Matúš,

I had intended to come back much earlier with feedback on your feature/gbuild_cppuhelper branch, but the situation turns out to be somewhat problematic: I set out with a recent master (including Michael Stahl's fix for adding the ".3" at the end of libuno_*.dylib install names) on Mac OS X and cherry-picked the two commits from the feature/gbuild_cppuhelper branch on top of it. Two problems I identified so far are:

- cppuhelper/CppunitTest_cppuhelper_qa_weak.mk cannot be included in the build, as it depends on module bridges (cppu::getCaughtException needs the C++ UNO bridge library), which already depends on module cppuhelper. A short-term solution is probably to disable the test again (it looks like it was not enabled before gbuild'ification, right?).

- odk/pack/checkbin fails, complaining about missing HTML documentation files for various entities from cppuhelper. It appears that autodoc cannot correctly parse things like

  /** ... */
  class CPPUHELPER_DLLPUBLIC AccessControl { ... };

to associate the documentation comment with class AccessControl, so HTML documentation for cppu::AccessControl is missing. (The same autodoc problem already hits salhelper classes like salhelper::Condition, but went unnoticed because odk/util/check.pl fails to check for any salhelper content.) The mid-term solution is certainly to get rid of autodoc (and hope that alternatives are mature enough to have no problem here). A short-term solution might be to adapt odk/util/check.pl to not check for the missing HTML files, and get the mid-term solution in place until LO 3.6.

With those two obstacles out of the way, builds kept failing with strange crashes when running executables that themselves were created during the build, like the help compiler in module helpcontent2 or UNO bridge test code in module testtools. Some of this I could track down to unclean rebuilds, but others remained rather mysterious.

I then went back to a clean recent master (as of this morning), without the feature/gbuild_cppuhelper changesets, and doing a clean build of it fails for me as well, in helpcontent2, sdext, and tail_build. (Curiously, current Mac OS X tinderbox builds apparently only fail in tail_build.) So, it looks like master needs to be fixed first before verification of that branch can continue...

Have a nice Christmas time,
Stephan
