have two options to get the source code:

 <ul>

 <li>
 Download the source code tarball
 (<a href="http://download.openoffice.org/3.1.0/source.html">http://download.openoffice.org/3.1.0/source.html</a>),
 e.g. <CODE>OOo_3.1.0_src_core.tar.gz</CODE> in case of the 3.1 stable release.
 <p>
 Unpack the tarballs as follows:</p>
 <pre>
 <KBD>&gt; tar -xvzf OOo_3.1.0_src_core.tar.gz</KBD>
 <KBD>&gt; cd OOO300m9</KBD>
 </pre>
 <p>This will be $SRC_ROOT from now on. Please check <a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Getting_It">the OpenOffice.org Wiki</a> for more detailed information about the source tarballs.</p>
 </li>

 <li>
 Another possibility is to check out the code from the subversion tree.

 The non-bold slash means that the command should be in one line. It is
 possible to update an already existing older copy to a newer release:
 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; svn</KBD> /
 <KBD>    co svn://svn.services.openoffice.org/ooo/tags/OpenOffice_3_1_0</KBD> /
 </pre>
 </li>

 <li>
 <p>
 A note on the tags (i.e. the argument to the -r option in the cvs commands listed above):
 If <em>trunk</em> is used as a tag, you will get the newest latest source code. This,
 however, will most likely not build since development is going on there.
 See <a href="http://tools.openoffice.org#CWS">http://tools.openoffice.org#CWS</a>
 for a description of the development process with child workspaces and

 <a NAME="GeneratingtheBuildEnvironmentandBuildTools"></a>Generating the Build
 Environment and Build Tools
 </H2>

 <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 <p>
 The <CODE>configure</CODE> script to check/prepare the build environment.
 It checks that all software, hardware, and
 system requirements for the build are satisfied, and creates a
 configuration file called </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh><Linux>
 <CODE>LinuxIntelEnv.Set</CODE></Linux><Solaris>
 <CODE>SolarisSparcEnv.Set</CODE></Solaris><Win_tcsh>
 <CODE>winenv.set</CODE></Win_tcsh><LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 that is used to set all necessary build environment variables. See the example below.
 </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 <Windows>
 <p>
 Ideally, in keeping with the principles of open source, you would use an open
 source shell to build on a computer running a Win32 operating system.
 However, you
 decided to use a non-open source shell to build on a computer running a Win32
 operating system: the 4NT command shell. </p>
 <p>
 On the other hand, the <CODE>bash</CODE> shell from the cygwin tools is needed to run
 the <CODE>configure</CODE> script which generates the build environment.  The
 <CODE>configure</CODE> script checks that all software, hardware, and system
 requirements for the build are satisfied, and it creates a configuration file
 called <CODE>winenv.bat</CODE> that sets all necessary
 build environment variables and builds the <CODE>dmake.exe</CODE>.
 See the example below.
 </Windows>

 <p>
 This configuration file is created in the <CODE>SRC_ROOT</CODE> directory.
 A top-level makefile script <CODE>makefile.mk</CODE> <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh> and the
 script <CODE>bootstrap</CODE> from the <CODE>config-office</CODE> directory </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 are moved into <CODE>SRC_ROOT</CODE> as well. This is due to technical reasons:
 The <CODE>SRC_ROOT</CODE> directory in the cvs tree can only hold directories.
 On the other hand, the top-level <CODE>makefile.mk</CODE> should logically be
 placed in the top-level directory <CODE>SRC_ROOT</CODE>. The cvs tree holds
 these files in <CODE>config_office</CODE> and <CODE>configure</CODE> copies
 them up.
 <LinuxSolaris>

 <p>
 If you are running a compiler with a non-standard name or location
 make sure that the environment variables CC and CXX point to your
 c and c++ compiler. (This can also be used to to use <CODE>ccache</CODE>
 to reduce your compile time.)
 </p>

