Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 65775
update mozilla bootstrap stuff for a recent mozilla API
Last modified: 2017-05-20 10:47:31 UTC
The mozilla bootstrap stuff in connectivity/source/drivers/mozab/bootstrap uses an old mozilla API, so it is not easy to compile it against recent sources, preferably against Gecko SDK. Would be possible to update it for the new API or are there many other problems?
The driver can be compiled against Mozilla sources present in the system, and against a patched Mozilla 1.7.x. For parts of the functionality, the patches are essential. So while I'm absolutely open to changing the bootstrap code to a more recent API, this needs to happen relative to the 1.7.x branch. Alternatively, we could move to a lter release, too, but that's a different story which I did not yet find time to embark on. And probably, I won't find this time, soon ....

for the record: Ongoing work in CWS moz2seamonkey01 will update the Mozilla sources to SeaMonkey 1.1.12 - which is certainly not the most recent one, but better than nothing, hopefully ...
