Had to comment out a little bit of code in 56 xlhtml.c and ppthtml.c that used dir.h - this is no longer 57 available. The code was getting the drive letter from the filename, 58 then setting the default drive to that letter. 59 60 61 2. TEMPORARY SHIFT TO xlhtml 0.5 (required too much effort modifying 62 Linux configure and makefiles to get this to readily configure and 63 compile from source code, so later we would shift a step back to 64 xlhtml.0.4.9.0: 65 66 http://trac.greenstone.org/browser/main/trunk/greenstone2/build-src/packages/xlhtml/xlhtml-0.5-gs.tar.gz?rev=22137 67 68 Revision 22137, 280.8 KB (checked in by ak19, 2 months ago) 69 70 Dr Bainbridge got xlhtml (including ppthtml) compiling on XP 71 again. The executables work on Vista, Windows7 and XP. 72 73 74 3. http://trac.greenstone.org/browser/main/trunk/greenstone2/build-src/packages/xlhtml/xlhtml-0.4.9.0-gs.tar.gz?rev=22154 75 76 Revision 22154, 301.9 KB (checked in by ak19, 2 months ago) 77 78 1. Undoing commit of xlhtml-0.5 from yesterday and this morning since 79 its Makefiles are entirely different (from 2005 and use automak 80 command and depcomp files regularly). 81 82 2. Replaced this with previously used xlhtml-0.4.9.0, but with all the 83 changes made to xlhtml-0.5 (to get that compiling and running on 84 Windows XP, Vista, Win7) ported into here. 85 86 3. This xlhtml-0.4.9.0-gs.tar.gz file has been tested to work on 87 Vista, XP, Win7 (both executables and compilation). And it has also 88 been tested to compile and run on Linux. 89 90 91 4. Changeset 22155 for main/trunk/greenstone2/build-src/packages/xlhtml/xlhtml-0.4.9.0-gs.tar.gz 92 Timestamp:21.05.2010 20:22:28 (2 months ago) 93 Author:ak19 94 Message: 95 Have switched back to xlhtml-0.4.9.0-gs.tar.gz since the old version 96 compiles on Linux (but it now includes all improvements previously 97 made to xlhtml-0.5.-gs.tar.gz, so that 0.4.9.0 now compiles on Win XP, 98 Vista and 7, as well as on Linux again. 99 100 101 102 *************************************************************** 103 5.

Nor did it run on Vista. 113 114 Files: 1 removed 115 * main/trunk/greenstone2/build-src/packages/xlhtml/xlhtml-0.4.9.0-gs.tar.gz 116 117 * http://trac.greenstone.org/browser/main/trunk/greenstone2/build-src/packages?rev=22157 118 119 120 b) http://trac.greenstone.org/changeset/22146 121 122 Changeset 22146 123 Timestamp: 21.05.2010 14:10:52 (2 months ago) 124 Author: ak19 125 126 Message: 127 1. In version xlhtml-0.5, there's a Makefile.am which needs depcomp to 128 be generated which is done by making configure call: automake -a 129 -c. 130 131 2. In Makefile.in and Makefile, needed to update the references to 132 xlhtml.0.4.9 to refer to xlhtml-0.5 instead, just as was done with 133 configure in the previous commit. 134 135 Location: main/trunk/greenstone2/build-src/packages 136 Files: 3 modified 137 * Makefile (modified) (1 diff) 138 * Makefile.in (modified) (1 diff) 139 * configure (modified) (1 diff) 140 141 142 THEN: 143 c) http://trac.greenstone.org/changeset/22154 144 Changeset 22154 145 Timestamp: 21.05.2010 20:20:11 (2 months ago) 146 Author: ak19 147 Message: Same message as in (3) above. 148 149 Location: main/trunk/greenstone2/build-src 150 Files: * packages/xlhtml/xlhtml-0.4.9.0-gs.tar.gz (added) 151 * win32.mak (modified) (1 diff) 152 153 154 d) http://trac.greenstone.org/changeset/22157 155 156 Files: 3 modified 157 * Makefile (modified) (1 diff) 158 * Makefile.in (modified) (1 diff) 159 * configure (modified) (1 diff) 160 161 Changeset: 22157 162 Timestamp: 21.05.2010 20:33:02 (2 months ago) 163 Author: ak19 164 Message: Same message as in (3) above. 165 166 167 e) http://trac.greenstone.org/changeset/22158 168 Changeset: 22158 169 Timestamp: 21.05.2010 20:37:16 (2 months ago) 170 Author: ak19 171 Message: 172 MODIFIED: main/trunk/release-kits/kits/rk2/ant-scripts/compile.xml 173 Reverting to use xlhtml-0.4.9.0 which has now got all the changes that were made for xlhtml.0.5 (v.0.5 needs depcomp and uses lots of automak(e) calls to compile files on Linux). 174 175 176 177 178 ***************************************************************