 </LinuxSolaris>
 <Linux>
 <pre>
 <KBD>export CC=/your/path/to/gcc</KBD>
 <KBD>export CXX=/your/path/to/g++</KBD>
 </pre>
 </Linux>
 <Solaris>
 <pre>
 <KBD>export CC=/your/path/to/cc</KBD>
 <KBD>export CXX=/your/path/to/CC</KBD>
 </pre>
 </Solaris><LinuxSolaris>


 <p>To run the <CODE>configure</CODE> script, type the following command:</p>

 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; cd config_office</KBD>
 <KBD>config_office&gt; ./configure</KBD>
 </pre></LinuxSolaris>

 <Win_tcsh>
 <p>
 Before running configure, make sure that all needed Programs are in the system path
 or start configure with the appropriate command line switches.
 <p>
 The following should demonstrate in detail what steps have to be done to
 set up the environment. For this examples we assume that
   <ul>
     <li>
       the source code is in <CODE>C:\OOO300_m9</CODE>
     </li>
     <li>
       JDK 1.4.1_02 is installed in <CODE>C:\j2sdk1.4.1_02</CODE>
     </li>
     <li>
       the Microsoft Compiler is located in
       <CODE>C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~1.NET\Vc7</CODE>
       (or <CODE>c:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7</CODE>)
     </li>
     <li>
       the Microsoft SDK is located in <CODE>C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~5</CODE>
     </li>
   </ul>

 <H3>Other Shells - Example</H3>
 <b>You are able to enable the use of tcsh
 with <CODE>--with-use-shell=tcsh</CODE> or the use of bash with <CODE>--with-use-shell=bash</CODE></b>.

 <p>
 To run the <CODE>configure</CODE> script, type the following command:

 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; cd config_office</KBD>
 <KBD>config_office&gt; ./configure --with-cl-home="/cygdrive/c/Programme/Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003/Vc7"</KBD>
 <KBD>--with-jdk-home=/cygdrive/c/j2sdk1.4.1_02 --with-use-shell=tcsh</KBD>
 </pre>
 </Win_tcsh>

 <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh><p>
 There are a number of options that you can use with the
 <CODE>configure</CODE>
 script. To display these options, type the following command:
 </p>

 <pre>
 <KBD>config_office&gt; ./configure --help</KBD>
 </pre>
 </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>

 <Windows>
 <p>
 The following should demonstrate in detail what steps have to be done to
 set up the environment:</p>
 <b>As 4nt is not the only possible shell, you have to enable the use of 4NT
 with <CODE>--with-use-shell=4nt</CODE></b>
 <ul>
   <li>
   <p>
   Run the configure script according to the following example. We
   assume here that</p>

   <ul>

     <li>
       the source code is in <CODE>C:\OOO300_m9</CODE>
     </li>
     <li>
       JDK 1.4.1_02 is installed in <CODE>C:\j2sdk1.4.1_02</CODE>
     </li>
     <li>
       the Microsoft Compiler is located in
       <CODE>c:\Programme\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7</CODE>.
     </li>
     <li>
       and your zip.exe and unzip.exe are in <CODE>C:\unzip</CODE>
     </li>

   </ul>

   <p>
   Running the configure script could then look like the following (bold typed
   text is what you enter):

   <p>
   <CODE>
   (open a cygwin bash shell)
   <br>
   <b>cd /cygdrive/c/OOO310_m11/config_office</b>
   <br>
   <b>./configure --with-cl-home="/cygdrive/c/Programme/Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003/Vc7" --with-jdk-home=/cygdrive/c/j2sdk1.4.1_02 --with-unzip-home=/cygdrive/c/unzip --with-use-shell=4nt</b>
   <br>
   .
   <br>
   .
   <br>
   .
   <br>
   (some screen output here)
   <br>
   .
   <br>
   .
   <br>
   .
   <br>
   (more screen output here)
   <br>
   bash-2.02$ <b>exit</b>
   <br>
   </CODE>
   </p>
 </li>

 </ul>

 You should exit the bash shell. Now you can run the environment
 settings file <CODE>winenv.bat</CODE> from your 4NT shell.

