URGENT: Need to build new version based on 4.1.4

There is a bug in my LinkManager changes. Specifically, I made the 
totally newbie mistake of accessing memory based on a pointer without 
allowing for it being null, and it turns out it can be null :-(

The primary report for this is 
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127581, "Writer crashes after 
copying all content".

I would have expected the failure to be some form of access violation. 
However, recent e-mails have convinced me that some paths include catch 
blocks that conceal all exceptions, so it may be the root cause of other 
problems.

I have checked a fix into the trunk, revision 1814994. However, trunk 
has other changes.

The simplest way to check whether other bug reports are due to this is 
to build a version that is identical to 4.1.4 except for the one fix. 
Anything that works with that but not with 4.1.4 is a duplicate. Of 
course, the more duplicates we have the worse the problem and the more 
urgent a fix.

I am going ahead and doing the fix in my 4.1.5 working copy, but 
activating 4.1.5 is a broader decision.

Re: URGENT: Need to build new version based on 4.1.4

Posted by Patricia Shanahan <pa...@acm.org>.
Jim,

I am going to be away from computers for most of the day. If you have 
everything you want tested in 4.1.5 checked in, I would like you to 
trigger a request for general testing.

In particular, anyone who is working a bug report that is a regression 
between 4.1.3 and 4.1.4 should test it with the 4.1.5 branch, regardless 
of the symptoms.

Originally, I expected my null point bug to manifest as an access 
violation, as is the case for the original report. I was monitoring 
bugzilla for any similar reports. From dev@ discussion, I have learned 
there are instances of catching and hiding all exceptions. That means 
data structures could be left in an inconsistent state without AOO 
crashing or the access violation being reported, and almost any symptom 
could result.

Now that I have a bit more time, I wanted to thank Jim for raising the 
question. I really want people to review my code and question anything

The null check inside the mAutoAskUpdateAllLinks test is something of an 
over-reaction on my part, in the direction of defensive programming. 
mAutoAskUpdateAllLinks is only true in two specific cases, both of which 
I have reviewed. The bug was doing the parent look-up outside that if block.

I have tested forcing the parent to null in a debugger. It does not 
crash. I suspect it would not necessarily pick the right parent window 
if multiple windows are open.

Just to be clear:

    SetUserAllowsLinkUpdate(pLink, GetUserAllowsLinkUpdate(parent));

is OK if parent == NULL? That is, does GetUserAllowsLinkUpdate()
work OK if passed NULL? Or, if parent is NULL, should we skip
calling SetUserAllowsLinkUpdate()?

I'm getting "No permission message" when I attempt to access http://home.apache.org/~jim/AOO-builds/AOO-4.1.5-dev-20171120/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.5_Linux_x86-64_install-deb_en-US.tar.gz

I don't use many of the features of OO - merely Writer, simple (trivial) Calc, and occasional Impress, but I will try 4.1.5 for my daily use.

​I was happy that I could build 4.2 recently on Linux-32 without issue! WOO
HOO!

Re "new" features...there is quite a backlog of translations, including
items in the Help section that are now about 3 years in arrears until 4.2.0
is out. Likely many other improvements including the recent DB access
glitch that Damjen fixed. Timewise, I think there is a bit more to do for
4.2.0 but probably not much.

Like others, I'd like to see AOO move on to 4.2.0 rather than 4.1.5.

When you get that error, before clicking "OK", please attach gdb and run

Thanks, I could download and install the build now.

However, the bug [1] is still present for me on Ubuntu 16.04.3 (64bit).

So it is not only an issue when building on Ubuntu 14.04 (like our
buildbots do).

4.2.0-dev builds for Linux64 and Windows... After that will

These are based on HEAD of trunk, ~r1816311. The Linux builds

Sorry, that is very confusing for the user...

The Start Center is part of the program, while the Splash Screen is part
of the startup process.

OK, then where I said "Splash Screen", I meant "Start Center".  

In all cases I have ever seen the Splash Screen immediately transitions to the Start Center screen; on Forum we usually refer to the "Start Center" as the Splash Screen.

