Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 19048
OOo sourcecode support VC++ .NET 2003, Not only VC++ 2002
Last modified: 2010-10-23 15:42:11 UTC
(Note: sorry if I cannot find correct location for this issue belongs to) I am very concern about Visual C ++ .NET 2003 issue which CAN NOT used for Ooo development, because : 1. Now it is not possible to buy Visual Studio (VC++) .NET 2002 anymore. And VS .NET 2003 already in the market more than half year. 2. The Ooo 1.1 will be used til 2.0 coming which is about 18 month. And will be more people are using Visual C ++ 2003 which having problem with Ooo. If developer who use VC++ 2003 cannot use it for Ooo, it will be bad. And they will not wait for 2.0 coming. So, I hope somebody find solution for this. And hope using Visual Studio .NET 2003 Ooo can become better product. Thankyou very much, Utomo
reassigned. mh->obo: as already spoken, we will provide a patch for 1.1 codeline and will commit changes to 2.0 codeline
set component
This task is identical with #111136#.
There is no #111136#. Or #11136#, is not same issue. I hope we can consider which one to use as main development environtment for Ooo 2.0 - VC++ .net 2004 Not ready for the moments (maybe Feb 2004), didnt know yet the compatibility or improvements, only this info is available http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/productinfo/roadmap.aspx - VC++ .net 2003 Now is available, and have many improvements from 2002. - VC++ .net 2002 Not available anymore in the market. Have some compatibility issue with 2003 or future I guess. - VC++ 6 Is very old already. And is not compatible enough with existing VC++ .net or futre version. Make new developer has many limitation in using the features available in new VC++ version I think better if we use VC++ .net 2004 or VC++ .net 2003 for future compatibility and flexibility, and make developer can utility the new features. And especially because it is for long term. and it is not only dealing with compiling it, but more to the development it. Best regards, Utomo
#111136# is an internal ID which I've used to commit changed files into CVS during .NET 2003 evaluation. BTW: I would suggest, not to add comments which you have already posted on a newsgroup into this task, please. Oliver.
plan is to use up to date compiler for the living codelines. we always have to find a compromise: -if we are close to release we might not take the risk of compiler change -how long will old compilers be supported.
Thanks for the info regarding #111136# I will not post that in here if it is not so important for the future of OO, and because there is no comment in the mailing list. Sorry . Thanks Martin. For OOo 2.0 I think we have enough time to change it to VC++ .net 2004 which I belive it is compatible enough with 2003. or at least use 2003 as base codeline.

Hi Jogi, reassigned to you as spoken.
Utomo> Oliver Bolte: Why it is marked as Fixed ? where is the ConvertDSW ? and this is for 1.1 codeline, not for 2.0. For 2.0 as Martin Hollmichel say: it will use the latest tools (maybe VC++ .net 2003 or 2004 which will come in around Feb 2004) Also the info/ConvertDSW must be available in http://tools.openoffice.org/dev_docs/build_windows.html Thanks
Hi! Target for this task is OOo 2.0. ConvertDSW is commited to tools/contrib/addin/bin_net2003. The patch for OOo 1.1 is created and will be tested by Sander asap. . This will be announced when its verifiyed.

Regarding Visual Studio .net 2004 schedule it is not released in February 2004, sorry. please read info below. http://news.com.com/2100-1016-5057063.html?tag=nl
Hi Sander, for the OOo 1.1 patch checking (based on SRX645 m18) I've reassigned this task to you. Bye, Oliver.
Hi, As this is planned to add patch for 1.1 (as oliver say), do we better to change the target to OOo 1.1.1 instead of 2.0 ? so after Sander verified it, maybe we can build 1.1.1 using .net 2003 (maybe will produce better code than .net 2002) CMIIW. Thanks