 <p>
 Note the change in pathname notation. Since the cygwin bash
 shell won't accept backslashes, paths have to be typed in a
 cygwin bash notation which is <CODE>/cygdrive/c/path/to/file</CODE>,
 instead of <CODE>C:\path\to\file</CODE>. This may appear
 confusing at the moment, but sticking to this notation will
 work.

 <p>
 There are a number of further options that you can use with the
 <CODE>configure</CODE> script. To display these options, type
 the following command:

 <pre>
 <KBD>config_office&gt; bash configure --help</KBD>
 </pre>
 </Windows>


 <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 <p>
 After running <CODE>configure</CODE>, you have to continue in a tcsh shell:
 </p>
 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; tcsh</KBD>
 </pre>
 <p>
 To create the dmake make utility that is needed for the build of
 OpenOffice.org type the following command:
 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; ./bootstrap</KBD>
 </pre>
 <p>
 Now source the configuration file which sets all environment variables:
 </p>
 <pre>
 </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh><Linux><KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; source LinuxIntelEnv.Set</KBD></Linux><Solaris><KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; source SolarisSparcEnv.Set</KBD></Solaris><Win_tcsh><KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; source winenv.set</KBD></Win_tcsh><LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 </pre>
 <p>Don't forget to run
 </p>
 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; rehash</KBD>
 </pre>
 <p>afterwards.</p>
 </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 <Windows>

 <p>
 After running <CODE>configure</CODE> you have to execute the
 configuration file which sets all environment variables. The generated
 file is called <CODE>winenv.bat</CODE>.
 </p>
 </Windows>

 <p>
 If you experiment with the newest sources from the cvs-tree, mind that updates
 to the configure process may not happen via updates of <CODE>configure</CODE>
 (the script file) but via the files <CODE>configure.in</CODE> and
 <CODE>set_soenv.in</CODE>. The configure script itself is created from
 <CODE>configure.in</CODE> using the
 <CODE>autoreconf</CODE> command. The perl script set_soenv is created when you
 run configure from set_soenv.in.
 </p>

 <p>If you need to modify or create a correct configure you would run commands
 like the following: <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 </p>
 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; cd config_office</KBD>
 <KBD>config_office&gt; cvs update configure.in</KBD>
 <KBD>config_office&gt; autoreconf</KBD>
 </pre>
 </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 <Windows>
 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; cd config_office</KBD>
 <KBD>config_office&gt; cvs update configure.in</KBD>
 get a bash shell
 <KBD>config_office&gt;bash autoconf</KBD>
 exit the bash shell
 </pre>
 </Windows>

 To update the <CODE>configure</CODE> script. If you only use code from the
 snapshot releases on the web, you don't need to be concerned about this.

 Now you are ready to build OpenOffice.org. To build the entire suite, all you
 have to do (after having created the environment as described above) is to run
 dmake from the top-level directory. This may take several hours.

 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; dmake</KBD>
 </pre>

 <p>If you wish to control the build more you can perform a build with local
 install sets or tarballs.</p>

 <ul>
 	<li>instsetoo_native will create rpm's or the actual delivery package for
 	   your platform.</li>
 	<li>instsetoo will create a single tar file containing the build however it
 	   is deprecated.</li>
 </ul>

 <pre>
 	cd $SRC_ROOT
 	cd instetoo_native
 	build --all
 </pre>

 <Linux>
 <p>To clean up a previous build you can delete all output directories with</p>
 <pre>
    rm -rf */unxlngi4.pro

 <p>
 If you decide to rebuild a module or build each module individually (mind
 dependencies!), you will have to use the <CODE>build</CODE> tool. A subsequent
 <CODE>deliver</CODE> will copy all created binaries, libraries etc. into the
 solver tree:

 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT/(module)&gt; build</KBD>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT/(module)&gt; deliver</KBD>
 </pre>

 <p>
 The following table shows the time required to build on a system with a
 particular specification. You can use these details to estimate the time
 required to build on your system.</p>

 <Linux>
 <table BORDER="1" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=5>
   <tr VALIGN=TOP>
     <td>Architecture</td>

 <a NAME="BuildingIndividualProjects"></a>Building
 Individual Projects with a Prebuilt
 </H2>

 <p>
 OpenOffice.org is organised in several projects. For example,
 the Word Processing Project. These in turn consist of several
 modules, organised in separate directories. The source contains
 approximately 90 modules.