This is the Splash Screen:

This is the Start Center:

The "GailWindow" message is from opening in a Terminal, the "General error" message is from opening from either the Splash Screen or from double clicking an .odt file. If I start Writer directly, then pick a file off Recent Documents, I get the "general error" message; click on this and the file opens correctly.

Just a FYI that so far, my 4.2.0 tests that haven't been uploaded
yet seem to work under 10.7.5!


Re: AOO 4.2.0-dev builds

Posted by Jim Jagielski <ji...@jaguNET.com>.
I think the current version wasn't built supporting 10.7... I think
what I've uploaded just was for 10.8 and later. I'm working on getting
10.7 and 4.2.0 totally happy together.

I have my 2 CentOS6 build VMs up and running. I am attempting
to build 4.2.0 (trunk) on the 64bit CentOS 6.9 VM 1st.

The more I think about it, I agree that deprecating CentOS5 for 4.2.x is the
Right Way To Go.

I plan on creating 2 CentOS6 VMs this weekend: one 64 and the other 32bit.
I'll put the CentOS5 VMs "on storage" for 4.1.x.

Re: AOO 4.2.0-dev builds

Posted by Damjan Jovanovic <da...@apache.org>.
CentOS 5 is now EOL, even its maintenance updates ended on 31 March 2017. I
think we have to move to CentOS 6.

I made GIO the default VFS searched by configure instead of GnomeVFS, as
that's what everybody has been using for years; AOO is pretty much the only
application still pulling in that ancient package with who knows what
security issues. It was done in this commit:

r1812655 | damjan | 2017-10-19 18:35:49 +0200 (Thu, 19 Oct 2017) | 6 lines
Changed paths:
   M /openoffice/trunk/main/configure.ac

GnomeVFS was deprecated 9 years ago. Make GIO, its replacement,
the default searched by configure.ac instead.

----

If we really need GnomeVFS back, we can revert that commit, or use
./configure switches to favor GnomeVFS over GIO.

Re: AOO 4.2.0-dev builds

True, but not ALL dependencies... for example, we require egrep :)

But Zip 3.0.0 is one specifically checked for:

It does look like all previous builds, up to and including 4.1.4 were done on
CentOS5 (for the released binaries).

So the question is that w/ 4.2.0, do we no longer support CentOS 5 as a
supported build platform. Another dependency seems to be GIO, but we
can build w/o that. But is that really an option for our community builds??

I thought we add all dependencies to the build process. (thats why our

I thought the only distibution dependency is the build environment.
Maybe I am wrong. If so I do not understand how CentOS5 can be 
compatible to everything else.

Re: AOO 4.2.0-dev builds

Posted by Larry Gusaas <la...@gmail.com>.
Installed 4.2.0-dev on my 2015 MacBook Pro, macOS Sierra 10.12.6, Java jdk-9.0.1. No legacy Java.
Database works fine.

On my 2013 MacBook Pro macOS High Sierra 10.13.1, Java jdk-9.0.1, AOO 4.2.0-dev the database is 
still working after uninstalling legacy Java 6.

I have not clue why database wouldn't open with 4.2.0-dev until I installed Apple's legacy Java 
6. Nothing else was changed.
Some strange anomaly on instalation.

Anyways, I have no problems with 4.2.0-dev  on two different computers.

Larry

The 4.1.4 spreadsheet bug is fixed in 4.2.0

At first, database wouldn't open at all. Had to reinstall the legacy Apple Java 6. Database 
then worked. 4.1.4 worked without having the legacy Apple Java 6 installed on my computer. I 
have the latest Java 9 installed. 4.2.0 sees Java 9 in the preferences but won't open database 
without legacy Java.

We should move to CentOS 6. I've explained it in detail at 
https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127513 more than 3 months ago 
and I'll happily discuss this in a thread bearing an appropriate title.

For any further 4.1.x release (if need be) I would definitely stick with 
CentOS 5; changing would not make sense. But for trunk there is no 
reason to delay the upgrade, see again my issue above.

   Andrea.

Question: Is CentOS 5 still our preferred version, or should we deprecate
CentOS5 for CentOS 6?

There are some things that 4.2.0 requires requires some updated 3rd party
libs, like zip 3.0.0 or later, etc.

If I had to vote, I'd say w/ assume (and stay w/) CentOS 5 since the upgrade to
CentOS 6 will likely cause a lot of potential for regressions.

That sounds like this issue:

It would be interesting if it only affects builds based on Ubuntu
(14.04). Can someone build 4.2.0 on CentOS under release conditions?

It's a bit difficult since neither the OP nor joesch describe the steps to test DDE in https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=127601

However if the idea is to load dde-test.odt and then Update the values so that the values in odt reflect a change in the ods, then I do not get a crash but the values are never updated under Windows 10 (see attached image).

In fact these values are not updated regardless of the AOO or LO version used under Windows 10...

Great!

Additionally I switched our Windows buildbot to branch 415:
https://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/install/win41x/

My personal builds are still available here:
https://home.apache.org/~mseidel/AOO-builds/AOO-415-Dev/

Let's test! ;-)

we have already 3 reports with some higher impacts (at least thats what 
I've seen so far) that results in some "difficulties" from 4.1.4. IMHO 
it would not be good to say we will fix them with 4.2.0 when it's not 
sure when it will be ready.

Re: AOO 4.1.5-dev builds

Posted by Patricia Shanahan <pa...@acm.org>.
I don't think we should wait for more development before releasing fixes 
for the 4.1.4 regressions. If 4.2.0 needs another month or so of 
development, I'm in favor of releasing 4.1.5 as soon as we can get the 
various bug reports checked against it.

On a side note, for those living outside the US, tomorrow is the US 
Thanksgiving Day. It starts what is, for many people, a four day 
weekend. Even today, some of us are involved in preparations - I need to 
arrange furniture to seat 14 for dinner tomorrow. Do not expect too much 
US open source involvement for a few days.

I don't recommend releasing 4.2.0 immediately; maybe in a month or 2 after
my PostgreSQL driver and several other outstanding projects are complete.

I'll give you a summary of my own changes in trunk for the past year or so;
it's been a quiet year compared to the 2 years before it, and I've made at
least 365 total commits to trunk since AOO was an incubator project. You
can see why I want the improvements to get out there and people to use them:

Database connections through ODBC don't crash on 64 bit.
oowintool detects Java 8, and finds VC++ on Cygwin64.
Fixes for several fvt tests; they now pass.
Newer versions of JUnit work with Hamcrest for subsequent tests.
Database connections using JDBC now use the new driver rewritten in Java,
with tons of bug fixes and high reliability (Java doesn't corrupt memory,
reports exceptions instead of crashing).
New driver for the PostgreSQL database, supporting the advanced features
like relationships, views, keys, constraints, etc. (Development ongoing)
Buggy DXF files no longer crash AOO.
Various dependency improvements, eg. cairo and pixman are downloaded if
enabled and and system libraries aren't used.
Drop a dependency on ORbit which was last needed in 2003.
GIO instead of GnomeVFS (deprecated 9 years ago) is now the default backend
on GTK-based desktops.
Java's ComponentBase base class for UNO components now has isDisposed() and
checkDisposed() methods.
ComponentBase locking on disposal fix.
Require Apache Commons Lang for the build.
#i32546# - Java UnoRuntime.getUniqueKey/generateOid do not work reliably
Remove some incorrect API documentation for the
com.sun.star.sdbc.SQLException ErrorCode field.
We need the system Apache Commons Lang to be version 3.x.
Write a main/ant.properties file from main/set_soenv, which can be used in
Ant projects to work out settings, locations, and paths to dependencies
without getting them from a parent build tool (dmake/gbuild), which allows
Ant projects to build by themselves,  independently of AOO, and allows them
to be cleanly opened in (at least) Eclipse.
Remove the obsolete KDE address book SDBC driver, that only worked on KDE
3.2 - 3.6, which are obsolete since 9 years ago.
Update AnyConverter.toObject() to use Java 1.5+'s generics.
If called on an empty collection, don't let
OEnumerationByIndex.nextElement() call XIndexAccess.getByIndex() with an
invalid index, just like OEnumerationByName.nextElement() doesn't.
Fix some comment typos in javaunohelper's PropertySet.java,
Update javaunohelper's MultiTypeInterfaceContainer.java to use generics,
and fix performance bugs in getContainer() where O(n) iteration over all
keys was being done instead of an O(1) map.get(), and in
getContainedTypes() where iteration over keys and then n calls to map.get()
for the value was being done instead of iteration over entries.
Java boxing optimization and cleanups for l10ntools.
Use more efficient Java boxing in main/filter.
Use more efficient Java boxing for basic types in main/bean.
Add some Java performance optimizations with boxing of basic types: instead
of using "new <Type>(<value>)", use <Type>.valueOf(<value>), or better yet,
rely on autoboxing.
Add initial support for building AOO with Clang on Linux.
We need to pass "-DEBUG" to the linker on Windows for debugging to work.
When debug symbols are produced for C / C++ / Objective C, produce them for
Java too.
Add debug symbols to gbuild modules when any of --enable-debug,
--enable-symbols, or --enable-crashdump are passed to ./configure (just
like it already is for dmake modules), as opposed to the previous behaviour
of only doing it on --enable-debug.
Fix a FreeBSD regression in the gbuild gb_CPUDEFS variable caused by
r1773166, where it was always set to POWERPC64 due to a swapped if-else.
Don't use the "archive" package format, which is to be extrated by
smoketest as a side effect, for the subsequent tests. The smoketest is
currently broken and won't do that, and the path is wrong anyway. Instead,
use the office instance from the "installed" package format for subsequent
tests, as it doesn't have to zipped up and unzipped, resulting in faster
building and faster testing, and doesn't require a side effect.
Pass "-encoding UTF8" to javac, as some Java sources, particularly those
used in subsequent tests, contain special characters that are encoded in
UTF-8, and fail to compile without this option.
Correlate the Perl modules tested for in bulk with the Perl modules tested
for individually to be reported as missing, so that those reported as
missing are correct.
Add a main/sd subsequent test that wasn't hooked into the build.
Fix a configure.ac problem with hamcrest detection.
Fix a main/sw subsequent test.
Add a ./configure option for Hamcrest once again, this time optional, so
that newer versions of JUnit can work.
Fix a main/sc JunitTest typo.
Resurrect main/test, which was deleted by liuzhe in r1378870, probably by
accident, and which we need for test.jar and test-tools.jar for subsequent
tests.
Build fixes for vbaobj on Windows.
Fix a missing bracket problem in a main/cui makefile when BUILD_VER_STRING
is set.
Fix a Windows naming clash between main/cui, whose library, icuin.lib, was
clashing with main/icu's icuin.lib once we started using gbuild, which
places libraries in a common directory. The main/cui library is now just
icui.lib, and main/icu's is still icuin.lib.
Only set the BUILD_VER_STRING define if it is available as an environment
variable and non-empty. At least the Windows build breaks without this when
--with-build-version is not used.
The internal CoinMP comes as a single library on Windows.
Add shlwapi32, wsock32, ws2_32 to the list of known Windows DLLs.
Order of library linking fixes on *nix.
Tons of libraries ported to gbuild.
Google Test fixes that were breaking the build on the buildbots.

This is correct but it misses a (probably taken for granted) detail: the 
focus is only on 4.2.0.

Future 4.1.x releases may happen only if we need to fix regressions or 
need to push a security fix. But no feature or "normal" bugfix work 
should happen on 4.1.x any longer.

If we agree on this, then we are probably all on the same page as for 
the roles of 4.1.x and 4.2.0.

   Andrea.