 <p>
 You can build any project or module individually. Building modules
 individually should not be misunderstood as reducing OpenOffice.org to a
 special application, say, for instance, the spreadsheet application. The
 program will always consist of the entire office suite: text processor,
 spreadsheet, drawing application, etc. Building individual
 modules comes in handy if you want to develop on a certain module.
 Most modules will depend on other modules to be already built.
 In other words, all modules must build in a particular order. To avoid
 building all modules which are prerequisites of the module of your
 interest, you can make use of a prebuilt <CODE>solver</CODE> tree against
 which you can build any module.

 <p>
 For more information on modules and on the sequence that they build in, and
 on the dependencies, see
 <a href="http://tools.openoffice.org/modules.html">tools.openoffice.org/modules.html</a>.

 <p>
 You have to download the <CODE>solver</CODE> tree as a tarball. For example
 <Linux><CODE>solver643B_linux_intel.tar.gz</CODE></Linux>
 <Solaris><CODE>solver643B_solaris_sparc.tar.gz</CODE></Solaris>
 <Win_tcsh><CODE>solver643B_win32int.tar.gz</CODE></Win_tcsh>
 <Windows><CODE>solver643B_win32int.tar.gz</CODE></Windows>
 from the Download page at
 <a href="http://download.openoffice.org/index.html">http://download.openoffice.org/index.html</a>,
 use a current release 643 is very old and only used as an example,
 and unpack it in the <CODE>$SRC_ROOT</CODE> directory, e.g.:
 <pre>
 <Linux>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; tar -xzvf solver643B_linux_intel.tar.gz</KBD>
 </Linux>
 <Solaris>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; gunzip solver643B_solaris_sparc.tar.gz</KBD>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; tar -xvf solver643B_solaris_sparc.tar</KBD>
 </Solaris>
 <WindowsWin_tcsh>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; tar -xvzf solver643B_win32int.tar.gz</KBD>
 </WindowsWin_tcsh>
 </pre>

 <LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 In order to create the build environment and build tools (bootstrap), you
 also have to check out the modules <CODE>config_office, dmake, external,
 xml2cmp, mkdepend, sal, solenv, vos, tools and rscpp</CODE>.
 </LinuxSolarisWin_tcsh>
 <Windows>
 In order to create the build environment and build tools, you also have to
 check out the <CODE>config_office</CODE> module and <CODE>solenv</CODE>.
 </Windows>

 <p>
 To build a project, you build each of its modules individually in their
 directory with the <CODE>build</CODE> tool, followed by <CODE>deliver</CODE>
 to copy the created libraries, binaries etc. into the solver tree:
 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT/(module-name)&gt; build</KBD>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT/(module-name)&gt; deliver</KBD>
 </pre>

 Files called <CODE>build.lst</CODE> in the directories
 <CODE>(module-name)/prj</CODE> contain all information about the
 subdirectories to be build (each of them containing makefiles
 <CODE>makefile.mk</CODE>), about internal dependencies, and also about
 modules the current module depends on. The files
 <CODE>(module-name)/prj/d.lst</CODE> control the actions done by
 <CODE>deliver</CODE>. The last or second to last directory to be build is
 usually <VAR>module-name</VAR><CODE>/util</CODE> which is responsible for
 linking one or more shared libraries.