To answer Damjan's question "when are these 4.1.x releases going to

at least until 4.2.0 development is complete.

And at least 1 fix that address all platforms as well, so I do think a 4.1.5 will
be required.

Also, as mentioned on a different thread, the move from 4.1.x to 4.2.x
will mean that some older platforms will likely need to be dropped
and/or deprecated. For example, CentOS 5 lacks GIO-2.0, which means
that it is no longer, afaict, a candidate for our community build server
setup (which is what 4.0 and 4.1 were built on). Also, OS X 10.7
will likely need to be deprecated for 4.2.0.

The long and short is that there are, and possible will be,
some AOO users that cannot move to 4.2.0 and so we should
make sure that our "final" 4.1.x build is as good and solid and as
stable as we can make it.

There are serious regressions in 4.1.4 for Macs. The fix needs to be released now, not wait 
until 4.2.0

We have regressions in 4.1.4. Until we get a fix out in either 4.2.0 or 4.1.5 we will continue to get bug reports. These will distract our volunteers and impact our users.

We owe it to our users to be quick.

Regarding 4.2.0. What are the new features and is everything being worked into trunk complete? If we were to decide to release it “quickly” what needs to be done?

Re: AOO 4.1.5-dev builds

I think to use 4.2.0 directly is causing less regression then to backport  a subset of fixes on the 4.1.x tree and then test for regressions.

If the fix is indeed successfull with the build changes, we should release the new build, and go on.

Exactly my point.

If the idea is to test changes in the build environment with a known good source, it should be enough to run when/if the build environment is modified...

If this can not be controlled/detected then maybe create a env_test folder (and create the respective src, win, linux32 and linux64 folders inside it)

Maybe rename the folders from Snapshot to Development? Both are daily/nightly/weekly builds except one is from Trunk and the other should be from the Development branch. E.g. win_trunk and win_dev ?

Forget these pages, they are built by a useless script on Apache servers.

Currently all informations about our buildbots can be seen here:
https://www.openoffice.org/download/devbuilds.html

We are building trunk daily/nightly and branch (4.1.4) on a weekly base.
That could be easily switched to 4.1.5 although the naming of the bots
wouldn't change. I could try to get more generic names for them in the
future.

That would make a little more sense...

It should be enough to change the Snap buildbots that are currently still building 4.1.2 snapshots on a daily basis (or so I assume since it is impossible for Apache to details of the files but the page is built every day)

https://ci.apache.org/projects/openoffice/install/winsnap/

What's the alternative to going to 4.2.0?

I only test trunk. So it's 4.1.x that lacks testing from me.

We also really should start running the various tests and comparing results
from trunk against 4.1's.

Re: AOO 4.1.5-dev builds

I see 4.1.5-dev as a device for testing whether a bug is due to a 
specific problem. That change is already checked in to the trunk.

We still have to decide whether to go straight to 4.2.0. The upside is, 
as Damjam points out, that we need to get the general benefits of 4.2 
out in the field. The downside is that, because of more changes, 4.2.0 
has a higher risk of regression. Should 4.2.0 go through field beta-testing?

Going to 4.2.0 would simplify my activities. Because of better debug 
building and on general principles, I do my debug and fixing in trunk. I 
then have to back port the fixes to the 4.1.x line.

Thank you, but when are these 4.1.x releases going to stop?

We have so much lined up for 4.2.0.

The update URL is still pointing to 4.1.4:
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice/branches/AOO415/main/instsetoo_native/util/openoffice.lst

Windows builds are ready for testing:

Hi -

Both regressions are fixed in the new build.

Also, it looks like all of the versioning has been changed correctly. At least on the about box and readme files.

I tried to test issue 127600 but I can’t understand what was done in the first place.

Regards,
Dave

Hi Jim,

I saw that you updated the metadata for 4.1.5.

One file is still missing, see:

 +1 for testing together.  If it doesn't work we can go into analysis.

I see you have checked in some Mac building changes. Would it be better 
to keep the two fixes separate, or encourage testing both of them together?