 <p>
 To rebuild a complete project with debug information, remove all object
 files by removing the
 <Linux><CODE>unxlngi4.pro</CODE></Linux>
 <Solaris><CODE>unxsols3.pro</CODE></Solaris>
 <WindowsWin_tcsh><CODE>wntmsci10.pro</CODE></WindowsWin_tcsh>
 directory. Then run <CODE>build</CODE> with the debug option set to true:

 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT/(module)&gt; rm -rf <Linux>unxlngi4.pro</Linux><Solaris>unxsols3.pro</Solaris><Windows>wntmsci10.pro</Windows></KBD>

 <h2>
 <a NAME="InstallInstructions"></a>Instructions to Build
 an Installation Set
 </h2>

 <p>
 The build process (started with a top-level <CODE>dmake</CODE> or
 <CODE>build --all</CODE> in <CODE>$SRC_ROOT/instsetoo_native</CODE>) will create
 an installation sets in English.
 A simple <CODE>build</CODE> in <CODE>$SRC_ROOT/instsetoo_native</CODE>
 will also create the installation sets, provided all other modules are
 already built.

 <p>
 If you have built an installation set earlier and want to re-build it,
 please delete the local outpath first:
 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT/instsetoo_native&gt; rm -rf <Linux>unxlngi4.pro</Linux><Solaris>unxsols3.pro</Solaris><WindowsWin_tcsh>wntmsci10.pro</WindowsWin_tcsh></KBD>
 </pre>

 <p>
 The English installation set will be located at
 <CODE>$SRC_ROOT/instsetoo_native/<Linux>unxlngi4.pro</Linux><Solaris>unxsols3.pro</Solaris><WindowsWin_tcsh>wntmsci10.pro</WindowsWin_tcsh>/OpenOffice/install/en-US</CODE>.
 Execute the <CODE>setup</CODE> binary to install:
 <pre>
 <KBD>$SRC_ROOT&gt; cd instsetoo_native/<Linux>unxlngi4.pro</Linux><Solaris>unxsols3.pro</Solaris><WindowsWin_tcsh>wntmsci10.pro</WindowsWin_tcsh>/OpenOffice/install/en-US</KBD>
 <KBD><LinuxSolaris>en-US&gt; ./setup</LinuxSolaris><WindowsWin_tcsh>en-US&gt; setup.exe</WindowsWin_tcsh></KBD>
 </pre>

 The en-US in the path names indicates that the localization is American English.
 This value corresponds to the language tags defined by RFC 1766 (Tags for the
 Identification of Languages).
 The German installation set will be located in a de subdirectory. This scheme holds
 true for all localizations you may have chosen explicitly (see next section
 <a href="#BuildingLocalized">Building Localized Versions of OpenOffice.org</a>).

 <p>
 For a network installation, use the <CODE>-net</CODE> option to
 <CODE>setup</CODE>. Details on the network installation process
 can be found at
 <a href="http://installation.openoffice.org/proposals/netinstall.html">
 http://installation.openoffice.org/proposals/netinstall.html</a>
 in the installation project webpage.

 <H2>
 <a NAME="BuildingLocalized"></a>Building Localized Versions of OpenOffice.org
 </H2>

 <p>
 Running the configure script with the --with-lang option will introduce the build
 of additional language resources. This switch accepts one or more RFC 1766 language
 tags as arguments, unfortunately not all languages are supported. Check the value
 of the <CODE>completelangiso</CODE> macro in <CODE>$SRC_ROOT/solenv/inc/postset.mk</CODE>
 for all the currently supported language tags.
 </p>
 <p>
 Example: <CODE>--with-lang="de fr"</CODE> enables the build of the localized german and
 french version.
 </p>
 <p>
 The environment variable <CODE>WITH_LANG</CODE>
 will then contain the language tags of the additional (en-US will always be build)
 languages.
 </p>

 <br><br><br>


 <H2>
 <a NAME="BuildingLangpack"></a>Building Localized Language Packs
 </H2>

 <p>
 If you build additional localized languages it is possible to generate Language Packs
 that contain only the changes needed to add the additional language to an OpenOffice.org
 of a different language.
 </p>
 <p>
 The following commands will generate language packs languages that were specified
 with the --with-lang switch during the configure phase. Note that you can only build the
 language packs <b>after</b> you have build the complete office with all selected
 languages.
